The authorities of the Russian Federation to cancel the decision on the granting of citizenship to join ISIS

The law prohibits the deprivation of citizenship of the Russians, reminded Vladimir Putin.

Moscow. April 12. INTERFAX.RU — Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia will not follow the example of Kazakhstan and will not revoke the citizenship of Russians who joined terrorist organizations because the deprivation of citizenship is prohibited by the Constitution, but the authorities may be able to cancel the decision, which formed the basis for granting Russian citizenship.

“In accordance with the Russian Constitution, we deprive anyone of citizenship can’t. But we can cancel the relevant decisions, which served as the basis for obtaining Russian citizenship. We will consult with our lawyers, and I think, such decisions will be made in the near future”, — Putin said in an interview with the international broadcasting company “Mir”, published on Wednesday.

It became known yesterday that the law allows you to revoke the citizenship of members of terrorist organizations, is being developed in Kazakhstan

“This is a necessary measure. (…) First, you need to take such measures that the people did not join the ranks of the terrorists. We tried to carry out preventive work with those who returned from ISIS (the terrorist organization “Islamic state” banned in Russia and Kazakhstan), but it yielded no results. It was therefore decided to close them the way home”, — said the Kazakhstani leader Nursultan Nazarbayev.
