UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said that visa restrictions against Russians in Europe are “not a very good idea.”
According to him, he hopes that in the near future these visa restrictions will disappear. The lifting of restrictions is possible after the end of the Russian military operation in Ukraine.
“Relations between Russia and the European Union have deteriorated in many aspects since the beginning of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine. I hope that after the end of the war, all these situations will disappear,” Guterres added.
He added that in light of the events in Ukraine, some Russians wished to leave Russia. Therefore, “not allowing them to come to the EU countries is not a good idea.”
