SECRETARY OF STATE CLINTON EXPRESSES CONCERN OVER UKRAINIAN POLITICAL PRISONERS


FROM:  U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT
Treatment of Former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko
Press Statement Hillary Rodham Clinton
Secretary of State Washington, DC
May 1, 2012
The United States is deeply concerned by the treatment of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko and other imprisoned members of her former government. The photographs of Mrs. Tymoshenko released by the Ukrainian Human Rights Ombudsman further call into question the conditions of her confinement. We urge the Ukrainian authorities to ensure that Mrs. Tymoshenko receives immediate medical assistance in an appropriate facility and request that the U.S. Ambassador be given access to her. We continue to call for her release, the release of other members of her former government and the restoration of their full civil and political rights
