answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/10/2016 answer text The human rights situation in Crimea has deteriorated significantly since the Russia's illegal annexation. We are deeply concerned about the treatment of Crimean Tatars who face regular harassment including arrests, detentions, disappearances, threats to seize property, and restrictions on their rights of worship, assembly and expression, including a ban on the Mejlis council. We are aware of reports that 18 Crimean Tatars are currently held in Russian-run prisons and several more are under arrest for opposing the illegal annexation of Crimea. International human rights organisations such as the UN and the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe are barred from entering Crimea. We continue to call on Russia to allow them immediate and unfettered access. answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 17/10/2016 16:20:22 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/10/2016 answer text <p>The Joint Investigation Team's ongoing investigation is essential to ensure that those responsible for this incident are brought to justice. Its initial criminal report has provided clear evidence that the missile that brought down MH17 was Russian-made, and launched from within territory held by Russian-backed separatist groups. We have urged Russia to engage constructively with the findings, the ongoing investigation, and any resulting attempts to prosecute those identified as the perpetrators.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 17/10/2016 16:22:31 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/07/2016 answer text The UK has been at the forefront of international efforts – in the EU, NATO, G7 and OSCE – to hold Russia to account for its aggression in Ukraine, and will continue to do so. The European Council, like the G7, has agreed that sanctions are linked to full implementation of the Minsk agreements. The Government will continue to push for this commitment to be upheld. EU economic sanctions against Russia were recently extended by unanimity for a further six months, until 31 January 2017. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 07/07/2016 16:34:55 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington previous answer version 6212 answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
