The OSCE is concerned about the reduction of its offices

The  OSCE PA rapporteur  for human rights and migration, the Serbian parliamentarian Gordana Comic expressed concern over the reduction of the OSCE offices in several countries.

Rapporteur Gordana Comic of Serbia expressed her concern for human dimension commitments in the OSCE, in particular the fight against terrorism and protection of human rights, including when dealing with migration issues. The Rapporteur expressed her disappointment on the apparent downward trend regarding OSCE field operations.

Comic said: "We have seen key missions like the OSCE Office in Minsk and the Mission to Georgia closed. And these missions were closed at key points in the human dimension mandate. We have seen the OSCE Office in Baku downgraded to a Project Co-ordinator, thereby reducing its political mandate to monitor and report on commitments in the human dimension." —1606D-
