Russian border guards eliminate checkpoints on the administrative border with the annexed Crimea, set up before the checkpoints of the Russian Federation.

This information was confirmed to the "Ukrainian Truth" by the press secretary of the State Border Service of Ukraine Oleg Slobodyan.

He noted that the Russians are removing roadblocks located in close proximity to the administrative border with mainland Ukraine, but the checkpoint "on the contrary reinforce".

According to Slobodyan, Kalanchak and Chaplink made it back at the beginning of the year, almost a month ago, and opposite Chongar, the checkpoint was liquidated in recent days - on Monday.

In fact, these are "pre-check" posts, which first performed a protective function.

Now the Russians leave video surveillance instead.

"They bring the security system to the standards that they have in other parts of the border," - suggested the press secretary of the Ukrainian border service.

Slobodian noted that there are roadblocks from the Ukrainian side. "We do not remove them," he said..
