	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/10/2019 answer text <p>We are aware of reports concerning Mr Rusynov's imprisonment in a non-government controlled area of Eastern Ukraine. We remain extremely concerned about the lack of access for human rights bodies to non-government-controlled territories in Eastern Ukraine. It is essential that independent investigations take place to deliver accountability for all serious allegations of violations. We have called upon Russia to use its influence over the separatists to provide this access and to ensure respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.</p> answering member constituency Tamworth answering member printed Christopher Pincher question first answered 07/10/2019 16:18:15 answering member 4075 label Biography information for Christopher Pincher
