To this end, the russian government has initiated a large-scale resettlement of a significant number of "people of different nationalities, mostly low-income groups", from outermost regions of russia.
"The migrants from russia in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine are strongly supported by the local russian occupation administrations, which provide immediate accommodation for the families of the newcomers, employment, affordable (soft) loans for housing, business development, etc.", the statement says.
At the same time, local residents of the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine, especially those suspected of pro-Ukrainian position, continue to be deported to russia under various pretexts.
According to Maliar, in such a way, the enemy seeks to destroy Ukrainian statehood and the national identity of society in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.
Background. As a reminder, Ukrainians who have been deported to russia are being forced to go to war against Ukraine.
