considered independent, such as the High Commission for Human Rights, the High Electoral
Commission and others.
Lack of respect for national legislation and the non-application of international conventions in all
their forms, such as the constitutional provisions and various laws for safeguarding human rights,
whatever the circumstances a person is in, even in the event of imprisonment.
Limited or lack of ability of interlacing the implementation of combined activities to deter the
policies leading to a lower level of security, especially at the level of neighboring countries.
The non-commitment of the state to implement international obligations indicating the weakness of
the international authority and its inability to enforce international law.
Persistence of regulations [based] on traditions and laws of the totalitarian dictatorship, and the
discouragement of radical change and changes to the previous laws.
The impact of controlled media and the absence of the role of ethnic and religious minorities by
their continued displacement.
