By the way, Valery Leontiev, who settled in Miami, receives a pension of 57 thousand rubles. However, the singer does not throw mud at Russia, like his colleague. Andrei Aleshkin noted that the pension that artists receive is well-deserved in accordance with the current legislation. However, they may lose it.
“This is possible when the legislation changes. In this case, it is possible to change the procedure for calculating pensions or even recognize that people who live abroad for more than six months lose their residency. As a result, they may lose bonuses and payments, including pensions. But, I emphasize that for this it is necessary to make changes to the current legislation, ”the star lawyer explained.
The human rights activist said that today, according to Russian laws, a person is not limited in movement and place of residence. “This does not exclude the payments that are due to him by law. But personally, I believe that if a person does not live in Russia for a long time, then his right to receive any social benefits is leveled. If he does not live in Russia, then he does not need these benefits, ”Aleshkin said.
Formerly lawyer commented on the alleged sex change by the scandalous showman Gauguin Solntsev. Aleshkin believes that this is most likely just a PR move to attract attention.
