Keosayan, Margarita Simonyan, and Roman Babayan arrived in occupied Donetsk to participate in the so-called "Russian Donbas Forum."
Spokesperson for Ukraine's Foreign Ministry Oleh Nikolenko says the ministry has requested that the law enforcement ban Russian propagandist Tigran Keosayan, who has been hosting the propaganda-satirical show Mezhdunarodnaya Pilorama ('International Sawmill') on Russia's NTV channel, from crossing into Ukraine.
Nikolenko posted the relevant statement on Twitter on January 28 in response to the arrival of Russian propagandists Keosayan, Margarita Simonyan, and Roman Babayan in the Russian-occupied city of Donetsk to participate in the so-called "Russian Donbas Forum."
