Russia to study Kazakh experience of depriving terrorists of citizenship

Russia may use Kazakhstan's experience in introducing the institution of citizenship deprivation for terrorism, the Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Vladimir Vasiliev said.

"The St. Petersburg terrorist attack was committed, in fact, by citizen of the CSTO member state. He obtained our citizenship. By the way, we are now using your experience (Kazakh - VK.). We raised the issue that we will deprive people of the second citizenship, who obtained citizenship and then committed such a serious crime. We use each other's experience," Vasiliev said at the international round table titled 'The role of parliaments in legislative support of cooperation and regional security in Central Asia'.
