Prosecutor General's Office declares Amnesty International undesirable in Russia

The PGO explained that since the beginning of the special military operation Amnesty International activists have been doing everything possible to fuel the military confrontation in the region

MOSCOW, May 19. /TASS/. The Russian Prosecutor General's Office has declared the activities of the international non-governmental organization Amnesty International undesirable in Russia.

"The Prosecutor General's Office has made a decision to recognize the activities of Amnesty International Limited, an international non-governmental organization registered in London, as undesirable on the territory of Russia," the statement reads.

The PGO explained that since the beginning of the special military operation Amnesty International activists have been doing everything possible to fuel the military confrontation in the region: they justify crimes committed by Ukrainian neo-Nazis, call for an increase in their funding, and insist on Russia’s political and economic isolation. "The participants in the organization support extremist organizations and finance the activities of foreign agents," the agency said.

The organization positions itself as an active promoter of human rights protection in the world, but in reality, the London headquarters of Amnesty International is a training center for global Russophobic projects paid for by the Kiev regime's accomplices.
