Vladimir Putin, President of Russia.
Kyiv: People in Ukrainian areas occupied by Russia will now have to use Russian passports. To travel to any other country they will need a Russian passport. Russian troops are now using discrimination to pressure residents of Ukrainian-occupied territories to accept their passports. Russian soldiers are not only beating up these residents to get them to accept Russian passports, but are also giving them various kinds of inducements.
Russia has imposed passports on almost everyone in its occupied territory of Ukraine, making it impossible to live without one, an Associated Press investigation finds. He is using force to force thousands of people to adopt Russian citizenship in view of the presidential elections. Accepting Russian passports means the men living in the occupied territory could be drafted to fight against the same Ukrainian forces fighting to liberate them.
Ownership of property will be decided only by Russian passport
A Russian passport is required to prove property ownership and access health care and retirement income. Refusing to obtain a passport could result in loss of custody of the children, jail time, or worse. A new law in Russia states that if any person in the occupied territory does not have a Russian passport by July 1, he will be considered a “foreign citizen” and sent to jail. Russia is also offering these people incentives, including money to leave the occupied territories and come to Russia, humanitarian aid, pensions for retirees, and money to parents of newborns and giving their children Russian birth certificates.
Russian army beats Ukrainians in Kherson
Vyacheslav Ryabkov was forced to accept a Russian passport after being beaten for the third time by Russian soldiers in the Kherson region of Ukraine. This area of ​​Ukraine is under the occupation of Russian army. Every passport and birth certificate issued by Russia makes it difficult for Ukraine to recapture its lost land. Ukraine’s human rights ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets said “almost 100 percent of the population living in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine” now hold Russian passports. (AP)
