Proposition de loi relative à l'adoption de mesures restrictives nationales en cas de graves violations des droits de l'homme ou de graves atteintes à ces droits.

This is a Belgian parliamentary bill (proposition de loi) submitted to the Chamber of Representatives. It would allow Belgium to adopt its own restrictive measures, such as sanctions, against individuals, entities or states responsible for serious human rights violations or serious abuses of those rights. The aim appears to be giving Belgium a national legal basis to act in this area, beyond measures agreed at EU or UN level. The bill would mainly affect foreign individuals and organisations suspected of grave human rights abuses, and the Belgian authorities responsible for applying such measures. Businesses with dealings in targeted areas could also be indirectly affected. Based on metadata only; the full text may contain details not reflected here.
