Apparently, even folks within Amnesty questioned the motivations of the report.

> However, the head of Amnesty Ukraine’s office, Oksana Pokalchuk, wrote on Facebook that her operation disagreed with the report. She said they were cut out of the pre-publication process when they complained that the report was based on incomplete evidence compiled by foreign colleagues.

> “Our team’s arguments about the inadmissibility and incompleteness of such material were not taken into account,” wrote Pokalchuk. “The representatives of the Ukrainian office did everything they could to prevent this material from being published.”

Amnesty's Ukraine director resigned shortly thereafter. The Wikipedia article goes into greater detail and it's scathing.
