MOSCOW Russia has sent a request to the World Trade Organization asking to hold consultations over Ukraine's sanctions against Moscow, in place since 2014, Russian Economy Minister Maxim Oreshkin was quoted as saying by Russian news agencies on Saturday.

He added that the request was regarding restrictions on Russian goods, services, transit and other issues imposed by Ukraine in response to Russia's role in the Ukraine crisis, the reports said.

"There are serious grounds to believe that by all these measures taken, Ukraine is violating its obligations towards WTO," Oreshkin said, according to Russian news agencies.

This week, Ukraine imposed economic restrictions on Russia's largest internet group Yandex (YNDX.O) and other popular online firms, saying it wanted to guard against cyber threats.

UKRAINES Young Communist League (LKMSU) accused authorities on Thursday of subjecting several of its student members to trial by a kangaroo court.

Three LKMSU members one aged just 15 were convicted of terrorist offences on Tuesday.

They were arrested for laying flowers to commemorate the Soviet Unions World War II victory over fascism on May 9, carrying a communist banner and the orange and black St George ribbon now an anti-fascist symbol.

One 22-year-old student received a two-and-a-half-year sentence for the aggravating factor of posting the criminal slogan Lenin lives on Facebook.

In a statement, the LKMSU said the verdict handed down by the Halytsky District Court in the western city of Lvov was illegal, rendered in violation of the constitution of Ukraine and the laws of Ukraine.
