The head of the village of Lazurnoye in the occupied part of the Kherson region, Oleksandr Dudka, said that residents of the village who did not receive a Russian passport would not be given medicines purchased with funds from the Russian budget. The Russian telegram channel Sirena drew attention to the response.

First of all, this applies to insulin, which have already felt for themselves how to be a citizen of another country. The same applies to the issuance of humanitarian aid,” Dudka said in a video posted on August 10.
The head of the occupation administration also lashed out at the Ukrainians, whose children stopped attending schools after the capture of Lazurne by Russian troops.
These parents will be brought to administrative responsibility, and then to criminal responsibility. And then we will put them on buses, take them to the demarcation line and send them to your Ukrainian schools, where you will study. You will learn your native language if you disdain Russian,” he said.
Dudka also called those who disagree with the annexation “pochekuns” and urged them to “pack up their things and prepare to leave.”
An official document has already been released stating that medicines purchased from the Russian budget will not be issued to foreign citizens, that is, citizens of Ukraine. First of all, this applies to insulin, which have already experienced for themselves how to be a citizen of another country. The same applies to the issuance of humanitarian aid and other issues of those people who have not currently issued a Russian passport, – proclaims a collaborator from the occupied village of Lazurne in the Kherson region Alexander Dudka.
He also threatens the parents of children who do not go to schools organized by the occupiers.
If you are not satisfied with the laws of Russia, please pack your things and get ready to leave. So that you can safely leave while there is an opportunity. It will be more difficult further, – Dudka says.
Sirena notes that this is not the first time Dudka has made such threats. So, in June 2023, he promised that without Russian passports, “in some two or three weeks, people will not be able to receive humanitarian aid, get a job, receive pensions.”
In August 2023, researchers from Yale University published a report on the “forced passportization” of residents of the annexed territories of Ukraine. According to the report, Russian authorities are forcing Ukrainians to obtain Russian passports, including through threats, intimidation, and restrictions on access to humanitarian aid and basic necessities.
