"It is important that our opponents could not change the term ‘Russian aggression’ for ‘internal conflict’, or replace the concept of ‘free elections’ to ‘elections at gunpoint’…" PACE Vice-President Heorhiy Lohvynsky wrote on Facebook.
As UNIAN reported earlier, yesterday, January 24, PACE adopted a resolution on the attacks on journalists and media freedom in Europe, demanding the release of political prisoners in the occupied Crimea.
