of application of two documents of the Council of Europe: “Governing
Principles in the Sphere of Human Rights and Struggle against
Terrorism” and “Protection of Victims of Terrorist Attacks”, adopted
correspondingly in July 2002 and March 2005. Rendering assistance to
the victims of terrorist attacks and the possibility to exchange

the further activity of the Council of Europe in that direction in
view of successful experience of countries-members of the Council of
Europe.
