Belgian Financial Sanctions,

Lyudmila Mikhailovna Zharkova serves, since June 2025, as the Deputy President of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. She is one of the Judges of the Constitutional Court of Russia who recognised as constitutional the “agreements” on the admission of the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions, the so-called “Luhansk People’s Republic” and the so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic” to the Russian Federation. Those decisions artificially create the image of the legitimacy of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and are aimed at endowing them with features of actors of international legal relations. The Constitutional Court formally plays a decisive role in the process of accession of foreign territories to Russia. Therefore, Lyudmila Mikhailovna Zharkova is responsible for, supporting or implementing actions or policies which undermine or threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, or stability or security in Ukraine, or which obstruct the work of international organisations in Ukraine.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Lyudmila Mikhailovna Zharkova exerce, depuis juin 2025, les fonctions de vice-présidente de la Cour constitutionnelle de la Fédération de Russie. Elle est l’un des juges de la Cour constitutionnelle de Russie, qui a reconnu comme étant constitutionnels les “accords” sur l’admission des régions de Kherson et de Zaporijjia, de la soi-disant “République populaire de Louhansk” et de la soi-disant “République populaire de Donetsk” dans la Fédération de Russie. Ces décisions créent artificiellement une image de légitimité de l’invasion de l’Ukraine par la Russie et visent à leur conférer les caractéristiques d’acteurs des relations juridiques internationales. La Cour constitutionnelle joue formellement un rôle décisif dans le processus d’adhésion de territoires étrangers à la Russie. Par conséquent, Lyudmila Mikhailovna Zharkova est responsable d’actions ou de politiques qui compromettent ou menacent l’intégrité territoriale, la souveraineté et l’indépendance de l’Ukraine, ou la stabilité ou la sécurité en Ukraine, ou qui font obstruction à l’action d’organisations internationales en Ukraine, ou soutient ou met en œuvre de telles actions ou politiques.
