“Requirements: basic knowledge of the Ukrainian language and an oath that you will not commit actions aimed at harming state interests,” the publication’s interlocutor points out the conditions for obtaining Ukrainian citizenship. – This will give 20 million fundamentally new voters outside the country. The overwhelming majority are middle class and above. These are bearers of a different, non-Soviet philosophy.”
According to Yanevsky, these people will not take bribes, and they themselves will receive the right to be elected to executive authorities.
