Freedom House releases its \u201cFreedom in the World 2016\u201d report. Ukraine ranks \u201cpartly free\u201d in it. Insufficient progress in crimes investigation of Yanukovych regime as well as threats to safety of journalists are among the key issues.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

Ukraine keeps holding the same position in the Freedom House ranking<\/a> and is listed as a \u201cpartly free\u201d country. While the government keeps reforming the country, there is little progress in investigating the crimes of Yanukovych regime. It was stated by Matthew Schaaf, Director of the representative office of Freedom House in Ukraine at a press-briefing at Ukraine Crisis Media Center. \u201cMassive human rights violations continue in the territories that the Ukrainian government does not control, these violations remain with impunity,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

After the murder of journalist Pavlo Sheremet, safety of journalists in Ukraine came into the spotlight. \u201cJournalists were subject to violence and threats,\u201d Schaaf said. Representatives of the LGBTI community also feel pressure on them quite often. \u201cHowever the LGBTI \u2018pride\u2019 went quite calmly, thanks to the strong protection by law enforcement,\u201d Schaaf added.<\/p>\n

The level of adherence and respect to political rights and civil liberties has declined in 67 countries. It has increased only in 37. \u201cTrump\u2019s victory in the US, Brexit, the victory of right-wing parties in some parts of Europe \u2013 it all puts under threat the strength of alliances and values that are at the basis of the global democratic institutions,\u201d Director of the representative office of Freedom House in Ukraine said. \u201cIn these circumstances the Russian Federation was interfering in political processes in the US and in other democracies, reinforced its support to the dictatorship regime in Syria as well as strengthened its illegal occupation of Ukraine\u2019s territory,\u201d Schaaf said. Russia has been also providing support to the populist parties in the Netherlands, the UK, Austria etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
