Russian Spy Anna Chapman Is Stripped Of Uk Citizenship

[Raistlin]

Anna Chapman, one of the Russian spies deported from the United States, has been deprived of her British citizenship, the BBC understands.

She has lost her British citizenship and exclusion is expected to follow, meaning she cannot travel to the UK.

Ms Chapman was among 10 Russians arrested in the US who admitted to being agents for a foreign country.

Last week her lawyer said she would like to come to the UK as she has a UK passport through a previous marriage.

Russia agreed to exchange four US spies for the 10 Russian agents and the swap was carried out in Vienna on 9 July.

Ms Chapman, who is also known as Anya Kushchenko, is the daughter of a Russian diplomat.

Until the Home Office's decision, she had dual Russian-UK nationality.

BBC home affairs correspondent Andy Tighe said Ms Chapman became the best-known of the Russian spy ring after details and photographs from her Facebook entry were picked up by newspapers around the world.

Vienna spy swap

He said her lawyers were handed a letter formally revoking her citizenship and she was told her passport was no longer valid.

It is understood steps are also being taken to permanently exclude Ms Chapman from travelling to the UK in the future, our correspondent said.

Earlier this month, Briton Alex Chapman, 30, from Bournemouth, Dorset, talked to a newspaper about his four-year marriage to the 28-year-old Russian.

He said they had met at a party in London in 2002 and married five months later.

He said she changed dramatically during the marriage, and by the end was having "secretive" meetings with "Russian friends".

Ms Chapman did not seek to conceal her Russian identity when she arrived in New York from Moscow in February 2010, saying she wanted to build up a recruitment agency targeting young professionals in both cities.

But following the Vienna spy swap, a Home Office spokesperson had said they were reviewing Ms Chapman's passport situation

Having seen her photo & assuming that it is not airbrushed, she can spy on me, anytime & vice versa with the emphasis on the "vice"

Without being derogatory , in any way, what on earth could she uncover in the UK which would be of strategic value to Russia?

[Raistlin]

Me...

[Bizarra]

Me...

But you might be of strategic importance in Latvia

You know it makes sense

You walk down a street in any Russian town or city and you will see women just as good looking, if not better.

Be warned though, FSU (Former Soviet Union) women are high maintenance!!! 2 hours to pick an outfit and do hair and make-up for the 100m walk to the shop for the paper!!!

(Been there, done that!!)
