Take Action to Prevent Human Atrocities in Ukraine
Ukrainian government is using illegal force to kill peaceful protests in Ukraine. Human rights are violated with brutal beatings by police, tortures of wounded and unarmed people, kidnappings, police snipers on rooftops and use of AK lethal weapons against the demonstrators.
Why is this important?
Ukrainian people and the democratic world community is asking President Obama and the U.S. Congress to take immediate action to prevent future atrocities in Ukraine. The dictatorship regime supported by Kremlin has orchestrated bloody violence on the street of Kyiv and used military force against peaceful demonstrators. As a result, dozens of unarmed civilians died, thousands are wounded and in critical condition. Ukrainian nation is very peaceful and in the course of Orange Revolution of 2004, millions of Ukrainians expressed their nation's will without a singe act of violence. For the last three months, Ukrainian protesters courageously endured sub-zero temperatures around the clock in the hope that the voices of the people of Ukraine would be heard, and a peaceful compromise can be found. However, Yanukovich and his MPs were not interested in the peaceful resolution and initiated killings of their own people. They used snipers, grenades, water canons in sub-zero temperatures and AK-74 against peaceful demonstrators which violates UN convention on human rights. An immediate action is needed on the part of the US government to influence the government of Ukraine to stop the bloodshed, to withdraw any military force and meet protesters' demands by legislative, political and economic reforms. We believe you can help! Thank you.
