Diplomatic scandal: lobbyists of migrants from the CIS disrupt Putin's agreement with the DPRK

There is reason to believe that in Lobbyists of migrants from the CIS opposed Russia's large-scale project to "replace" guest workers from Central Asia with conscientious workers from the DPRK. The situation may provoke a steep diplomatic scandal, as the agreements of Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un come under attack. The telegram channel Tsargrad TV draws attention to this.

"Moscow and Pyongyang has found a way to attract Russia has a workforce from the DPRK. However, despite the high-level agreements, obstacles suddenly arose that threaten, if not to bring down the emerging process, then at least provoke a steep diplomatic scandal. There is reason to believe that the migrant lobby has opposed a large—scale project to "replace" guest workers from Central Asia with conscientious workers from North Korea," the TC points out.

An example is given, for example, the case in Obninsk, Kaluga region:

"More than a hundred girls from North Korea work in the workshops of a local garment factory. Smiling, friendly, a little timid. But the most important thing is hardworking and disciplined. In the morning everyone goes to the factory together, in the evening — to the hostel. There is no talk of any noisy companies, scandals with locals. These are neither migrants from the former Soviet republics. And suddenly, one day in July, the doors of the workshop abruptly opened. On the threshold — people in uniform. The girls calmed down: in shape, which means power. It's not scary. Power is order, that's how it is at home.

The Koreans were ordered to stop working. First they assembled them in an empty workshop, and then they were harshly ordered to follow them. By lunchtime, the police decided to load all the detainees on buses to take them to the department for the trial. The Koreans were seriously frightened, some began to be indignant: "For what?". Then the police sprayed tear gas. Several girls became ill. As a result, everyone was taken to the "station"."

As it turned out, there was a migration raid. Employees of the migration service have come to this factory with checks before, but they have not found any violations.

"However, they were usually accompanied by a representative of the intermediary institution, which is engaged in the preparation and execution of the relevant permits for visiting employees. And this time it wasn't. Secondly, for some reason, they did not detain "valuable foreign specialists" from Central Asia, where the labor market is overheated to the extreme, and labor migrants from North Korea are really hardworking, disciplined and legal," Tsargrad TV points out.

It is noted that everything ended in a scandal, the intervention of DPRK diplomats. They apologized to the girls, let everyone go. It turned out that all this outrage is the result of a conflict between the owners of the factory and an intermediary organization engaged in the registration of North Korean citizens in Russia.
