The State Migration Service of Ukraine, based on information from the Security Service of Ukraine, revoked a permanent residence permit in the country for a Belarusian citizen who married foreigners from "migration risk" countries and thus helped them to legalize, Radiyo Svaboda has learned.
The journalists learned from sources in the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine that the Belarusian woman was recognized as a threat to the national security of Ukraine. She has passed all stages of judicial appeal against the decision of the migration service, but the court of last instance recognized all the rulings adopted by the court of first instance as legal. Now she must leave Ukraine, although her Belarusian passport expired in 2023.
The Belarusian woman applied for an immigration permit in 2018, according to the law, because she had been married to a Ukrainian citizen for more than two years. In 2019, she received such a permit, and on its basis in 2020 - and a permanent residence permit in Ukraine.
According to the State Register of Civil Status Acts, in August 2020, she married a Nigerian citizen, who on the basis of this marriage also received a permit for immigration and permanent residence in Ukraine. In January 2021 - to a citizen of Uzbekistan, in May 2021 - to another citizen of Nigeria, and in January 2022 - also to a Nigerian.
All marriages lasted 5-6 months and were dissolved after the spouses of the Belarusian woman received permanent legalization in Ukraine. Three of her former spouses left Ukraine after receiving the necessary documents, and one still remains on Ukrainian territory.
One of the court rulings in the case of the Belarusian woman noted that the Migration Service deprived her of the right to permanently live in Ukraine on the basis of "operational information", according to which she was "involved in the organization and operation of a channel of illegal immigration of natives of the so-called 'migration risk' countries and their further legalization on fictitious grounds on the territory of Ukraine".
The judges came to the conclusion that the Belarusian woman had been deprived of the right to permanently live in Ukraine.
