MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that Moscow does not rule out that Ukraine could benefit from the terrorist attack at the Crocus concert hall on March 22.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that it had conveyed to Ukraine its demand that those involved in terrorist attacks on Russian territory, including Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) head Vasyl Malyuk, be arrested and ceded to Moscow.
"The Russian Foreign Ministry conveyed to the Ukrainian authorities demands under the International Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Bombings and the International Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism for the immediate arrest and handover of all persons involved in these terrorist attacks," the statement read.
The list of wanted people includes Malyuk, who admitted on March 25 to have been involved in organizing the Crimean Bridge explosion and revealed details of several other terrorist attacks in Russia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry also demanded that Kiev stop any support of terrorism and compensate the victims for the damage.
