   They plan to abandon the "European Convention for the Prevention of Torture   
   and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment and its protocols."   
      
   On August 25, 2025, the official internet portal for legal information   
   published a resolution from the government of the Russian Federation from   
   August 23, 2025, No. 1266. This resolution approves and submits a proposal to   
   the president of the Russian Federation to be presented to the State Duma of   
   the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation to terminate the European   
   Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or   
   Punishment of November 26, 1987, and the corresponding protocols of November   
   4, 1993, which were signed on behalf of the Russian Federation in Strasbourg   
   on February 28, 1996.   
      
   It's six of one, half a dozen of the other. They already don't adhere to the   
   treaty, so what's the difference? It's more honest to officially terminate it.   
   Then, at least you can't be accused of never keeping your agreements, a trait   
   that is very characteristic of the Russians.
