The Ministry of Education and Science has prohibited students from keeping books by Boris Akunin and Dmitry Bykov in dormitories. The agency requires university administrators to inform students and applicants about the ban. The document mentions that the writers are included in the register of «foreign agents», and Akunin is included in the list of «extremists and terrorists» by Rosfinmonitoring.
Thus, the ministry plans to «ensure safe learning and living conditions in dormitories».
The document was published by Boris Akunin. «They sent something beautiful», — commented the writer on the directive.
