Designated for the purposes of an asset freeze and a travel ban under the Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. The designation is made as a designation by name under the urgent procedure. The relevant provision by reference to which the Minister considers that condition B is met is the European Union’s Council Decision 2014/145/CFSP (as amended) concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, and Council Regulation (EU) No 269/2014. The purposes of this provision correspond or are similar to the purposes of the UK’s Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, which have as their purposes to encourage Russia to cease actions destabilising Ukraine or undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty or independence of Ukraine. The Minister considers that it is in the public interest to designate (condition C).
Colonel Aleksandr Leonidovich SHERSHNEV is a member of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, he currently holds the position of Colonel within 64th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade. We have reasonable grounds to suspect he was either in direct command of, or in a position to hold considerable situational awareness of, troops involved in the killing of civilians in the Kyiv suburb of Bucha during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. There are therefore reasonable grounds to suspect 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.
