12.3.2010: The picket in support of the spiritual leader of the Rusyn movement, Orthodox priest, Father Dimitry Sidor. March 15 at 13.00 in front of the Embassy of Ukraine, at Moscow, Leontief Lane., 18 (Metro station Tverskaya, Pushkinskaya) The Eurasian Youth Movement will organize a picket in support of the spiritual leader of the Rusyn movement, Orthodox priest, Father Dimitry Sidor, who is now suppressed by Ukranian police and State Security Servise . We call for all Orthodox Christians, as well as all those who care about Rusyn people and Rusyn movement in the Ukraine to come and support our campaign, or to spread this information.

The trial of Dmitri Sidor was launched by former President Yushchenko and the head of the Ukrainian KGB Nalivaichenko. The spiritual leader of the sub-Carpathian Rusyns Father Dimitry Sidor is supressed only because he dared to raise his voice in defense of his people and spoke out against reckless Ukrainianization.

We urge the leadership of Ukraine and President Viktor Yanukovych to review the policy of his predecessors in relation to indigenous peoples of multinational Ukraine and grant the Rusyn people autonomy on its own land.

We urge Ukraine's leaders to stop prosecution of an Orthodox priest, Father Dimitry Sidor and stop criminal proceedings instituted by the former regime for political reasons.
