This procedure examines the recent legal changes in Russia that partially decriminalise domestic violence. It focuses on the impact of these changes on human rights and the protection of victims, questioning whether these measures undermine fundamental freedoms and the safety of individuals within the home.

This primarily affects victims of domestic abuse in Russia, who may face reduced legal protections and limited access to justice. It also concerns international human rights monitoring and the EU's diplomatic response to the situation.
