Summary/Abstract: The October 1993 Vienna Summit of Heads of State and Government of the member States of the Council of Europe laid down a mandate for the Council of Europe concerning the protection of national minorities. The various measures envisaged were essentially of two kinds. The first category of measures were the definition of legal norms and standards. The opening for signature of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities, together with the encouraging number of member States which signed immediately, testifies to the significant progress already made in carrying out this part of the Vienna Summit’s mandate.
