In the article, the authors consider two main forms of cooperation in the field of human rights. According to the authors, a more universal form of cooperation is currently not related to the subordination of the parties to an agreement on human rights to the jurisdiction of an interstate body. The subordination of Russia to such a body must meet a number of conditions that the Council of Europe does not meet. This leads to problems with Russians implementation of the decisions of the ECHR In conclusion, the authors believes that the ECHR is an effective mechanism for the protection of rights and freedoms only for a group of founding states of the Council of Europe, bound by common interests, values, coordinated foreign and domestic policies. The authors believes that Russia needs to return to the rules of international cooperation in the field of human rights set out in Helsinki Final Act on Security and Cooperation in Europe.
