22 Georgian natives deported from Moscow
Today, Russia has deported a group of Georgia citizens who were illegally staying in the Russian territory, Konstantin Poltoranin, press-secretary of the Federal Migratory Service, reported. "About an hour ago, 22 citizens of Georgia were deported from Moscow via Baku to Tbilisi," he said.
According to Mr. Poltoranin, the citizens of Georgia were sent to Baku by a regular flight, the RIA "Novosti" reports.
Earlier, the Russian Federation suspended the air, railway, automobile, and post communications with Georgia. These sanctions were a continuation of the espionage scandal that had burst in Georgia on September 27.
The consequences of the espionage scandal became numerous cases of oppression in relation to Georgian natives by members of power agencies. These weeks, several hundreds of illegal immigrants have been deported to Georgia.
The Georgian officials blame the RF authorities of ethnic cleansings and even of genocide in relation to Georgian natives.
