Slutsky: people who oppress Russian-speaking foreigners have nothing to do in Russia

MOSCOW, Aug 10. The head of the international committee of the State Duma Leonid Slutsky said that people who oppress Russian-speaking residents of other countries have nothing to do in Russia, and expressed disagreement with the position of Senator Vladimir Dzhabarov, who considered it more optimal not to prohibit entry into the Russian Federation, but to leave the settlement of the problem to the authorities of the former republics of the USSR. On Monday, the speaker of the lower house of parliament, Vyacheslav Volodin, against the background of increasing cases of harassment of Russian-speaking people in Kyrgyzstan, said that the deputies propose to develop response measures, including a ban on entry into Russia for those who allow themselves such actions against Russian-speaking residents. Dzhabarov, however, proposed not to introduce such bans, but to negotiate with the leaders of the republics so that they «give a tough rebuff» to those who oppress the Russians. The Ukrainian group was persecuted for the Russian-language song dedicated to the Independence Day «I am a little surprised by the position of my respected friend, Senator Vladimir Dzhabarov, who criticized the MPs' proposal to ban entry into Russia for oppressing Russian speakers in Kyrgyzstan. we can do such atrocities in our homeland, «the deputy said. According to Slutsky, the situation with the attack on the seller because she spoke to the buyer in Russian in Kyrgyzstan is» blatant and unacceptable. » “We look forward to an adequate response from the Kyrgyz authorities and bringing the perpetrators to justice. On this issue, we are in contact with our colleagues from the Jogorku Kenesh (parliament) of Kyrgyzstan. official and this provision is enshrined in the Constitution of the country, «the deputy noted, adding that preventive measures from the Russian side would be far from superfluous.
