A group of journalists, experts, and leaders of pro-Ukrainian NGOs has been placed on Moscow\u2019s entry-ban list<\/strong><\/p>\n

Moscow has added five British nationals to its blacklist over London\u2019s hostile actions, spread of disinformation, and the concentrated effort \u201cto pump up the Kiev regime with weaponry,\u201d<\/em> the Russian Foreign Ministry has said.<\/p>\n

The ministry announced the move on Tuesday, urging London \u201cto renounce aggressive anti-Russian steps, as well as its support for the [Vladimir] Zelensky regime.\u201d<\/em> The UK\u2019s effort to prolong the Ukraine conflict no matter what leads only to \u201cfurther civilian casualties\u201d<\/em> and ultimately the \u201cdestruction of Ukrainian statehood,\u201d<\/em> it said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest addition to Russia\u2019s no-entry list includes journalists and experts involved in \u201cdisseminating slanderous fabrications and false information.\u201d<\/em> It also features two heads of \u201cBritish security companies\u201d<\/em> that recruit personnel to prop up the Kiev regime under the guise of \u201cimplementing pseudo-humanitarian projects in Ukraine,\u201d<\/em> the ministry stated.<\/p>\n

The sanctioned individuals are Catherine Belton and Richard Holmes, journalists with the Washington Post and The i Paper, respectively. The list also includes Alexander Browder, a self-styled corruption and money-laundering expert, described by the ministry as the author of a misleading report for the Henry Jackson Society think tank.<\/p>\n

The restrictions have also been slapped on Alice Laugher, CEO of Committed to Good (CTG), an NGO, supposedly involved in \u201chumanitarian and development projects in fragile and conflict-affected areas.\u201d<\/em> Nicholas Westbury, one of the founders of CTG\u2019s parent company, the Chelsea Group, has also made the list.<\/p>\n

Russian diplomats said work on the blacklist, as well as other retaliatory measures, is bound to continue unless London abandons its hostile stance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe warn that any efforts by British political elites to further fuel Russophobia, deliberately damage our country\u2019s international reputation, and accelerate the anti-Russian sanctions will inevitably be met with a decisive response,\u201d<\/em> the ministry stated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

London has emerged as a key backer of Kiev in the Ukraine conflict, actively seeking to derail attempts to resolve it through diplomacy and focusing on inflicting a defeat on Russia instead. The UK has been leading various initiatives to supply Ukrainian forces with increasingly sophisticated weaponry, and to rally additional foreign monetary and military support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
