Lithuania declares more than 1,000 Belarusians and Russians to be national security risks
Lithuania has declared more than a thousand citizens of Russia and Belarus living in the country to be threats to national security and said it is stripping them of their permanent residency permits
EU nations flexing their muscles with dictatorships is always good to see
Let's ask people about their opinion and deport them if we don't like their answer. I'm sure this is not open to abuse whatsoever. In fact, let's expand this idea such that only the most loyal citizens remain. Do you dislike the ruling party? Pack your things, you are now a national security threat.
These are foreign citizens living abroad and the questionnaire wasn't the only factor
Honestly, I don't know what the questions were, but it they said they approve of Russia's war or something of the like, it's justified
publish their names and pics so we can throw the orcs out!
fuck ruZZia
A democracy must follow rule of law and protect everyone's constitutional rights. Publishing the names of those people means inviting others to commit a lynching, which goes against the foundations of democracy and sets us on the path to turn our countries into sad reflections of what Russia currently is.
If a country's body of home affairs notices that some people might be likely to commit particularly worrisome crimes, it is natural for them to put them under investigation, but they shouldn't be punished unless they actually commit crimes. We don't want to be Russia.
they are a security risk in the first place as that democracy just said. there should be freedom to ask for the release of their names for sure. fuck russia anytime.
I always wondered how the US could be so cruel to lock up 120.000 people into camps during WW2, for simply having Japanese descent. I thought we had outgrown such overt bigotry as a species. But it turns out the war machine whips even the most respectable people into a xenophobic frenzy.
These are not Lithuanians of russian descent. They are specifically foreign citizens living in Lithuania.
Yes, it has kom time for an endsolution to the ruzzia qwestion, nicht wahr?
