Russia, notably the case of Ukrainian political prisoner Oleg Sentsov

  Charles Tannock, author. – Madam President, today marks one month since Oleg Sentsov, a Ukrainian national and a filmmaker, and also a Russian political prisoner, began a hunger strike together with his fellow political prisoners Olexandr Kolchenko, Alexander Shumkov, and Volodymyr Balukh. These brave men are protesting against Russia’s persecution and arbitrary imprisonment of opposition voices, including especially those within annexed Crimea. They further demand the release of as many as 70 other Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars who have been arrested by Moscow on political grounds.

Today is also the kick-off of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. The country will be in the global spotlight for the next month or so, but my Group today demands the immediate and unconditional release of Sentsov and his fellow prisoners, sentenced by a country that has no legitimate jurisdiction over them on political grounds.

I also urge European political leaders to refrain from attending the 2018 World Cup in condemnation of Russia’s continued disrespecting of the multilateral, rules-based world order, be it in Crimea, eastern Ukraine, the European Union or US political processes – not to mention the poisoning, within my country, the United Kingdom, of its own citizens.

I sincerely hope that the violations of human rights and international law that have become the norm for Moscow will not be lost from sight in the momentary cheering, comradeship and celebration that rightly accompanies every World Cup event.
