mp-from-orkney-and-shetland-calls-russia-travel-ban-a-badge-of-honor

Alistair Carmichael, the MP from Orkney and Shetland, dunno why he’s banned from Russia, but taking it as a “badge of honor.”
Got added to a list of politicians banned by Putin for supporting Ukraine.
He won’t stop speaking out against Russia’s war in Ukraine, even with the ban.
Not really sure why he’d be traveling there soon, anyways.
Not sure why the Kremlin targets him now, three years after the Ukraine invasion.
He thinks he was banned from Russia ages ago, but can’t figure out why now.
Says those “diseased minds in the Kremlin” are behind it all.
In 2022, he supported blocking a Russian oil tanker from docking in Orkney.
Doesn’t know how the Kremlin’s minds work, but he’s not letting up on Putin.
At the last election, a rival candidate doubted Russia’s involvement in the Salisbury poisonings, making Carmichael concerned.
