On 20 October 2021, Mr Sergei Glagolev, Deputy Minister of Health (Russian Federation) and Chair of the Committee of Parties to the MEDICRIME Convention, addressed the Committee of Ministers’ representatives to underline the importance of the Convention as the only international instrument on the counterfeiting of medical products and similar crimes involving threats to public health, especially in view of the extraordinary challenges faced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

He also emphasised the urgency for all Council of Europe member states that have not done it yet, the European Union itself, and other countries beyond the organisation’s geographical scope to sign and ratify the MEDICRIME Convention.

Finally, he invited all member states to join an online event that will mark the 10th Anniversary of the MEDICRIME Convention on 2 December 2021.
