Apr 10, 2024

On 10 March, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued another entry ban for British citizens who, according to the Ministry, are helping Ukraine with its military operations.

This is evidenced by a statement from the Russian Foreign Ministry.

The Russian foreign ministry said it had added a number of representatives of government agencies, the IT sector, and the UK legal services market to the so-called stop list.

Among them are employees of the British company Micro Focus, which allegedly provides Ukrainian security agencies with software and cyber defense services needed to collect data for the purpose of striking at Russian troops and infrastructure.

The Russian list also includes Britons involved in "attempts to impose illegitimate unilateral restrictions imposed by the West on the economic operators of Central Asian states", as the Russian Foreign Ministry puts it.
