Uzbek citizens in Russia urged not to participate in unauthorized public events

The Agency for External Labor Migration urged citizens of Uzbekistan not to participate in public events and avoid mass gatherings.

Various reports are circulating on the Internet that public demonstrations are planned in Russia that are not officially sanctioned by the state. 

In this regard, the Agency for External Labor Migration asks citizens of Uzbekistan who are in the country not to participate in such public events, to comply with the laws of the Russian Federation and not to visit crowded places. 

“Participation in such unauthorized events may entail prosecution or forced expulsion of foreign citizens from the country in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation,” the Agency emphasized. 

It should be recalled that today, September 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilization. After that, messages began to appear on social networks calling for participation in protests against the mobilization.
