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 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
