We thank the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights for its update. We reiterate our calls to the government of Ukraine to improve its response to domestic and gender-based violence, and to better address the issues of fair trial, non-discrimination and accountability for past abuses. We urge the de facto authorities in Russia-backed separatist-controlled Donbas and in Russia-occupied Crimea to end their widespread human rights violations, including their crackdown on dissenting voices.
