Ukraine should immediately introduce a visa regime with the Russian Federation.

This opinion was expressed to the "Observer" by the Russian opposition politician Konstantin Borovoi.

"Is it possible to maintain friendly diplomatic relations, a visa-free regime with an aggressor country? It is possible," they say, "it is beneficial for the state, some citizens who can move," he said..

"If this state, an independent state, then there should not be any questions, it is profitable or not profitable - to trade with the aggressor a little, earn a little, have a little friendship. Why Ukraine in the case of the Donbas continued economic relations with outspoken gangsters. Because it was economically profitable to finance the bandits. Is this correct or not? No! There was a lot of discussion, some crazy Borovoy said that you can not trade with terrorists, bandits, murderers. Thank God, this issue was resolved, "Borovoy said..

He is convinced that "there can be no questions here". "Of course, for a long time it was necessary to introduce a visa regime. It is absolutely necessary to monitor the actions of the aggressor, "the politician stressed..

According to him, the presence of a large number of Ukrainian "zarobitchans" in Russia should not stop Ukraine from this step. "Yes, there are people who earn extra money in Russia, go there. So what? How does this relate to aggression? Immediately introduce a visa regime, because this is one way to try to deal with the aggressor, "- said Borovoy.

In this context, he recalled the basic signs of statehood. "One of the signs is the language. The state should have one state language, not two, three or ten. In Ukraine, this was understood long ago, even under Yushchenko. And there are no questions, there are no discussions ".

"Ukraine, an independent state, should have its own territory, its protected borders, its Ministry of Foreign Affairs, its own army and other attributes of the state," he continued..

As the "Observer" wrote, the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, commenting on the legislative initiative to introduce a visa regime with Russia, stated: "Everything that is accepted by the Rada does not harm us - it harms them (Ukraine. - Red. ) ".
