Vladimir Putin has enacted a decree mandating that Ukrainians residing in regions occupied by Russia must either acquire Russian citizenship or face eviction. The decree specifies that those without legal status in Russia need to comply by September 10, 2025. This directive is part of Russia's broader aim to Russify disputed territories such as Donetsk and Luhansk. Additionally, foreign nationals living in these regions are required to undergo medical checks for drug use and diseases by June 10, 2025, highlighting the regime's efforts to exert control and normalize its presence in the occupied areas.
Ukrainian citizens living in Russian-occupied regions are threatened with eviction unless they obtain Russian citizenship by September 10, 2025, as part of Putin’s decree.
Putin's decree emphasizes the need for Ukrainians in occupied territories to 'regulate their legal status' or face being displaced from their homes.
