It was in a bid to control the Russian population under the excuse that it was a  measure that would prevent Russian state secretes from being leaked abroad.

A colonel from the Federal Security Service  (FSB) of the Russian Federation by the name of Alexander Poteyev had earlier defected to the U.S. and revealed identities of a network of Russian spies in U.S. and Britain. After this, no FSB employee was allowed out of the country unless they required urgent medical attention that was not available in Russia at the time.

This exit ban was also extended to ordinary Russian citizens with the exception of highly skilled professionals who were allowed to leave the country to work on projects abroad.

Answer:

The Norths perspective- This book had a powerful effect on the north by getting the public and political peoples opinion against slavery. It is a sentimental story about a slave named and the effects that slavery have on his family.

The Souths perspective- The South hated the published book Uncle Tom's Cabin due to the fact that it exposed what the slaves had really endured.

This pulled the nations apart because the North would use the book to persuade other people to take action againts the south and help the slaves.

Hope this helped sorry if its a lot.
