No one invites Ukrainian pilot Savchenko to apply for pardon
Lawyer Mark Feygin, who represents the interests of Ukrainian pilot Nadia Savchenko convicted in Russia, sees no point in his client applying for a pardon.
"Soloshenko applied for a pardon and it was declined. What's the point of applying for a pardon if the result will be negative?" Feygin told Interfax on Wednesday.
Yuriy Soloshenko is former general director of Zorya Production Association (Poltava, Ukraine). He was sentenced in Russia to six years in a high-security colony for espionage.
Feygin said he does not know of anyone inviting Savchenko to apply for a pardon.
"I visited Savchenko literally yesterday, no such offers had been made to her," the lawyer said.
