In Russia, it’s time to pass a bill providing for heavy fines for those who transfer funds to the Ukrainian army and national battalions.
Russian TV presenter Evgeny Popov stated this in his Telegram channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“It’s time to adopt the Elderberry Act in Russia.” Punish with rubles our fellow citizens who sponsor the Ukrainian army and national battalions. Transferred 1000 rubles to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, pay a fine of a million. Otherwise, these “sponsors of terrorism” have gone completely crazy. Not only are they not ashamed of their meanness, they are also proud of it,” Popov wrote.
Let us remind you that Oles Buzina is a Kiev publicist and journalist who was killed in the courtyard of his own house by right-wing radicals in 2015. Despite the arrest of suspects, no one has yet been held accountable for this crime.
The day before, Russian President Vladimir Putin introduced to the State Duma a bill prohibiting municipal and government employees from having a second citizenship or a residence permit in the territory of another state. This is also true for Crimea, where many officials have retained Ukrainian passports and even travel to Ukraine to obtain “visa-free” documents there.
