The Ukrainian leadership has made in the Sanctions list of correspondents, which does not have the slightest idea, said the head of the international Fund of protection of freedom of speech "Adil Soz" ( "True word" ) Tamara Kaleyeva.

on Wednesday, the head of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko issued a decree on the introduction of sanctions concerning the Inhabitants of foreign countries, " responsible for implementing illegal activities against Ukraine." The sanctions list includes 388 physical and 105 legal entities, including citizens of 23 countries. Under punishment and got the President the mission of the MIA "Russia today" in Kazakhstan Olga Kovalenko.

review kalievoi, the reason for the inclusion Kovalenko in the Sanctions list - the attitude of the Ukrainian authorities to the Russian news Agency." Journalist living and working in Kazakhstan, which is nothing about Ukraine did not write, suddenly becomes an enemy of the Ukrainian people. I think that, by itself, Is not specifically against Olga Kovalenko sanction, just some General lists. Once She has the attitude to Russian news Agency, This means She is already serving an enemy of Ukraine? On another I am unable to explain It, "said Kaleeva the journalist of the Agency" news-Kazakhstan ".

She believes that the Ukrainian side made a hasty step, introducing penalties against authorized media, while "Under the hand" were innocent civilians." It just shows the actions of the Ukrainian leadership, which imposes penalties to people who don't have the slightest idea, " added Kaleeva.

"I think this situation can be laughed at, It's just a joke. Any serious consequences, I dream, will not. Time will pass, and all This will be remembered as a funny episode ", She concluded.

Different types of penalties, from the ban on entry into the country before the arrest of the property are entered for a period of one year. The limits will come into force after the relevant presidential decree will be published in the Gazette.
