The Council of Europe (CoE) has initiated proceedings against Serbia and eight other countries. The reason is their "overall unsatisfactory" implementation of recommendations for preventing corruption among parliamentarians, judges and prosecutors. The recommendations were made by the Group of States against Corruption of the Council of Europe (GRECO), which operates within the Council of Europe, and whose annual report was published today in Brussels and Strasbourg, warning that there has been "a reversal of progress in the fight against corruption." In addition to Serbia, the non-compliance procedure has been launched against Belgium, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Portugal, Romania, Spain, and Turkey. Mia Nikolic Reports.
