Executive

Alesya Miloradovich is a collaborator of the Government of the Russian Federation in France, and calls herself a “foreign affairs facilitator”. Alesya Miloradovich organised a so-called “electoral observation” mission in the Ukrainian territories illegally occupied by Russia, in the context of the referendum on the annexation of those regions to Russia, and recruited French nationals who participated in the mission. She publicly admitted that she did this for the benefit of the Russian Government. She was also a co-organiser of trips for French children to the Artek International Children Center in illegally annexed Crimea, which were funded by the Government of the Russian Federation. She has also been involved in the Russian propaganda project “Foreign journalists for Russia” and has participated in spreading pro-Russian views, including by claiming that French and Western societies support Russian actions against Ukraine. Therefore, Alesya Miloradovich is responsible for, implementing, supporting or benefiting from actions or policies by the Government of the Russian Federation which undermine or threaten democracy, the rule of law, stability or security in a third country by planning, directing, engaging in, directly or indirectly, or otherwise facilitating the obstruction or undermining of the democratic political process of a third country, including by attempting to destabilise its constitutional order.
