PACE mission may be sent to Ukraine to investigate ultra-right extremism

After returning to permanent work, interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe may send an additional mission to Ukraine to investigate ultra-right extremism. This was reported by the deputy of the Social Democratic Party of Austria, PACE member Stefan Schennach.

Shennakh also believes that the wave of attacks by national radicals on civilians that swept across Ukraine should become the topic of a special report to PACE.

“I think when we return to full-time work, we will send an additional mission to Ukraine specifically to investigate this ultra-right extremism. I made a corresponding position in the monitoring committee and in the bureau of the Council of Europe. I think it’s time to make a special report on this matter”, – said Stefan Schennach.
