Senate of Poland urges to release Savchenko immediately

The Senate of Poland has condemned detention and keeping of Nadiya Savchenko in the Russian jail and urged the Russian authorities to immediately release the Ukrainian pilot.

This has been said in the resolution that was adopted by the Upper Chamber of the Polish Parliament.

"Keeping of Nadiya Savchenko in prison is a gross violation of fundamental freedoms and human rights, against which mass protests constantly rise. The Senate of Poland joins these protests and appeals to the Russian Federation to immediately release Nadiya Savchenko," the resolution of the Senate reads.

The document stresses that Savchenko is a political prisoner, abducted from the territory of Ukraine and illegally detained in Russia for more than 1.5 years.
