	Council of Europe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The seat of the Council of Europe is in Strasbourg on the Franco-German border.
		The Council of Europe is not to be confused with the Council of the European Union or the European Council, as it is a separate organisation and not part of the European Union.
		The Council of Europe is responsible for the notable European flag with 12 golden stars (upward pointing) arranged in a circle on a blue background since 1955, and the anthem based on the Ode to Joy in the final movement of Ludwig van Beethoven's Ninth symphony since 1972.

		Instead, the Council of Europe and the EU should be working cooperatively to ensure the highest protection of the rights of trafficked persons", Amnesty International and Anti-Slavery International said.
		It is expected that, following the CAHTEH meeting, the Council of Europe's Committee of Ministers will forward the text of the draft European Convention against Trafficking to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), requesting their opinion by the end of January 2005.
		After consideration of this Opinion, it is likely that the Committee of Ministers will then adopt the European Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings in March 2005, and that the treaty will be opened for signature at the Council of Europe's Third Summit of Heads of State and Government in May 2005.

		The call comes as a drafting group of representatives of the 46 Council of Europe member states (known as the CAHTEH) are due to begin their last meeting in Strasbourg on 22 February to finalise the draft European Convention Against Trafficking in Human Beings.
		Council of Europe member states must set a high standard when it comes to protecting trafficked peoples' rights - rather than settling for the lowest common denominator standards,” said Mary Cunneen, Director of Anti-Slavery International, which has been working to eradicate slavery for over 160 years.
		This will require that most of the states agree to include provisions in the Council of Europe treaty which are more protective of the rights of trafficked persons than those set out in their national law or EU legislation.

		The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe should use the opportunity of its session on 5-6 November 2003 in Chisinau/Moldova to address the human rights situation in the Chechen Republic in a manner demanded by the gravity of the abuses there.
		The Parliamentary Assembly (PACE), in recommendation 1600 of 2 April 2003 to the Committee of Ministers, considered that so far the efforts by all actors involved have failed to improve the human rights situation and to ensure that past human rights violations, and particularly war crimes, are adequately prosecuted.
		The Committee of Ministers has ignored this assessment, and has instead preferred to put all its stake on the so-called “political solution” of the conflict as designed by the Russian authorities.

		Andres Herkel, rapporteur on Belarus and Chairman of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe's (PACE) Belarus subcommittee, said on April 13 that elections in the former Soviet republic should be held again, since the previous ballot, which ended with a landslide win for incumbent President Alexander Lukashenko, was problematic and opaque for observers.
		It is particularly alarming that the decision on April 26 by the Council of Ministers broke the culture of consensus, ignoring the opinion of the side in disagreement with the majority," the statement said.
		Lukashenko, dubbed "Europe's last dictator" by Washington, was re-elected for a third presidential term on March 19 with 83% of the vote.
