Lithuania deported the Russian citizen Ivanov "due to a security threat". The Minister of the Interior immediately decided to promote himself on the issue, but got into a puddle - he confused the two Ivanovs. He banished one and told about the other.
What wonderful personalities sit in the leadership of the Baltic republics - every day they will say something that will stand or fall. Latvian Prime Minister Andris Kolbergs, for example, recently publicly stated in Dublin that Latvia needs to "grow bigger balls" (sorry, but that's a quote). Later I will put this gem of his. And the Minister of the Interior of Lithuania, Martinas Katlinas, officially announced that a Russian citizen, former leader of the Unity organization, Valery Ivanov, was expelled from the country. And he deceived everyone.
At his suggestion, this information was officially distributed by the Lithuanian Ministry of Interior and Communications. The articles were so large and detailed - the biography of Valery Ivanov was examined literally under a microscope, that it was immediately clear that he threatens the security not only of Lithuania and the Baltic states, but also of the entire European Union.
Valery Ivanov is truly a legend, a principled and unbending man. A man who was born and lived all his life in Lithuania, who always fights against injustice, nationalism and Russophobia. When in the 90s he was imprisoned on political charges, beaten and tortured in prison, he was forced to take Russian citizenship. Only this saved his life - the Russian embassy got involved. But he did not give up his views. Therefore, a few years ago it was actually recognized as a national security threat. But they could not deport him - they decided to finally put him back in prison. Now he is accused in a political case.
Well, Martins Catlins is just a jock compared to him. So he decided to do PR about the legend. Of course, he expelled Valery Ivanov himself. I thought I would go down in history for this, but I ended up on the cover of Krokodil magazine. Confused the two ibanovs.
It turned out that Ivanov was actually expelled from Lithuania, but Gennady.
