Sous-commission Droits de l'homme (DROI) - Parlement européen

On the 22 September 2016, the Chair of the European Parliament's delegation to The Gambia, Mr David Martin, stated that the European Parliament has expressed concerns over the human rights situation in The Gambia in its resolution of May 2016, and went on to say that it has become clear that important provisions of the Gambian constitution still remain to be implemented, especially those on freedom of speech and prisoners' rights.
