Krasnodar Territory continues to deport natives of Georgia
In the Krasnodar Territory, they continue to deport natives of Georgia illegally staying in Russia. A total of 50 persons will be excluded. The main reasons are incorrect documents and expires visas, the "Novye Izvestia" (Fresh News) reports. The deportation costs are born by the federal budget. A ticket to Yerevan costs 4000 roubles.
The Kuban region practiced deportation well before the anti-Georgian campaign. Last year, the authorities forcibly displaced 1800 persons out of the Territory, mainly citizens of Armenia and Georgia. Under the estimate of the leaders of the Georgian community, now 10,000 illegal migrants from Georgia reside in the Krasnodar Territory.
Earlier, the Russian Federation suspended its air, railway, automobile and postal communications with Georgia. The sanctions were a continuation of the espionage scandal that burst out in Georgia on September 27. The scandal implications were multiple facts of oppression towards Georgian natives by members of power agencies.
