“As part of countering unprecedented threats to national security, sovereignty and territorial integrity of our state, I proposed that the Cabinet of Ministers work on the issue of revising the regime for the entry of Russian citizens into the territory of Ukraine,” Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said in a statement.

“Safety is a priority today. Against the backdrop of a full-scale war that Russia started, it is necessary to strengthen the control regime over the entry of Russian citizens into the territory of Ukraine. There is such a request from both society and the authorities. And this is very important,” wrote the head of the office of the Ukrainian president, Andriy Ermak.

The visa-free regime between Russia and Ukraine continued to operate even after the annexation of Crimea and the outbreak of a military conflict in the Donbass.

Russians could enter Ukraine for 90 days within 180 days. It was possible to enter Ukraine in the presence of a passport with a validity period longer than the end of the trip.

Since 2014, the issue of introducing visas for Russians has been periodically raised, but the matter never came to a vote.

Opponents of this idea pointed out that the possible introduction of visas for Russians would lead to the introduction of visas for Ukrainians, including Ukrainian labor immigrants in Russia in return.
