Yatsenyuk erupted in Facebook about Karpyuk and Klich, as we rolled up the mountain, seeking help from him
In Ukraine there is no effective system for responding to the affairs of its political prisoners in Russia. Human rights defenders have to make every effort to obtain from the same Arseniy Yatsenyuk, when he was prime minister, the elementary steps to protect Nikolaya Karpyuka and Stanislav Klich, said “GORDON” human rights activist Maria Tomak.
The Russian Supreme Court in Moscow is the appeal Ukrainian political prisoners Nikolaya Karpyuka and Stanislav Klich. At the meeting came to an MP of the “Batkivshchyna” Nadezhda Savchenko . Trip Ukrainian politician and former prisoners to Moscow caused a lot of negativity in the Ukrainian segment of Facebook. Nothing wrong with the act Savechenko not, said “GORDON” Ukrainian human rights activist and coordinator “of the media initiative for human rights,” Mariya Tomak.
“There is nothing reprehensible in the act Savchenko not see, but the whole Facebook-belt packed with the theme of Hope trip to Moscow, I do not know what the effect will be on her trip, but in any case it has attracted more attention to the case of political prisoners.” – said Tomac.
A human rights activist stressed that the main problem in Ukraine today there is no effective system to respond to the affairs of its political prisoners in Russia. As an example, she led today’s post about Karpyuk Klich and former prime minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
“For me, a much more negative in the fact that only today Arseniy Yatsenyuk erupted Facebook-post about Karpyuk and Klich. Although when needed real help, we had the mountain to collapse, to achieve by then-Prime Minister Yatsenyuk and Ukraine as a whole elementary steps . in defense Karpyuk Klich and That in the absence of an effective system for responding to cases Ukrainian political prisoners in Russia, I see the main problem of our country “, – explained Tomac.
According to human rights activist, close enough (in comparison with the case of Oleg Savchenko Sentsova or most, when she was in prison), the world’s attention to the matter and Karpyuk Klich due to the fact that the West is wary of the representatives of right-wing ideology.
“President Poroshenko did a lot of applications for the release of Karpyuk and Klich. But the West is always very wary of the representatives of right-wing ideology and Karpyuk and Klich, of course, the carriers of this ideology. But human rights efforts for their release are not linked to the fact that we support or is not this or that ideology We defend the basic principles of human rights can not be illegal to hold people, can not be applied to them of torture, as was the case with Karpyuk and Klich, “-.. said Tomac.
Coordinator “of the media initiative for human rights” has no doubt that the Russian court rejects appeal Karpyuk Klich and the sentence. According Tomac, then it will be two ways to liberate the Ukrainian political prisoners: the European Court of Human Rights and international political negotiations.
“I think no one doubts the outcome of the appeal. What to do? There are two strategic ways. Firstly, the European Court of Human Rights. This protection orientation is Ukrainian Helsinki Group. But this is not a short-term perspective, it will take years and years to come. The second way -. it is the political negotiations are the most hope, we are trying in every way to push Ukraine to it is actively engaged in the negotiations, especially since Klich serious mental health problems after being tortured, “- concluded Tomac.
October 26, 2016 Russian lawyer Ilya Novikov, which protects the Ukrainians illegally detained by the Russian authorities, said the People’s Deputy “Batkivshchyna” Nadezhda Savchenko arrived in Moscow on the appeal of political prisoners Mikalai Karpyuk and Stanislav Klich in the Russian Supreme Court.

The indictment stated that Karpyuk led a detachment of “Viking” who fought against the Russian army in Chechnya, and allegedly his subordinate Klich 22 years ago personally killed four Russian military.
The indictment also stated that the former Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk, who was a squad firing at the Russians from a Kalashnikov about ten times. Karpyuk Klich and charges vehemently denied and insisted that he had never been in Chechnya and did not participate in hostilities.
The President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said that Ukraine would seek their release . Lawyer Ilya Novikov believes that after the appeal will be talking about the exchange of Ukrainians .
Savchenko, who fought in the Donbass in the battalion “Aidar”, was captured by the rebels, “LC” in June 2014 in Luhansk region, and then was taken to the Russian Federation.
