Deportation from Belarus of the leader of the Russian parliamentary faction “Union of right-wing forces” Boris Nemtsov “has never been applied in practice. He was simply denied entrance to the country’s territory”. This is said in the letter of deputy prosecutor general of Belarus, which he forwarded to the country’s Cabinet of Ministers in response to Nemtsov’s plea to recognize his October 23, 2002 deportation from Belarus as arbitrary.
On Saturday the United Civil Party’s press-center informed IA “Rosbalt” that the government notified Nemtsov’s representative in Minsk Evgeny Lobanovich about that reply ahead of Vladimir Putin’s official visit to Belarus.
Deputy prosecutor general of Belarus considers Nemtsov’s complaint illegitimate. “Mass media published conversation between Nemtsov and Lebedko, which shows that the leader of the Union of right-wing forces impedes integration processes between the two states on the mutually acceptable conditions, as well as voices public statements, which endanger the sovereignty of the Republic of Belarus, - claim representatives of the Belarusian procuracy: Moreover, Belarusian KGB possesses data about the illegal funding by Nemtsov of certain political organizations of Belarus, which are seeking to destabilize the public-political situation in the country”.
