“If a person, in this case a press secretary, publicly announces that we do not obey the official authorities, we are declaring a campaign against Kiev and so on, while he is a citizen of a foreign state, then the state, represented by the special services, has a very simple tool, this is called deportation,” Leshchenko announced.
Skoropadsky admitted that if deported, he faces imprisonment in Russia.
"Those. sit, be silent and be happy with everything, or go back to Russia, where for the fight against the Yanukovych regime, for calls for the overthrow of Putin, for the creation of the Committee for the Release of Political Prisoners, I will get 20 years in prison for the front,” admitted the head of the PS press service.
“I have already been threatened with deportation for fighting the regime. Only this happened under a different president. His last name was Yanukovych,” Skoropadsky recalls Poroshenko’s weak-willed predecessor.
