В действующем Уголовном кодексе в статье 69 относительно нарушения национального или расового равноправия определено: " Разжигание розни или национальной или расовой вражды, умышленные действия, направленные на унижение национальной чести и достоинства, а равно прямое или косвенное ограничение прав граждан или установление прямых или косвенных преимуществ исходя из расовой или национальной принадлежности наказывается лишением свободы сроком до трех лет ".

In the Court's view the useof slang words and emphasized quotations, rather than “a literary language that would be appropriate for such a criticism”, showed that the expressions employed “were used with the intention to belittle the private plaintiff and expose him to ridicule, and therefore this and such an act of his, though it was done within the performance of the journalist profession, is indeed a criminal offence [of insult]”. Суд счел, что использование жаргонных выражений и цитат, а не " литературного языка, который был бы адекватным для такой критики " свидетельствует о том, что использованные выражения " были направлены на унижение истца и представление его в смешном виде и, следовательно, подобное действие, хотя оно и было совершено в рамках исполнения журналистских профессиональных обязанностей, является, действительно, уголовно наказуемым преступлением (в виде оскорбления) ".

What is translation in context on PROMT.One

The “Contexts” section on PROMT.One is your translation-in-context tool that helps you find real examples of how words and phrases are used.
