The ELN’s 2014 report on close military encounters between Russia and the West was mentioned in USA Today:
A report in 2014 from the European Leadership Network, a London-based think tank, found at least 40 examples that year of dangerous incidents involving Russian and Western militaries in “violations of national airspace, emergency scrambles, narrowly avoided mid-air collisions and close encounters at sea.”
Sir Adam Thomson, Director of the ELN, was quoted in Foreign Policy.
Roger Hilton argues that European policy makers will have to formulate a new approach, including considering additional sanctions, to counter Russian actions and support Ukraine.
In September 2022 Russia was expelled from the European Convention on Human Rights due to its invasion of Ukraine. Since then, the remaining member states of the Council of Europe have placed a greater importance on stabilising and safeguarding the European Court of Human Rights system, which currently struggles to implement its judgments and ensure compliance. Nikita Gryazin and Julia Glukhikh explore how to best improve the efficacy of the court in the face of these issues.
