20,000 Serbs from Kosovo ask Russia for citizenship

About 20,000 Serbs from Kosovo are seeking Russian citizenship because Serbia is incapable of protecting their human rights which are routinely violated by the Albanian separatists that are supported by NATO and Washington.
An official request for Russian citizenship was filed with the authorities of Russia and Russia’s ambassador to Serbia, Aleksandar Konuzin has confirmed this.
Speaking at the airport in Nis, where Russia has a military based for humanitarian purposes, Konuzin said that the citizenship request is “very serious matter” and that it will be looked at.
“We have laws that specify how to get Russian citizenship. When so many people ask for it, that gets a political dimension,” Konuzin was quoted as saying and translated here freely.
Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said that Russia understands this massive request and says that Russia will seriously look at it.
Belgrade paper Blic says that Russian ambassador to NATO, Dimity Rogozin, said that these Serbs should be repatriated east of the Urals in Siberia.
