The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has condemned the “harassment” of reporters in Ukraine after security services raided the offices of an independent news website and a member of parliament criticized the head of the national press union for his response to the raid.
Ukrainian authorities should “end their harassment” of Strana.ua and “stop fostering a hostile environment toward the press,” said CPJ Europe and Central Asia Program Coordinator Nina Ognianova in a statement on August 14.
