Roman Udot: "Ох, поторопилась, поторопилась г-жа Вагина приостановить деятельность Ассоциации ГОЛОС. Очень хотелось отчитаться перед заказчиками что удалось заткнуть голос ГОЛОСа. Очень торопилась успеть до приближающихся выборов. А, оказывается, что так нельзя. Вот и Комиссар Совета Европы по правам человека говорит что нельзя: 3.6 Additional observations as to the legislation and its implementation 72. On 25 June 2013, the Ministry of Justice decided to suspend for a six-month period the activities of the Association Golos, based on the provisions of the Law on NCOs.74 The decision was taken due to the organisation’s failure to register as an organisation performing the functions of a foreign agent. The Commissioner has concerns about this decision, in light of Recommendation CM/Rec(2007)14 of the Committee of Ministers to member States on the legal status of non-governmental organisations in Europe, which provides that “the legal personality of NGOs can only be terminated pursuant to the voluntary act of their members […] or in the event of bankruptcy, prolonged inactivity or serious misconduct”. The same principle has been upheld by the Court in Tebieti Mühafize Cemiyyeti and Israfilov v. Azerbaijan.75 Prolonged suspension of the NGO activities would amount to its de facto dissolution, and therefore should apply only in exceptional cases and be proportionate to the offence committed."
