Epiphany between the Barricades The Ukrainian Maidan as a Sacred Space Heleen Zorgdrager 1. Introduction 1.1. A civil uprising and its bloody end On the evening of February 21, 2014, Independence Square (Maidan Nezalezh- nosti) in Kiev was flooded with an angry crowd. During the day and the night before, snipers, hidden on the roofs of buildings, had bloodily ended the civil uprising that had lasted for three months. In the morning, dead bodies were laid side by side in the lobby of Hotel Ukraina. Over a hundred people were killed. Churches close to the square (the Orthodox Sv Mykhailivsky Cathedral and monastery, and the Lutheran St. Katharina Kirche1) were transformed into hospitals and shelters where the injured were given first aid. Smoke of burnt tires hung over the square. The burnt-down tents and the fumigated Trade Union Building, headquarters of the demonstrators, offered a macabre picture. That night, the people gathered on the Maidan to share their shock, anger and grief. Everything could be watched via live stream through the independent Ukrainian internet channels Espreso TV and Hromadske TV. The uprising had begun with the unexpected refusal of President Viktor Yanukovych of Ukraine to sign the Association Agreement with the European Union, scheduled for November 21, 2013, during the EU summit in Vilnius. His rejection gave rise to a protest movement that was unique for twenty-first century Europe in its size and character. The students who took the initiative called their protest ‘Euromaidan’, after the central square of Kiev where the core of the protest was located. -

CORI Country Report Russian Federation, October 2010
Confirms CORI country of origin research and information CORI Country Report Russian Federation, October 2010 Preface Country of Origin Information (COI) is required within Refugee Status Determination (RSD) to provide objective evidence on conditions in refugee producing countries to support decision making. Quality information about human rights, legal provisions, politics, culture, society, religion and healthcare in countries of origin is essential in establishing whether or not a person’s fear of persecution is well founded. CORI Country Reports are designed to aid decision making within RSD. They are not intended to be general reports on human rights conditions. They serve a specific purpose, collating legally relevant information on conditions in countries of origin, pertinent to the assessment of claims for asylum. Categories of COI included within this report are based on the most common issues arising from asylum applications made by Russian Federation nationals. This report covers events up to 29 October 2010. COI is a specific discipline distinct from academic, journalistic or policy writing, with its own conventions and protocols of professional standards as outlined in international guidance such as The Common EU Guidelines on Processing Country of Origin Information, 2008 and UNHCR, Country of Origin Information: Towards Enhanced International Cooperation, 2004. CORI provides information impartially and objectively, the inclusion of source material in this report does not equate to CORI agreeing with its content or reflect CORI’s position on conditions in a country. It is acknowledged that all sources have a bias, it is for decision makers to place a weight on sources, assessing relevance to each individual application. -
English Translation of the Amendments and Which My Office Is Currently Assessing
Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe The Representative on Freedom of the Media Dunja Mijatović 27 November 2014 Regular Report to the Permanent Council for the period from 19 June through 26 November 2014 Introduction I would like to start this morning by thanking the Swiss chairmanship, in particular Chairman-in-Office Foreign Minister Didier Burkhalter and Chairman of the Permanent Council, Ambassador Thomas Greminger, and his staff for their support of my Office’s work throughout the year and its generous financial assistance for our work in Ukraine in 2015. I would also like to say I look forward to co-operating with the 2015 Chairman-in-office, Serbia. Finally, I would also like to thank participating States that have contributed extra-budgetary funds this year to support the work of our Office and I hope we can once again rely on your support next year. Perhaps this happens when you get older, but watching the events on television commemorating the 25th anniversary of the dismantling of the Berlin Wall, a wave of recent history roiled my memories. I know that for many of you in this room, the Berlin Wall was a dividing line and a defining time in your personal lives and professional careers. Some of you had seen the Wall go up in 1961, a thick, gray and unforgiving structure; the perfect testament to the gray and unforgiving way of life that it sought to protect. For 28 years the Wall stood as the one, true symbol of the dysfunction of Europe and the classic example of how logic and language could be turned on its head. -
ISIL Truth and the Suspicious Death of Journalist Serena Shim: Hypocritical Western Media Remains Silent
ISIL Truth and the Suspicious Death of Journalist Serena Shim: Hypocritical Western Media Remains Silent By Eric Draitser Region: Middle East & North Africa Global Research, October 24, 2014 In-depth Report: SYRIA RT Serena Shim (Screenshot from youtube video by PressTV News Videos) The suspicious death of US-born journalist Serena Shim, and the deafening silence on the story in the US, is merely the latest example of the blatant double standard employed by the Western media. Shim, a 29 year old American journalist of Lebanese descent, had been covering the ongoing war in Syria, specifically the current battle between ISIS militants and Kurdish forces near the Syrian town of Kobani, from the Turkish-Syrian border. Shim was traveling in a rental car back to her hotel after reporting from the Turkish town of Suruc near the Syrian border, when the car was allegedly struck by a heavy vehicle, killing Shim. While Turkish authorities quickly contended that her death was an accident, many around the world, including executives and senior staff members of Press TV – the Iranian news agency for which Shim was working – have expressed doubts about the circumstances of her death, describing it as“suspicious.” Such suspicions are clearly warranted as the alleged accident came just one day after Shim expressed fears for her own safety after receiving death threats from Turkish intelligence (MIT). In an interview with Press TV just after being accused of being a spy and receiving the threats, Shim stated: “I’m very surprised at this accusation – I even thought of approaching Turkish intelligence because I have nothing to hide… I am a bit worried, because…Turkey has been labeled by Reporters Without Borders as the largest prison for journalists…so I am frightened about what they might use against me… We were some of the first people on the ground –if not the first people – to get that story of…militants going in through the Turkish border…I’ve got images of them in World Food Organization trucks.
