Council of Europe gives anti-hatred recommendations to Ukraine

Council of Europe gives anti-hatred recommendations to Ukraine
19 of Septeber 2017 г.
The Council of Europe welcomes Ukraine's progress in combating hatred and discrimination, but points to current problems in this sphere.

This is stated in the fifth report by the Council of Europe's European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), which was made public on Tuesday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"While we welcome the progress achieved, there are issues that still give rise to serious concern. The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has led to a sharp rise in hate speech over the past three years and has had a negative effect on vulnerable groups in general," ECRI Chairperson Christian Ahlund said.

According to the Council of Europe press release, in its new report on Ukraine, ECRI commended new legal provisions to combat discrimination, progress in investigating hate crimes, steps towards integrating Roma and solidarity towards internally displaced persons (IDPs).

At the same time, according to the authors of the document, "efforts must be stepped up to end racist violence against LGBT and Roma and hate speech dominating public discourse, and to improve conditions of IDPs."

"I trust the authorities will take on board the recommendations of the report," Council of Europe Secretary General Thorbjorn Jagland said. "For our part, the Council of Europe remains committed, including through the currently developed Action plan for Ukraine 2018-2021, to continue working with the country's authorities in countering hate speech and discrimination against minorities, and promote tolerance and mutual understanding," he added.
