Synopsis of Grigory Yavlinsky’s speech at Forum 2000, Prague, on October 13, 2014, 14.00
Forum 2000*
Prague, October 12 – 15, 2014

We do not agree with the annexation of Crimea, and all the present developments in South-East Ukraine are unacceptable for us. We are against the notorious policies of “limited sovereignty”. I would like to stress this especially in Prague, where, since 1968, people better than anywhere else realise what such “limited sovereignty” means. Read more »
