This would not sit well with Russia.

"The Ukrainian justice is likely to stick to the Vienna convention, which makes British citizen Platon Yelenin a refugee," she added.

That strikes me as very strange. "British citizen Platon Yelenin" is Boris Berezovsky's false identity. He took the name "Platon", as I understand, from the main character of the film Oligarch ("Tycoon: the New Russian"). The idea that Ukraine would have to pretend that they don't know that "Platon Yelenin" is Boris Berezovsky is quite odd to me.
