Notes (2)
Vice-Admiral Vladimir KASATONOV is the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Navy of the Russian Federation. 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 Deputy Commander-in-Chief, there are reasonable grounds to suspect that Vice-Admiral KASATONOV will have directed operations against Ukraine by the Russian Navy and/or otherwise have had responsibility for, involvement in and influence over such operations. He has also been utilised as a special envoy to garner support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He is therefore 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.
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).
