The committee will be discussing the mechanisms for the protection of fundamental rights during elections in countries with political instability as the Human Rights Council. The delegations demonstrate in their opening speeches how they're all in agreement of providing and receiving the necessary help to ensure the security and protection of all citizens in unstable countries. The debate starts with the Russian Federation explaining the ICCPR, and proposes to follow the example of the United Nations department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs that helps countries with unstable political context. The delegation suggests the involvement of political and democratic experts to report on the elections to the Secretary General to provide assistance with the objective to create a better environment for the elections. The Cote d'Ivoire explains the fundamental rights violated during violence in the elections, the following being the right to vote, to protest, to be elected, to have the same rights and the freedom of speech. These rights should be preserved and taken care of. The Russian Federation presents the types of assistance that might be provided, such as the technical assistance, the support for creating a safe environment involving the military, and the organization and conduct of an electoral process. The delegation also presents multiple options for observation and reporting, including the panel of political experts and electoral observation. The ICCPR articles being violated are studied, including the Article 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9. The fair and good handling of the monetary resources is discussed. The delegation of the United States of America states that military intervention should not be considered unless it is by the UN blue helmets and reminds the committee that the responsibility to ensure the political rights belongs to each government, not to other external delegations. The delegation proposes a new focus, directed to straightening governmental institutions without having the need for a military intervention. The session is suspended.

Continuing with the debate, the Cote d'Ivoire brings attention to the situation of a coup. Coups occur because of an abstaining leader or a not well managed country that leads to worse political stability and citizens that cannot fully fulfill their right to vote. The Russian Federation identifies the methodology in which the states are held in elections and political terms, those being the status quo, investigating the gaps and ambiguities and then listening to suggestions and considering the asistances necessary.The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan proposes a plan where the UN is more than a watcher, with the incorporation of political systems and implicit measures that are long term productions. The solution proposed not only incorporates whistleblowers, but it ensures that the next three elections have the right process where human rights are not violated. The delegation of the United States explains how monetary resources are not the sole solution of the problem if the country cannot even control their own political situation. The delegation believes there are other factors to encourage people to vote, such as a cease fire in the conflict and more safety to voters and to ensure their assistance to the elections. The state not only has to ensure the elections, but also the safety for the people who want to excerpt their fundamental rights to vote. The United States argues about how the government has to provide the people bridges to visit the voting places. The Russian federation proposes solutions such as changing the methodology, bestowing the authority to the UNDPPA.
