VIDEO: Putin Demands Rapid Deportation of Illegal Migrant Workers

Russian President Vladimir Putin has demanded the rapid deportation of migrants who illegally work in Russia, violate the law, and are considered extremists. The president also noted that the entry of such migrants into the country should be prohibited. This information has been reported by RIA Novosti.

“Illegal migration, the activities of criminal groups that build their businesses on illegal immigration, must be met with the strictest measures. Any manifestation of extremism, violations of the law, and illegal work activities should serve as grounds for the rapid adoption and implementation of decisions regarding the expulsion of such individuals from Russia and a ban on their future entry into our country,” Putin emphasized.

The head of state requested that these demands be taken into account when developing measures aimed at simplifying the procedures for acquiring citizenship, granting permanent or temporary residence and work rights in Russia, and participating in state programs to support the voluntary resettlement of compatriots.
