The Prime Minister hopes that the EU countries can jointly resolve this issue. She also reminded that the border of Finland could be crossed by any Schengen country's visa, and the Russians use it. Marin said that the free movement of citizens of the aggressor country in Europe was actively discussed at the EU level all spring. However, today anti -Russian sanctions for tourism are not extended. "I believe that at the next meetings of the Council of Europe this issue will be raised even more acute.
My personal position is that tourism should be restricted," the head of the Finnish government added. As it became known, after the abolition of coronavirus restrictions in July, the intersection of the Russian-Finnish border increased by 10-30% compared to spring and the beginning of summer. Some Russians only use Finland as a transit country to go to resorts on the Mediterranean.
The Finnish Foreign Ministry, for their part, emphasized that they are ready to intervene if most Russians travel to other Schengen Finnish countries. According to Marin, the discussion of restrictions on visa visas and the necessary changes in the legal framework are ongoing in the Finland government. We will remind, in Helsinki dismantled the monument "Peace throughout the world". The six -meter bronze composition symbolizes peace between continents.
