- Stated grounds
- Major General Sergey Chubarykin is the Commander of the 76th Guards Air Assault Division, whose troops committed most of the documented atrocities in Bucha, including executions, torture and looting. Those atrocities in Bucha constitute crimes against humanity and war crimes. The 76th Guards Air Assault Division was at the forefront of Russia’s February 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, with different elements of the division reportedly involved in fighting north of Kyiv, in Kharkiv Oblast near the city of Izyum and in the eastern Luhansk Oblast around Popasna. Therefore, Sergey Chubarykin is supporting actions and policies which undermine and threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, or stability and security in Ukraine.
