AI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source
The report now strongly condemns secessionist actions by RS leaders, calls for sanctions, and supports EUFOR's role. It adds extensive new paragraphs on foreign interference, disinformation, and the need for reforms in justice, anti-corruption, and public administration. It expands sections on human rights, including gender-based violence, minority protections, and media freedom. It adds detailed provisions on migration, reconciliation, and economic and environmental policies, including the Growth Plan and energy diversification. The other changes are formal or wording: updated recitals and rephrased paragraphs.
