Paragraph
Paragraph text
The Special Rapporteur intends to develop his cooperation with regional courts which, especially on the basis of new provisional measures, make it possible to ensure protection of defenders, particularly those who are threatened with refoulement or being deported to countries at risk. Numerous accounts received have shown the effectiveness of such measures, since States have an obligation to implement them and suspend such deportations.
