Ten non-permanent members are elected for a two-year term, while one half of them changes every year. Slovakia held the post for the last time in 2006-2007.
Moreover, during its three-year membership of the UN Human Rights Council (2018-2020), Slovakia wants to run for the post of the council’s deputy chair for 2020, TASR wrote.
