The project works with the Duma of the Commonwealth of Independent States, integration into Eurasia and Prepared by the First Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Relations with Compatriots Konstantin Zatulin.
It is offered in the project that, only Russia living abroad, knowing the Russian language, historically Russia members of the peoples living in the territory and let their descendants be considered “compatriots.” As well as with Russia, “religious, cultural and in favor of legal relations free Those who make a choice, those whose relatives were born or live in the Russian Federation, should be awarded this title.
Under the current legislation, both Russian citizens and those living abroad, as well as those who left the former Soviet republics and their children are considered “compatriots”. Now the Russian language is an important criterion for them.
Milli Assembly International Relations and Member of the Interparliamentary Relations Committee Elman NasirovTuran”He said that, There are six official languages ​​of the United Nations and One of those languages ​​is Russian.
He thinks that, It is no coincidence that such a step was taken at the present time: “Russia-Ukraine against the background of the war of the West to Russia snowStrict sanctions are tightening. At the same time, Russian culture in different countries snowWe are also witnessing inappropriate behavior. That is, these days in Russia political Chekhov’s steps taken by the leadership and What does it have to do with Tolstoy’s works? However, they were also targeted and That’s the wrong thing to do. “
DeputyAccording to him, against the background of all these realities, the Russian authorities want to make such a decision. A member of the committee noted that, This will have no effect on Azerbaijan: “First of all, the state language in Azerbaijan is Azerbaijani. On the other hand, we are a multicultural, multi-confessional state and here each denomination can speak its own language. There are Russian-language schools in Azerbaijan and This should be assessed as a result of Azerbaijan’s multicultural policy.
Political Commentator Azer Gasimli also told RFE / RL that, Any accepted within the Russian Federation the law applies only to Russia: “Living in another country, even Russian by nationality and or the activities of Russian-speaking persons, the rights of which belong to the country of citizenship and It has nothing to do with Russia. “
But the expert reminded that, There are international laws on all countries: “To him according to Even if Russia adopts that law, international law is on it and We need to act accordingly. “
According to him according to, Russia does not fulfill its international obligations: “The war in Ukraine shows this. She according to By accepting this project, the Russian government inevitably opens its arms to pursue an expansionist policy.
However, according to Gasimli, even if they do not accept this bill, the Russian government is open: “They do not consider local or foreign laws.”
The political scientist noted that, The main problem may be for a large number of compact Russian-speaking countries.
On February 24 this year, Russia resumed its aggression against Ukraine. Six years ago, Russia annexed part of Ukraine, Crimea. At that time, sanctions were imposed on Russia. West after the new war and A number of countries around the world have expanded sanctions against Russia. But Azerbaijan does not join these sanctions.
