State Duma deputy Ivan Sukharev proposed checking compliance with legal grounds when issuing Russian passports to foreigners over the past ten years. A copy of the letter addressed to the First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Government Andrei Belousov is at RT’s disposal.
According to him, there are citizens who receive Russian citizenship in violation of migration legislation and subsequently connect their lives with the criminal environment. Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow reported that 42 thousand migrants were deported from the capital during the year.
