USA to Ukraine - Free Tymoshenko
USA has sent an appeal to the Ukrainian authorities for the release of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, sentenced in October to seven years of prison for fraud in the conclusion of gas contracts with Russia in 2009. Her appeal was rejected on Friday.
The State Department expressed "disappointment" to the maintenance of the sentence by the appellate court in Kiev. USA stressed that both the former prime minister and others imprisoned Ukrainian politicians should have the right to participate fully in the political life of the country.
Nor Tymoshenko nor her lawyers did participate at Friday's hearing. The day before, the Prime Minister stated she would not participate in "farce" of a court, where she can not count on a fairverdict.
In October, in addition to seven years in prisonsentence Tymoshenko has received a three-year state ban and was ordered to pay the state fuel company Naftohaz of Ukraine a compensation of 1.5 billion hryvnias. According to the court this was the value of the losses that Naftohaz lost as a result of Tymoshenko's unfavorable gas contracts with Russia.
Prison sentence for opposition politicians seriously upset the relations between Ukraine and the EU, which found that the Ukrainian authorities have a selective approach to the law. The cooling of these contacts meant that in December there was no initialling of an Association Agreement with the European Union in Kiev.
