The statement added that all relevant organisations and institutions working to advance the human rights agenda - "such as embassies, state agencies, and regional LGBT organisations" - would be invited to join the activities of the working body.
An updated annual report, “Rainbow Europe Index 2011,” by the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association, ILGA–Europe, puts FYROM at the bottom of the Balkans when it comes to legal protection for the LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual] community.
FYROM scored only -2 on a scale from 17 to -7, with 17 as the highest score and -7 as the lowest, meaning a country characterised by “gross violations of human rights and discrimination” against the gay community.
