UK imposes sanctions against representatives of Russian and Moldovan power structures and politicians

The UK has introduced restrictive measures against representatives of the FSB and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as well as Moldovan politicians Ilan Shor and Vladimir Plahotniuc, as stated in the sanctions list updated on Friday on the website of the UK government.

Reported from TASS that sanctions, implying a ban on entry into the UK and freezing assets in case of their discovery, were applied against Andrey Tishenin, member of the Russian Federal Security Service in Crimea, and Artur Shambazov, a senior detective in the Autonomous republic of Crimea, Valentin Oparin, Major of Justice for the Russian Federation, and Oleg Tkachenko, Head of Public Prosecutions for the Rostov region. All of them were included in the UK sanctions list due to alleged cases of human rights violations.
