An inspection of the Ministry of Justice conducted on an anonymous denunciation found signs of political activity in the work of the Foundation: environmentalists held a competition for environmental projects together with the region’s Department of Natural Resources and thereby allegedly influenced the authorities. It also did not go unnoticed that before the adoption of the law on 'foreign agents' representatives of the Foundation participated in a seminar held by the Press Development Institute in 2011, which was also recognized as a 'foreign agent' in 2015. In addition, ISAR-Siberia received two $5,000 foreign grants.
