英国理由声明 |
Admiral Nikolay YEVMENOV is the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy of the Russian Federation. A career soldier he has held many high-level commands in his rise to the top of the Navy. It is known that elements of the Russian Navy have been heavily involved in the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by Russia, including conducting missile strikes on cities and launching amphibious assaults. As the Naval Supreme Commander, Admiral YEVMENOV should have complete situational awareness and control over what his Navy does. There are therefore reasonable grounds to suspect that he is a person who is responsible for, engages in, provides support for, or promotes any policy or action which destabilises Ukraine or undermines or threatens the territorial integrity, sovereignty or independence of Ukraine.
