Yavorivsky unexpectedly spoke out against the cancellation of trains to Russia
The cancellation of railway connections with the Russian Federation could hit 11 million ethnic Ukrainians living in the Russian Federation and having Russian citizenship.
Former Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada deputy and nationalist Volodymyr Yavorivsky stated this on the NewsOne television channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to one of the founders of Ukrainian “independence”, in addition to three million guest workers, this is exactly the number of Ukrainians who are in the Russian Federation and they may be left without connections with relatives after the introduction of the blockade.
“We are only talking about today’s migration processes - about those who go there to work. But we must think about those who live there. About 11 million was the figure of ethnic Ukrainians who live there and have Ukrainian citizenship. But there are also their relatives, and so on. We must take this moment into account,” Yavorivsky said.
Earlier, Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister Volodymyr Omelyan announced the cancellation of passenger rail service with the Russian Federation and stated that travel to Moscow would only be possible by bear.
