INTERNATIONAL REPORTS
Anti-Roma hate crime, Anti-LGBTI hate crime
In its "Resolution on the 2018 Commission Report on the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia", the European Parliament urged the authorities to effectively address hate crime against minorities, in particular, the Roma and the LGBT communities, and to ensure the effective protection of affected communities and dissuasive sanctions for these hate crimes.
KEY OBSERVATION
ODIHR observes that the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia has not nominated a national point of contact on hate crimes.
