Baku – APA. Latvia has rejected a residency request by Moscow’s former mayor Yury Luzhkov, who was fired from his job by the Kremlin last year, APA reports quoting “The Voice of Americaâ€.
Instead, Latvia placed the once-powerful Russian politician on a “blacklist†of people who are not welcome to live in the Baltic state.
Latvian Interior Minister Linda Murniece said Luzhkov did not deserve to live in Latvia given his negative attitude toward the country during his time in office.
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev dismissed Luzhkov in September 2010, citing what he said were the politician’s questionable policies and negligence.
