The State Border Service of Ukraine (SBSU) did not let across the border and banned the entry to Ukraine for three years to two other Russian journalists who illegally visited the annexed Crimea, said the speaker of the SBS Oleg Slobodyan.
"This morning the State Border Guard Service did not pass through the border and banned the entry into Ukraine for 3 years to two other Russian journalist who violated Ukrainian legislation and visited the temporarily occupied peninsula through temporarily closed checkpoints. The State Border Service emphasizes that the availability of accreditation for Eurovision is not a document that gives the right to cross the border, "he wrote on Facebook.
Slobodyan stressed that when making decisions of the SBS, in conjunction with the SBU and the NSU, they are guided solely by the interests and legislation of Ukraine.
