Public movement POLITICS 2.0 Representative: Julia Stadnichuk Topic Emerging minority and human rights protection to prevent social conflict Good afternoon, on behalf of the members of our Movement, I greet all the participants in this forum. Thank you for the opportunity to take part in it. My name is Yulia Stadnichuk. I represent the International Public Movement POLITICS 2.0. We started our activities in the Russian Federation, however, at the moment, there are allies of our concept in other countries, in particular in Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Chile, Great Britain and others. Among our main goals are informing citizens about the ways of protecting and exercising their constitutional and civil rights, appeals to state authorities and law enforcement, information and educational activities, assistance in the preparation of legal claims, initiation of court hearings, etc. Today I want to discuss what we are facing and what we can confirm with specific documents, including video recordings from the scenes of events. Since the beginning of the active fight against the new coronavirus infection in the Russian Federation, the practice of introducing measures restricting the rights of citizens that are not based on state laws has begun to take shape. The Russian Constitution, as well as international legal acts signed and ratified by Russia, guarantee citizens freedom of religion, freedom of movement, protection from coercion to participate in medical experiments, and the right to a fair trial. Despite all this, our Movement has repeatedly faced situations when the rights of citizens were violated in the absence of legal grounds. Since the start of the vaccination campaign against the new coronavirus infection, the situation has worsened. Despite the fact that the available vaccines did not even pass all the necessary tests, that is, they are experimental drugs with unknown properties, citizens began to face an unprecedented compulsion to participate in an actual medical experiment. The laws of the Russian Federation do not allow in any way the coercion of citizens to vaccinate themselves, and protect the right to voluntary informed consent to medical interventions. They also do not provide an opportunity to threaten people with dismissal or deprivation of the right to education, medical care, etc. on the basis of their refusal of a medical intervention. However, citizens face threats of firing and other forms of pressure.
