Naryshkin was indignant at the silence of the West about the disappearance of Stenin and hopes for the effectiveness of Putin's meeting with Poroshenko

The Kiev authorities could shed light on the fate of the photo correspondent of the MIA Russia today Andrei Stenin, the State Duma speaker of the Russian Federation Sergey Naryshkin is sure. At the same time, he noticed that what happened to the Russian journalist does not bother the West. The day before, we recall that Stenin's mother turned to the International Red Cross Committee for help.

“The Kyiv authorities are silent, ignoring all official requests from Russia, although there is reason to believe that official Kyiv could shed light on the fate of the missing reporter,” Naryshkin, ITAR -TASS, quoted.

The speaker also commented on the murder of Islamic militants of the American journalist James Fowley (Foli), who had disappeared about two years ago in Syria. "The cold -blooded murder under the camera of American journalist James Fouley, committed by radical Islamists, is striking. The Russians, of course, sincerely condole the relatives of the deceased," said Naryshkin.

According to him, in this situation, the reaction of Western politicians is selective - "I see here, but here I do not see." "We see that the feeling of impunity progresses as an infectious disease, and as a result, the price of human right to life falls, not to mention other rights and freedoms," the parliamentarian noted.

Naryshkin also hoped that the upcoming meeting of the leaders of the Customs Union (TS) countries, including Vladimir Putin, with President of Ukraine Peter Poroshenko in Minsk will be one of the steps to resolve the confrontation in the southeast of the country.

"The de -escalation of the conflict in Ukraine and the cessation of armed confrontation are impossible without bilateral dialogue, primarily all the political forces and all regions within the country, Ukraine itself, and without international dialogue," said the State Duma speaker.

Moreover, earlier some media called not to wait for any breakthrough from the Minsk meeting, which will be held as part of the TS summit - Ukraine on August 26. The theme of what is happening in the southeast of Ukraine will not be key in Minsk, reporters said. However, the sources of Kommersant suggested that Putin and Poroshenko could discuss the confrontation between official Kyiv with separatists during a separate meeting.

In addition to Putin and Poroshenko, the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev, his Belarusian colleague Alexander Lukashenko, the Supreme EU EU for Foreign Affairs Katherine Ashton, as well as two European commissars on energy and trade, will also be attended by Putin and Poroshenko. It was also reported that French President Francois Hollande proposed arranging a four -sided meeting with his participation, Putin, Poroshenko and German Chancellor Angels Merkel.
