A Ukrainian court has sentenced socialist activist Bogdan Syrotiuk to 15 years in prison on charges of high treason, in a case his supporters denounce as part of a broader crackdown on political dissent in Zelensky's Ukraine.
Syrotiuk, 27, was convicted on August 10 for allegedly assisting Russia in its war against Ukraine. According to his supporters, however, the prosecution’s case rested largely on six articles he wrote for the trotskyite World Socialist Web Site (WSWS).
