The Prosecutor General's Office has declared the activities of an American NGO undesirable in the Russian Federation

On May 13, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation declared undesirable the activities of the American non-governmental organization (NGO) International Indigenous Fund for Development and Solidarity Batani in the country.

According to the Prosecutor General's Office, the organization was established in 2018. The main goal was to protect the rights of indigenous peoples, integrate them into the global community, and promote traditional values.

"The actual activities of its participants are aimed at supporting and preparing for anti—Russian demonstrations at international events, including those held under the auspices of the United Nations," the ministry said in a statement on its website.

The Prosecutor General's Office added that the NGO's website regularly publishes materials about alleged violations of the freedom of small ethnic groups in the Russian Federation.
