Former Duma deputy Ponomaryov granted residence permit in Ukraine
Former Russian State Duma deputy Ilya Ponomaryov has been granted provisional residence permit in Ukraine.
Ponomaryov posted a picture of his Ukrainian residence permit on Instagram, providing it with the commentary in Ukrainian: "Envy me, friends."
Ponomaryov said earlier in an interview with the Focus publication: "I believe Ukraine is the place where I can be more useful than anywhere else. I am investing in the energy sector here."
The State Duma terminated Ponomaryov's parliamentary mandate by a majority of votes on June 10.
