Summary
The Human Rights and Democracy Network (HRDN), a Brussels-based NGO network, welcomes the new EU Human Rights package adopted on 25 June 2012.
HRDN hopes that the package will be implemented in an accountable and transparent way and stresses that the appointment of a new EU Special Representative on Human Rights should not limit the obligations and responsibilities of all EU member states in promoting human rights within the EU and worldwide.
