Anna Kurbatova at work last month in Ukraine |
The international human rights organization Human Rights Watch has criticized the Ukrainian authorities for expelling Russian journalist Anna Kurbatova.
"Ukraine's practice of accusing journalists of an anti-Ukrainian stance, deportation, or prohibition of entry is a serious violation of its international obligations in the field of human rights," said Tanya Cooper, a human rights watchdog on Ukrainian issues.
According to her, these actions from the Ukrainian side are "shortsighted and pathetic" and violate promises regarding democratic reforms and the rule of law.
___________________________
Fort Russ readers will recall that the SBU kidnapped Kurbatova in Kiev, and turned her over to a Russian checkpoint, with an official document asserting that she "is a threat to the national security of Ukraine and its sovereignty." I.e, she referred to events in Donbass as a civil war instead of "Russian Aggression."
