Official reasons
- Svetlana KRIVONOGIKH is an involved person within the meaning of the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ('Russia Regulations') because she is a shareholder of Bank Rossiya. In turn, Bank Rossiya is a significant stakeholder in National Media Group, which controls major TV stations in Russia that promote the destabilisation of Ukraine. Bank Rossiya has also made substantial investments into Crimea following the Russian annexation of the Ukrainian territory in 2014. Therefore, through her shareholding, there are reasonable grounds to suspect that KRIVONOGIKH fulfils designation criteria under regulations 6(3)(b) and 6(3)(c)(ii) of the Russia Regulations in that she makes available funds to persons (Bank Rossiya) who provide financial services, make available funds economic resources or goods that could contribute to destabilising Ukraine or undermining or threating the territorial integrity, sovereignty or independence of Ukraine. The trust services sanctions were imposed on 21/03/2023.
