The UN Human Rights Committee has published its findings on the civil and political rights record of countries it examined during its latest session: Angola, Eritrea, Estonia, Niger, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Viet Nam.

The findings, officially termed concluding observations, contain positive aspects of the respective State’s implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), and also main matters of concern and recommendations.

The concluding observations are now available on-line on the 125th session Web page.

The UN Human Rights Committee will next meet from 1 to 26 July, 2019, to review Equatorial Guinea, Mauritania, Netherlands, Nigeria, Paraguay, and Tajikistan. More information is available on the 126th session Web page.
