Investigative Committee chief Aleksandr Bastrykin has said that migrants who obtained Russian citizenship should be stripped of it if they refuse to fight in Ukraine. "If, as a citizen of the Russian Federation, one is not ready to fulfill one's military duty, one should be deprived of Russian citizenship," Bastrykin was quoted by the committee's press service as saying on October 19. In August, security forces conducted raids in several Russian regions in search of men who recently received Russian citizenship and did not register for the military. The police handed them summonses on the spot or immediately took them to military barracks. To read the original story by RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service, click here.
