Canada condemns the detention of Nariman Dzhelyalov and another four Crimean Tatars, who were seized by officers of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
The corresponding statement was made by the Canadian Embassy in Ukraine on Sept. 7.
“Canada condemns the detention of Nariman Dzhelyalov and four other Crimean Tatars by Russia’s Federal Security Service. Dzhelyalov’s group was simply exercising its right to freedom of speech and assembly. We call on Russia to release them and all Ukraine’s political prisoners immediately,” the Embassy said on Twitter.
