Boris Nemtsov: Yanukovych follows path of Lukashenka, who banned me entry too

One of the leader of the Russian opposition comments on the entry denial to Ukraine.

The Ukrainian security services sent the Russian opposition politicians, a recipient of Ukraine's the Order of Prince Yaroslav the Wise, a written notice informing that he is not allowed to enter Ukraine.

“Ukraine's security services banned me from entering the country. Yanukovych follows Lukashenka's path. The latter also didn't allow me to come. I can visit Belarus now, but Kiev is closed for me. I wonder how many recipients of the Order of Prince Yaroslav the Wise besides me cannot enter the country,” the politician wrote on Facebook.

Information about the entry ban for Nemtsov appeared yesterday evening. The Ukrainian security services neither explained the reason for the entry denial for Boris Nemtsov and nor informed how long the ban would remain in force.
