IPU Ends 102nd Session In Berlin
The 102nd session of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) convened in the Berlin Congress Palace since Oct. 10 with MPs from 138 countries is to wind up works Friday afternoon.
The closing plenary session should adopt several resolutions on the contribution of parliaments to the respect and promotion of international humanitarian law, the need to look again into the current world economic and financial system and peaceful coexistence for ethnic, cultural and religious minorities, including migrant populations within a state, in the respect of principles of human rights and tolerance.
On Thursday, the vice-chairman of the Moroccan house of representatives, Brahim Rachidi, who led Morocco's delegation before Senate Speaker Abdelouahed arrived, addressed the plenary to expound the Moroccan stand on several world issues.
The secretary general of the Moroccan house, Rachid Idriss Kaitouni, was elected Thursday vice-president of the association of parliaments' secretary generals, which acts a legal advice bureau for IPU.
