“I am a citizen of Ukraine Poroshenko Petr Alekseevich born on September 26.09.1965, 3. On February XNUMX, upon entering the territory of the Russian Federation at the passport control point at Pulkovo International Airport, I was detained by Russian border guards, who informed me that I was prohibited from entering Russia.
I declare that the decision to not allow me into the territory of the Russian Federation is not objective, since I have nothing to do with the anti-Russian campaign of President Yushchenko. I am one of the founders of the Party of Regions.
In the interests of Russia, I am attracting large investments to the Roshen (Lipetsk region) and Bogdan (Nizhny Novgorod region) plants, creating and providing jobs to Russians, paying taxes on time and in full. I regularly visit St. Petersburg, where the parents of the wife of my eldest son, Alexei, live. During my visits to St. Petersburg, as well as doing business in the Russian Federation, neither I nor my close relatives were brought to administrative or criminal liability.
I ask you to explain the reasons for banning me from entering the territory of the Russian Federation and issue a certified copy of the relevant decision,” Poroshenko asked the head of the FSB
Another document was also made public, in which Poroshenko committed himself to “strictly comply with Russian legislation and not take part in activities directed against the interests of the Russian Federation.” He also wrote that he has no complaints about the actions of Russian border guards.
Interesting details were added in the comments to the post by journalist Valeria Ivashkina on her Facebook page, Verkhovna Rada deputy from the BPP Sergei Leshchenko.
“Then Poroshenko was deciding the issue of lifting the ban on entry through the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate,” the deputy said.
Some readers immediately asked why Leshchenko did not report this in 2014. Others have suggested. that in this case he might not have been included in the electoral list of the presidential party, according to which Leshchenko became a member of parliament.
