(asked on 29th June 2017) - View Source

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

Her Majesty's Government what representations they have made to the government of Ukraine about (1) investigating the burning down of the Roma camp at 2 Kanalna Street, Kyiv on 5 April, and (2) the return and integration of the Roma residents.


This question was answered on 17th July 2017

We are aware of reports of predominantly Roma settlements in Kyiv being destroyed and inhabitants evicted on 30 March and 5 April, we are not aware of reports of what efforts have been made to re-home those affected. We will investigate further and raise these incidents and what has been done to re-home and reintegrate those affected back in to their local communities with the authorities in Kyiv. I shall write to update you as this progresses.
