According to him, the bill on simplified granting of citizenship to Ukrainians has been hanging in the State Duma for almost three years.
“In 14, we introduced a bill on granting citizenship in a simplified form to Ukrainians, not only the LPR and DPR - to all citizens of Ukraine who can no longer live there. Four million have already left and are working here. This is my position, this is the position of my colleagues in the “A Just Russia” faction – it is necessary to grant citizenship in an expedited manner in order to save people,” Nilov said.
As PolitNavigator reported, the leader of the Ukrainian right-wing party “Svoboda” Oleg Tyagnibok threatened to deprive Crimeans of passports and deport them to Russia
