UN: Lebanon's move to abolish death penalty affirms right to life
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, praised the Lebanese Parliament's decision to officially abolish the death penalty, confirming that it is an important step committed to the right to life, and that Lebanon has become the first country in the region to take this measure. Türk considered that the decision reflects progress in human rights and urged the swift ratification by the President of the Republic, while also encouraging other countries to follow the same path. The abolition of the death penalty is a historic step in Lebanon, where the last execution was carried out in 2004, and the 2008 law to abolish it has remained unapproved due to the lack of political consensus.
