European structures, which affirm the need for strict enforcement measures to protect the rights And freedoms of the person, do not give their assessment to the Ukrainian crisis, when heavy artillery shelled houses of civilians, said the speaker of the Federation Council of the Russian Federation Valentina Matvienko on the first day of the week at the meeting with head of the PACE Anne Brasseur.

The Senator stressed that in this case, there are double standards in the approach to different situations.

"We are surprised that today in Ukraine are grossly violated all possible And impossible Convention of the Council of Europe, UN. Flagrantly violated the rights and freedom of citizens, freedom of speech, committed iniquity against humanity, which were never investigated, " - said Matvienko.

"And neither PACE nor dissatisfied do not evaluate this kind of event, do not carry out a monitoring mission in southeastern Ukraine, where a humanitarian disaster is unfolding" - She said.

According to the speaker, the European structures do not provide its assessment of the situation in Ukraine, where instead of sharing political views with their own people, they unleashed civil war And peace settlements were fired on with heavy weapons.

"And no reaction, no marks from those that advocate strict observance of the rights And freedoms of the individual, freedom of the media ", - said Matvienko. She complained that, apparently, double standards in the evaluation of different events is a common practice today.
