Abstract Withthe ratication of Lisbon Treaty on December st the
situation of Human Rights in the European Union reaches a new level: now, the
Charter of Human Rights should be legally enforced by its Member Countries
and the bloc comes to a consensus on how the European institutions must be
reformedrethinkingitsstructuretoembracewithpropertythemooUnity
in Diversity”. This article discusses the history of Human Rights under the
European bloc, systematizes the creation of the Charter of Human Rights of the
European Union, problematizes the Lisbon Treaty and aligns this discussion to
the demands of the European Free Alliance – party of the European Parliament
which represents the national minorities. The party has a platform claiming the
recognition of national minorities, and proposals in concert with a project of
European Union more democratic.
