Descriptions

Co-founder and editor-in-chief of the REGNUM portal

Australian Sanctions Consolidated List,

Therefore, he is responsible for actively supporting or implementing, actions or policies which undermine or threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, as well as stability and security in Ukraine, and for obstructing the work of international organisations in Ukraine. Modest Kolerov is co-founder of the REGNUM portal, which he has used to spread aggressive and biased propagandist narratives against Ukraine, and to promote a positive attitude to the annexation of Crimea and the actions of separatists in Donbas. He often depicted Ukraine as fascist or neo-Nazi country, and a pro-Western puppet. He stated that Ukraine had been artificially created by Lenin and Stalin. According to his publications, Ukraine owes its independence to Russia and thus it deserves no right to be a sovereign state. He also suggested that Russia should put an end to Ukraine’s existence. Furthermore, he proposed to divide Ukraine between its neighbours and threatened that an independent Ukraine would be a threat to Russia. He actively advocated for the recognition of so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic” and “Luhansk People’s Republic”, and for more Russian actions in favour of the separatists in Eastern Ukraine. He negated proof of Russian military support for the separatists, and depicted the OSCE’s mission in Eastern Ukraine, as biased and subordinate to Kyiv.

Function: Co-founder of the REGNUM portal, which specializes in the post-Soviet area. From 2005 to 2007 he worked in the Presidential Administration.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

De 2005 à 2007, il a travaillé au sein de l’administration présidentielle. - Modest Kolerov est co-fondateur du portail REGNUM, qu’il a utilisé pour diffuser des récits de propagande agressifs et partiaux contre l’Ukraine et pour promouvoir une attitude favorable à l’annexion de la Crimée et aux actions des séparatistes dans le Donbass. Il a souvent décrit l’Ukraine comme un pays fasciste ou néo-nazi et une marionnette de l’Occident. Il a déclaré que l’Ukraine avait été artificiellement créée par Lénine et Staline. D’après ses publications, l’Ukraine doit son indépendance à la Russie et ne mérite donc pas le droit d’être un État souverain. Il a également suggéré que la Russie pourrait mettre fin à l’existence de l’Ukraine. En outre, il a proposé de diviser l’Ukraine entre ses voisins et a fait valoir qu’une Ukraine indépendante serait une menace pour la Russie. Il a activement plaidé pour la reconnaissance des soi-disant “République populaire de Donetsk” et “République populaire de Louhansk”, ainsi que pour davantage d’actions russes en faveur des séparatistes de l’est de l’Ukraine. Il a nié des preuves de soutien militaire russe aux séparatistes et a décrit la mission de l’OSCE dans l’est de l’Ukraine comme étant partiale et subordonnée à Kiev. Il est donc responsable de soutenir activement ou de mettre en œuvre des actions ou des politiques compromettant ou menaçant l’intégrité territoriale, la souveraineté et l’indépendance de l’Ukraine, de même que la stabilité et la sécurité de l’Ukraine, et de faire obstruction à l’action d’organisations internationales en Ukraine.
