"Russia has designated Amnesty International as an undesirable organization, alleging it supports extremist groups and contributes to military conflict, particularly concerning Ukraine."
"The Russian authorities claim that Amnesty's London office prepares global Russophobic projects funded by Ukrainian regime supporters, intensifying tensions since the conflict began."
Russian authorities have designated Amnesty International as an 'undesirable organization', claiming it supports extremist entities and propagates pro-war content aligned with Western Ukraine allies. The Russian Prosecutor General's Office accused Amnesty's London branch of facilitating anti-Russian activities and intensifying military confrontations since February 2022. This designation prohibits the organization from operating in Russia, with potential criminal penalties for those interacting with it. Amnesty, which works globally to uphold human rights, has previously faced scrutiny from the Kremlin, which also lists 223 other entities as undesirable, including independent media and rights groups.
