MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Kiev is investigating the circumstances of a visit of NBC News journalists to Crimea, who are now facing a ban on entry into Ukraine, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko said on Tuesday.
Earlier in the day, the US broadcaster reported that its journalists traveled to Crimea by train from Moscow and talked with local residents.
“Visiting… Crimea from the territory of the Russian Federation is a violation of the legislation of Ukraine. Legal liability is provided for violators. In particular, foreigners also face a ban on entry into Ukraine for such actions,” Nikolenko said on social media.
The competent Ukrainian authorities are now establishing the circumstances of the journalists’ visit to Crimea, the spokesman added.
Crimea became part of Russia in a referendum held in March 2014, in which nearly 96% of Crimeans voted for accession to Russia.
