Russian poetess denied entry to Ukraine

According to the report, the Russian woman, 25, arrived from Spain. During the registration, the border guards established that she had illegally visited the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea in violation of the established entry and exit procedure.

"The Russian woman, who turned out to be a poetess and author of various projects, has repeatedly published materials on Crimean issues and information about visiting the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. The woman said that she visited the peninsula last year and got there by train," the report said.

Ukrinform learned from its own sources that the woman is Alisa Denisova, born in 1996, who published information about her stay in Crimea on the Russian social networking site VK.

The Russian was not allowed to cross the state border and was banned from entering Ukraine for three years for violating Ukrainian law.
