The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine declares that after the introduction on January 1, 2018. biometric control for Russians at the entrance to the territory of the Nezalezhnaya employees of the Border Guard Service of the FSB of Russia allegedly stopped passing Ukrainians to the Russian Federation without explaining the reasons. The Kiev side immediately accused Moscow of "provocative actions". This was reported by the first deputy chairman of the State Border Service of Ukraine Vasily Servatyuk. Recall, since the beginning of the new year, post-Maidan authorities introduced biocontrol during the border crossing for Russians and subjects of another 70 countries. "As we expected, during the holidays there were provocative actions against our citizens by the Russian Federation in connection with the introduction of biometric control. Only during today's day, the Russian side refused to skip 18 of our vehicles, without drawing up relevant documents and explaining the reasons, "- said on the eve of the words of Servatyuk TV channel TSN. It is noted that Kiev in anticipation of an increase in provocations, in connection with which the Ukrainian border guards strengthened checkpoints with equipment and personnel. Earlier, on January 6, the SPSU press secretary Oleg Slobodyan stated that more than 15 thousand Russians have passed the biocontrol since the New Year. Earlier it was reported that special equipment was installed in almost 160 checkpoints, primarily on the border with Russia. Also authorized the Parliament of Ukraine on January 4 of the Human Rights Valeria Lutkovska recommended to participants ATO did not go to Russia. This her advice is connected with the fact that the SBU claimed that the Russian special services allegedly openly hunted Ukrainian citizens on the territory of the Russian Federation, and their detention is systemic in nature.

Probably, Mrs. Lutkovskaya and the employees of the special services of the Nezalezhnaya periodically fall into unconsciousness and forget that dozens of criminal cases have been opened in Russia for atolls taking part in the shelling of the peaceful settlements of Donbass, as a result of which there are victims. In the same unconsciousness, the Ukrainian servicemen and representatives of the disparate national battles themselves, who for some reason after "military works" go to Russia.
