The aim of the paper is to assess the e?ectiveness of the activities of the Republic of Poland and the Republic of Moldova in terms of the implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights standards in some specifc human rights areas. The findings make it possible to identify the positive steps and setbacks that the Committee of Ministers faced in the supervision of judgment implementation executed by the concerned countries. Te paper focuses on the measures taken to enforce ECtHR judgments and describes the main problems identified by the ECHR in relation to both countries. The paper undertakes to explore the extent to which the European Court of Human Rights has improved the situation of human rights protection within these countries. The overview of the case law concerning both countries shows some common features but also some di?erences. Both countries have a history of violations of the European Convention on Human Rights, which is broader in the case of Moldova.
