How to conduct operations if a drone operator is formally registered in the European Union but every document that they have provided to the EU Member State with the application for an operational authorisation (including the operations manual and risk assessment) clearly indicates that the actual operator is indeed a Russian operator?

Answer
Under the Sanctions Regulations, it is prohibited for Russian unmanned-aircraft operators to operate within the European Union. If the competent authority has grounds to believe that the actual operator is not the EU applicant but the operator from Russia, the application should be rejected.
