- Nóta "Countries which have abolished the death penalty are referred to as 'abolitionist'.The expressions 'de facto abolition' and 'de facto abolitionist' are used to describe countries which retain the death penalty in law but do not carry out executions in practice (some organisations use these terms to refer specifically to countries which have not carried out any executions for 10 years or more).Note reference: Council-EN, based on Amnesty International, 'The Death Penalty: List of abolitionist and retentionist countries (December 1991)', February 1992, https://www.amnesty.org/download/Documents/196000/act500011992en.pdf [27.4.2018]"
