Ukraine Bans Military Age Russian Men From Entering the Country Due to ‘Threat of Full Scale War’

The new restrictions on Russian immigration, which includes a complete ban on Russian men ages 16 to 60 entering the country, comes just days after Russian warships fired on and ultimately seized a number of Ukrainian vessels in the Kerch Strait off the coast of Crimea. “As of today, the entrance of foreigners is limited, first of all for citizens of Russia,” Petro Tsygykal, the head of state border guard service, told Poroshenko Friday, according to a statement on the official presidential website.
