DOI: https://doi.org/10.31178/AUBD.2022.05
Abstract: The
exclusion of a Member State from the Council of Europe is an international
legal sanction subject to international judicial review, of an indirect nature
(with only one exception), carried out either within the Council of Europe (by
the European Court of Human Rights and the Administrative Tribunal) or from
outside (by the International Court of Justice), both by the contentious
function and by the advisory function of the international court (with only one
exception). Judicial review never leads directly to the annulment of the
exclusion act or to the reinstatement of the State as a Member of the Council
of Europe.
Keywords: International Organization, Council of Europe, Member State, exclusion, judicial control, European Court of Human Rights, Administrative Tribunal of the Council of Europe, International Court of Justice.
