The Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities is Europe’s most comprehensive treaty protecting the rights of persons belonging to national minorities. The treaty is in force in 39 states, including Estonia that ratified it on 6 January 1997.

The Council of Europe is an international organisation founded in the wake of the Second World War to uphold human rights, democracy and the rule of law in Europe. Founded in 1949, it has 46 member states and is based in Strasbourg, France.

The Estonian government authorities have yet to comment on the opinion.
