The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine is ready to implement the introduction of a visa regime from the Russian Federation, in case of an appropriate decision.

This is the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Pavel Klimkin said on the air of the TV channel "112 Ukraine".

"I believe that even the introduction of a visa regime in the context of control of who arrives from Russia is not enough for us. We need to introduce biometric passports for this, but then also control those who come, "the minister said..

According to him, the issue of introducing a visa regime with Russia needs a clear approach and a vision of what will happen next.

"My answer is definitely yes. But this is a question that must be solved both in time and in terms of these procedures, on the basis of a clear approach and understanding of how Russia will try to interrupt this, and of our citizens to be drawn into compulsory Russian citizenship. This must be clearly prevented, "Klimkin summarized.

Recall, on the eve of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, said that Moscow is ready to introduce a visa regime with Ukraine in response to similar actions in Kiev.

As reported by the "Observer", the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Foreign Affairs Anna Hopko said that she does not consider the visa regime with Russia effective to counter the penetration of Russian agents.
