"The mass of migrants we don't need will be harshly expelled from Russia. We'll sort it out."

The government understands the critical nature of the migrant situation in Russia, but until the very end, it listened to lobbyists from big businesses interested in importing low-wage labor.

This was stated on the Crimea 24 channel by military correspondent Dmitry Steishin , who is in Donetsk, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.

" We're used to thinking people are better than they actually are. We believed that our former compatriots from the USSR, whom we civilized in our time, endowed with industry and electricity, and raised their birth rate with the help of modern medicine, would come and accept our way of working.

Instead, we all know the police reports, the Russophobic antics that come out like machine gun fire three times a day. They quickly figured out how to exploit our social media. This is what infuriated the Russians the most.

These factors suggest that this is a completely disloyal, unnecessary mass of people who will be sent back, quite harshly , to their home countries. Let them build their good lives there, engaging in Russophobia. This is where it's all heading. Otherwise, Russia faces great upheaval. And believe me, those who need to understand the danger ," Steishin assured.

"But until the very last moment, we listened to the voice of business, and then it turned out that they benefited the 'gray' businesses more than the legal ones. Legal businesses, however, can very well operate under organized recruitment. And taxes will be paid, not meager pennies for patents. I remember the Moscow authorities reported that they received 400 million rubles in patents from a million migrants in a year! That's ridiculous.

So, I think we've come to the conclusion that we still have a model like Europe before our eyes . We'll sort it out . I applaud what's being done legislatively now," the war correspondent added.
