Kiev will ban Russian adult men aged 16-60 years from entering Ukraine, President Petro Poroshenko was quoted as saying Friday. The head of the border service Petro Tsygykal said that that the entry of foreigners has already been limited. Tsygykal cited in a televised meeting “non-admission of citizens of the Russian Federation aged from 16 to 60, male,” Reuters reports. This week, Ukraine imposed martial law in several regions after the Kerch Strait standoff. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavel Klimkin said on television on Thursday night that the government in Kiev will soon unilaterally terminate about 40 bilateral agreements with Russia, TASS reports. “Recently, we have terminated 48 international agreements [with Russia]. However, this should be done very carefully… so that our Ukrainian citizens were not affected,” he said.
