A proposed law would restrict non-Russian residents from openly opposing the government, criticizing Russia's communist history or subverting traditional values. Foreign nationals would be required to sign an agreement prohibiting "hindering the activities of public authorities of the Russian Federation [or] discrediting in any form the foreign and domestic state policy of the Russian Federation, public authorities and their officials," according to translations from The Moscow Times.
