A well-known Russian blogger was denied entry to Ukraine in the seaport "Chornomorsk". The reason for this was the violation of the rules for visiting the occupied Crimea peninsula in 2016. During a conversation with border guards, the Russian blogger confirmed his stay in the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea in 2016. He said that he got to the peninsula by ferry service through the closed checkpoint "Kerch".
