Crimean President Sergei Aksyonov suggested that those who do not stand up when the Russian anthem is played should be stripped of their Russian citizenship. He said this on the broadcast of the TV channel “Crimea 24”.
“I consider it necessary to raise the issue of deprivation of citizenship if the case of disobeying the Russian anthem is documented,” the official said.
The head of Crimea wondered whether it was worth giving up citizenship to those who did not respect the symbols of the state – the flag and the anthem. Aksyonov called for such persons to be stripped of citizenship in court.
Former Russian President Vladimir Putin presented calls for action against the territorial integrity of the Russian Federation, to discredit the military, to deprive the acquired citizenship of the Russian Federation for joining an undesirable foreign or international NPO.
Last November, Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev declaration In a speech to the Federation Council, he said that none of the Russians who received Russian citizenship by birth could be deprived of it.
