Adygs from Turkey, wishing to return, should not work well
23.8.2009
Adygs from Turkey, owners of the green passports handed out there for their long-term honest work, are not necessary to Russia. They who had arrived to Adygeya for registration of Russian citizenship, were sent back to return with the ordinary - dark blue - passports.
“It is absurd, - one of the repatriates commented for NatPress, - some countries for such citizens of Turkey stated the visa-free mode. Here everything is on the contrary”. As he said, in the organized group from 27 Adygs, arrived to the republic to start the procedure of citizenship reception, there had been appeared three persons with green passports. They had to return to Turkey practically with nothing and if thy arrived again, they should start everything with the beginning.
Aiub Hatukay who had independently arrived to Maykop before the mentioned group, faced such problem, too. The OVIR accepted his documents, started his registration, and now refuses to seal visas because of the color of his passport. Aiub Hatukay had had received the green passport for his success in teaching affairs.
As they explained for NatPress in the House of Adygeya government, the problem of the green passports really exists. And it was born not in the republican cabinets, and by the Government of Russian Federation. “We have eliminated some other obstacles, - the explained us, - but we could not manage with this one”.
The question on what basis the green passports are rejected, we were told that they “have a special status”, that is, they assimilate to departmental passports. On the remark that they are not, they answered: “we can add nothing to that”.
Among the other similar obstacles, they explained to us, for example, there is validity of the passport - already dark blue. If this term was no more than three years the seal in it would not seal. However now it is reduced to a year and a half.
