The report of the Delfi portal states that the Minister of the Interior of Latvia, Kristaps Eklons, considered the proposal of the State Security Service and added Korostelev to the “black list”.

According to the portal, Korostelev worked from Georgia and does not have a Latvian visa or residence permit, so the Latvian authorities cannot hold him accountable.

Earlier, Korostelev was dismissed by decision of the leadership after he announced on air that he would help mobilized Russian servicemen with “equipment and simply with basic amenities at the front.”
