| UK Statement of Reasons | 'Luhansk Economic Union is a ‘Social organisation’ that presented candidates in the illegal so-called ‘elections’ of the so-called ‘Lugansk People’s Republic’ on 2 November 2014. The organisation nominated candidate, Oleg AKIMOV, to be ‘Head’ of the so-called ‘Lugansk People’s Republic’. These ‘elections’ are in breach of Ukrainian law and therefore illegal. In participating formally in the illegal ‘elections’ it has therefore actively supported actions and policies which undermine the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, and to further destabilise Ukraine. The trust services sanctions were imposed on 21/03/2023. |
