The European Union plans to tighten its visa policy for Russian citizens. By the end of the year, the association intends to publish new regulations that will contain stricter recommendations on issuing visas.
The relevant information is provided by the Politico newspaper with reference to a representative of the European Commission.
It is noted that the EU has decided to tighten its visa policy towards Russians “after many years of pressure” from the member states of the association located along its eastern border.
Earlier, the German television channel NTV reported on Germany’s plans to tighten the rules for issuing Schengen visas to Russians.
