The Georgian government often uses statistical data related to the European Court of Human Rights to prove that the country's human rights situation is improving due to its efforts.[1] However, a detailed and objective analysis and contextualization of the same statistical data reveal opposite conclusions.

The given document discusses the enforcement indicators of the decisions made by the European Court of Human Rights against Georgia and the practices revealed in recent years. These practices indicate a tendency towards prolonged and ineffective enforcement of the European Court of Human Rights' judgments, ultimately pointing to the systemic challenges in the field of human rights protection.  The indicators of the enforcement of European Court decisions show that Georgia ranks third from the bottom among Council of Europe member states in terms of unenforced decisions, following Azerbaijan and Serbia. Additionally, the number of unenforced leading cases has increased, with some remaining unenforced for over 10 years. This trend of non-enforcement is particularly concerning in connection with the rights to life and the prohibition of torture, which is especially alarming.
