At UN, I.Herashchenko claims Sentsov must get Sakharov prize personally
“Oleh Sentsov ought to receive the Sakharov Prize in person,” -- Iryna Herashchenko at a meeting with the Swedish foreign minister Margot Wallstrom
Pending her UN visit in New York, the First Deputy
Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada Iryna Herashchenko had talks with the Minister
for Foreign Affairs of Sweden Margot Wallstrom, where she thanked the minister
for her sustained support of Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
She also called on to combine efforts with the aim to release political prisoners
and hostages of the Kremlin.
“Oleh Sentsov ought to get the Sakharov Prize in person. We have to redouble our energies to free all the Ukrainian hostages and political prisoners of the Kremlin,” stressed I.Herashchenko.
The First Vice-Speaker observed that the implementation of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 (2000) on Women, Peace and Security remains among top priorities of the hodiernal agenda. She also informed the minister that Ukraine is interested in taking over Sweden's experience in implementing gender equality in all spheres of social and political life.
Afterwards, the presidential Donetsk-Luhansk situation
envoy had also a brief meeting with Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka,
Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and the Executive Director of the
United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women “UN
Women”. The interlocutors exchanged views on the humanitarian situation in the
Donbas and, in particular, over the problems that Ukrainian women face in
eastern Ukraine regularly. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka congratulated on Oleh Sentsov’s
awarding the Sakharov Prize and qualified this decision as an extremely
important signal.
Further steps and coordination of efforts to counter the
Russian aggression in Ukraine became the key topic for the meeting of the First
Deputy Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Iryna Herashchenko with the
Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the United Nations Volodymyr Yelchenko. The
politicians discussed the status of the draft resolutions prepared by Ukraine
for consideration at the UN General Assembly.
"Ukrainian diplomats are working hard to ensure that during the 73rd session there will be passed two mega-resolutions - on the violation of the human rights in the occupied Crimea and the militarization of the occupied Crimea and the Sea of Azov," clued up Iryna Herashchenko after the meeting with Volodymyr Yelchenko.
