Foreign minister of Ukraine Leonid Kozhara says that in Ukraine there is no system of selective justice, there is only the case of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.
"I am absolutely convinced that such a system does not exist in Ukraine," Kozhara said on Monday, speaking at the meeting of the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the European Parliament.
"For me, it would be easier if you replaced the wording "selective justice" with “Tymoshenko’s case," he said.
The minister also expressed his belief that it is impossible to speak of political prisoners in Ukraine.
“There is no such political wording - "political prisoners" - in our relations with the European Union, the Council of Europe, the OSCE and the UN. We believe that there are no political prisoners in Ukraine," Kozhara stated.
