The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) demands the release of Ukrainian journalists persecuted by russia in the occupied territories.

“108 journalists (in the world – Ed.) spent New Year’s Eve in prison, according to the estimates of organizations that are part of the EFJ and the Council of Europe Platform on Safety of Journalists… The EFJ and its member organizations called on national governments to take the necessary measures to ensure freedom of the press in Europe and ensure the safety of journalists. There are legal standards and even best practices. But very few states implement them,” the report says.

The message says that in russia, which, this year, has become the country that imprisons the most journalists in Europe, a total of 40 media workers in russia and occupied Ukraine have been put behind bars.

The list from Crimea and the occupied parts of Ukraine includes Amet Suleymanov, Asan Akhtemov, Dmytro Khyliuk, Ernes Ametov, Iryna Danylovych, Iryna Levchenko, Marlen Asanov, Remzi Bekirov, Rustem Sheykhaliyev, Serhii Tsyhipa, Server Mustafayev, Seyran Saliyev, Timur Ibragimov, and Viktoriya Roshchyna.

“Since the first days of Crimea seizure, russia has launched the attack on freedom of speech in Crimea. As previously reported by the permanent representative of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Tamila Tasheva, a total of 559 cases have been initiated in Crimea for “discrediting” the armed forces of the russian federation,” the Krym.Realii site notes.

On October 5, a press conference was held in Kyiv. It was dedicated to How to Rescue Vladyslav Yesypenko and Other Crimean Journalists Imprisoned by Russia? Its participants discussed the situation media workers-prisoners of the Kremlin regime, including the imprisoned Krym.Realii freelancer, Vladyslav Yesypenko, find themselves in. They also talked about the representatives of the russian federation involved in the systematic persecution of political prisoners.

On November 2, human rights defenders presented a list of suspects in the persecution of Crimean journalists and bloggers. According to their data, over 90 people are involved in the persecution of journalists in Crimea.

The EFJ and its affiliates once again call on national governments to take the necessary measures to guarantee press freedom in Europe and ensure the safety of journalists. Legal standards exist, as well as good practices. But very few states implement them. In particular, the EFJ calls on the Council of Europe member states to urgently implement the Recommendation of the Committee of Ministers 2016/4 on the protection and safety of journalism and journalists. The adoption of national plans related to this Recommendation is now a priority, EFJ notes.
