“According to the information I have, about 80 citizens of the Russian Federation have submitted information to obtain a visa. However, none of them have received a visa yet, none of them could actually cross the border if they had a visa,” said Demchenko.
Let’s add
According to Demchenko, Ukrainian specialists carefully check Russians who want to enter Ukraine. Now this procedure is longer than at border checkpoints.
The requirements for the organization of work on the issuance of visas for entry into Ukraine and transit through its territory are established in accordance with the rules of visa issuance. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs deals with this issue.
The specified requirements establish the form of the visa questionnaire, as well as the procedure for informational interaction of the state bodies of Ukraine when issuing visas.
Visa can be transit, short-term and long-term.
As First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Yevhenii Yenin noted, the received visa will not guarantee crossing the border.
