Occupational authorities of #Mariupol announced that anyone who doesn’t apply for #Russia citizenship will be forcibly expelled from their own apartments and deported from the town. Russians claim these people - who lived in Mariupol all their lives - are now “foreigners” and introduced numerous laws that make their lives unbearable:
pensions, healthcare and social benefits are blocked;
employment in blocked (Russians introduced “foreigner employee quotas” targeted at Ukrainians)
anyone critical of occupation or not showing sufficient enthusiasm of Russia has been deported with their families already
#Ukraine authorities do not penalize acceptance of Russian citizenship on the occupied territories if it’s done under duress and in order to survive the occupation, but many people still refuse to apply for it because they feel it’s equivalent of recognising the occupation.
Please keep that in mind next time you hear “east of Ukraine is mostly Russians anyway” - it didn’t happen on its own, but as result of planned depopulation efforts by Imperial Russia and USSR. And now we’re watching it live.
