In the draft resolution, paragraph 3, replace the first sentence with the following sentence :
"Recalling Recommendation 1702 (2005) on freedom of the press and the working conditions of journalists in conflict zones, the Assembly condemns the alleged targeted attacks on journalists in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine and calls on the authorities of Ukraine to do their utmost to investigate those attacks and bring the perpetrators before the domestic courts, and calls on the Russian Federation to use their influence on the pro-Russian separatist forces to contribute to these investigations."
Explanatory Note :
According to international law, Ukraine has the exclusive right to conduct investigations and judicial proceedings on its territory. The Russian side has to use its influence on pro-Russian separatists to allow Ukrainian investigators into areas which are not under the control of the Ukrainian government.
