## RESERVATIONS AND DECLARATIONS FOR TREATY No. 218
COUNCIL OF EUROPE CONVENTION ON AN INTEGRATED SAFETY,
SECURITY AND SERVICE APPROACH AT FOOTBALL MATCHES
AND OTHER SPORTS EVENTS
Declarations in force as of today
**Status as of: 29.10.2026**
### Armenia
Declaration contained in a letter from the Permanent Representative of Armenia, deposited at the time of the signature of the Instrument, on 24 January 2018 - Or. Engl.
The Republic of Armenia makes the following statement with regard to the declaration made by the Republic of Azerbaijan in respect of the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events (hereinafter Convention), signed on 29 November 2016:
1. The declaration of the Republic of Azerbaijan is of a discriminatory nature in respect of the Republic of Armenia and is in contradiction with the purposes established by Article 2 of the Convention as well as with values of the Council of Europe. The Republic of Azerbaijan refrain not only from the obligations set forth in the Convention to apply practical measures for ensuring safety and security during the football matches and other sports events but also blatantly incites discrimination.
2. The declaration of the Republic of Azerbaijan is incompatible with the object and purpose of the Convention and thus being in violation with the provisions of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties of 1969.
3. The Republic of Azerbaijan deliberately misrepresents the essence of the Nagorno-Karabakh issue, with respect to causes and effects of the conflict. The conflict arose due to the policy of ethnic cleansing by the Republic of Azerbaijan followed by the massive military aggression against the self-determined Nagorno-Karabakh Republic - with the aim to repress the free will of the Nagorno-Karabakh population. As a result, the Republic of Azerbaijan has occupied several territories of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
Articles concerned: -
### Azerbaijan
Declaration contained in the Full Powers of signature handed over to the Deputy Secretary General of the Council of Europe at the time of signature of the instrument, on 29 November 2016 - Or. Engl., and confirmed in the instrument of ratification deposited on 11 December 2018 - Or. Engl.
1. The Republic of Azerbaijan declares that the provisions of the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events shall not be applied by the Republic of Azerbaijan in respect to the Republic of Armenia.
2. The Republic of Azerbaijan declares that it is unable to guarantee the implementation of the provisions of the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events in its territories occupied by the Republic of Armenia (the Nagorno-Karabakh region of the Republic of Azerbaijan and its seven districts surrounding that region), until the liberation of these territories from the occupation and the complete elimination of the consequences of that occupation (the schematic map of the occupied territories of the Republic of Azerbaijan is available here).
**3. The Republic of Azerbaijan reserves the right to amend or revoke at any time the provisions of paragraph 1 and paragraph 2 of the present Declaration, and other Parties shall be notified in writing of any such amendments or revocation.**
**Period covered: 01/02/2019 -**
**Articles concerned: -**
### Cyprus
Objection contained in a Note verbal from the Permanent Representation of Cyprus, dated 28 August 2020 and registered at the Secretariat General on 31 August 2020 - Or. Engl.
The Republic of Cyprus has examined the Declaration deposited by the Republic of Turkey on 25 May 2020, upon ratification of the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events (2016, CETS No. 218) and notes with regret that such a declaration is inconsistent with international law and contradicts, inter alia, the binding UN Security Council Resolutions on Cyprus.
Having signed the Convention on 4 May 2017, the Republic of Cyprus is not yet a State Party thereto, as the ratification is pending. Irrespectively, in the view of the Republic of Cyprus, a member state of the United Nations, the European Union, the Council of Europe and other International Organizations, the content and purported effect of this Declaration renders it tantamount to a reservation contrary to the object and purpose of the Convention.
It is the firm position of the Republic of Cyprus that Turkey, by repeatedly undermining the legitimacy of the Republic of Cyprus and promoting the illegal secessionist entity in the occupied part of the Republic of Cyprus, including, through declarations as the present one, holds in contempt international law and the international legal order.
The Republic of Cyprus, therefore, strongly rejects the aforesaid Declaration made by the Republic of Turkey and considers it null and void.

Articles concerned: 5
Objection contained in a Note Verbale from the Permanent Representation of Greece, dated 11 April 2023, deposited with the instrument of ratification on 25 April 2023 - Or. Engl.
The Government of the Hellenic Republic has examined the declaration made by the Republic of Türkiye upon ratification, on 25 May 2020, of the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach to Football Matches and Other Sports Events (CETS No. 218). The Republic of Türkiye declares inter alia that its ratification of the Convention should not imply any obligation on its part to enter into any dealing with the Republic of Cyprus within the Framework of the Convention.
The Government of the Hellenic Republic reiterates its view that the above declaration amounts to a reservation, as it purports to exclude the application of the Convention in its entirety between Türkiye and Cyprus. Such reservation is contrary to the object and purpose of the Convention, which is to provide a safe, secure and welcoming environment at football matches and other sports events, by inter alia promoting international cooperation to that end (Articles 2, 11).
**Therefore, the Government of the Hellenic Republic objects to the said declaration. This objection shall not preclude the entry into force of the Convention between the Hellenic Republic and the Republic of Türkiye .**
