Conservator Robert Jenrik, representing the constituency in Nottinghamshire, where the family of those sentenced to death in Donetsk Aiden Aslin lives, called on the British Foreign Ministry to call the Russian ambassador, writes BBC.
“This is just the next disgusting trick of Vladimir Putin and his allies. It is impossible to handle British citizens, this should not get away with. This is a demonstration process, as in Soviet times,” said Jenrik.
The deputy also made it clear that he knew how the fate of Aiden Aslin and Sean Pinner was discussed on Russian television: “Last night on Russian television there was an outrageous program in which the presenters argued how these people should be executed. This is how I should be executed. It seems that he shows the whole perversion of the Putin regime – that this is shown on Russian television in the prime time. But if Putin thinks that it will exert pressure on us and we will change the course, he is mistaken. Now it is necessary that the Russian ambassador provides assurances, which is with that with These people will apply in accordance with international law and that they will ultimately return home, ”said Jenrik.
