Regional ombudsmen for human rights; a protection of the rights of the inhabitant of the Far East. The note.
An hour and a half ago, the radio announced the beginning of a visit by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin to the Far East.
A convenient situation is being created for the protection of the rights of a specific inhabitant of the Far East by regional ombudsmen for human rights.
Most recently, the Human Rights Ombudsman in the Khabarovsk Krai, Igor Chesnitsky, expressed concern about the lack of opportunity for Sergei Furgal to receive and send correspondence. (https://todaykhv.ru/news/policy/28203/?sphrase_id=2767481)
Mikhail Mishustin's visit to the Far East will take several days. This situation opens up unique opportunities for the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Khabarovsk Krai. He has the moral, organizational and legal capacity to appeal to the human rights ombudsmen of those subjects of the federation that Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin will visit. (It should be noted that the Government includes the Ministry of Justice).
It is advisable to start with immediate phone calls. Then duplicate the calls with official telegrams. 'To the Commissioner for Human Rights of the corresponding subject of the Federation. I would like to ask you to make a request to Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin for assistance in restoring the possibilities of correspondence for Sergei Furgal, a former governor, whose birthplace and permanent place of residence is the Khabarovsk Krai. In a request addressed to the Prime Minister, you can indicate my appeal to you. Commissioner for Human Rights in the Khabarovsk Krai".
After the return of Mikhail Mishustin in Moscow, it is advisable to ask the appropriate Commissioners about the actions they have taken.
If the Prime Minister's trip program includes the Khabarovsk Krai, then, of course, it is advisable to contact him personally (verbally and in writing; a written form is needed to write a resolution [inscription] and send a document for consideration).
Making such calls and writing such telegrams is not a drawing up of a Declaration of Human and Citizen Rights. Perhaps such calls, telegrams, appeals, requests are not enough (by themselves) to go down in the history of the human rights movement. But this is the minimum of actions that regional ombudsmen for human rights can carry out within their powers.
