This was announced by the assistant to the chairman of the State Border Service of Ukraine Oleg Slobodyan.

“Yesterday, July 1, he (Borzov - Ed.) flew to Zhulyany airport from Minsk. During the conversation, it was established that he visited occupied Crimea in 2017, by the way, the last time was not so long ago, violating the legislation of Ukraine, that is, through closed checkpoints. In accordance with Ukrainian legislation, based on this information, a decision was made not to allow him into the territory of Ukraine and to ban him from entering the territory of Ukraine for a period of 3 years,” he said.

Earlier today it became known that Ukrainian border guards did not allow singer Tatyana Lipnitskaya, who performs under the creative pseudonym Bianca, into the country.

“Yesterday I cried after a conversation with a representative of the Ukrainian border service in Odessa, after they put a stamp in my passport denying entry into the territory of a country with which we speak almost the same language (since I am a citizen of Belarus). “I’m not offended or angry, but on the contrary, I really hope that this letter will be seen, and I will come to you on tour as soon as possible and buy crustaceans at Privoz,” she wrote on Instagram. According to her, she was supposed to perform in Odessa on June 30.

The lead singer of the group Dolphin, Andrei Lysikov, was also not allowed into Ukraine because of his visit to Crimea. This was reported on the Facebook page of the Ukrainian festival Atlas Weekend. However, Lysikov treated Ukrainian laws with understanding.

“I was in Crimea and they didn’t let me into Kyiv. There is such a law and it is fulfilled. Other members of the group successfully crossed the border. They are ready to play a concert where I won’t be there,” the message says.
