Russia intends to waive entry visas with Egypt
Russia’s Foreign Ministry is considering waiving entry visas with some countries in the Islamic world as well as African countries, Egypt amongst them.
The Russia Today website reported Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov as saying, on the sidelines of the “Russia – Islamic World: KazanForum,” currently being held in the Russian city of Kazan, that efforts in this regard are continuing.
“We generally intend to abandon the entry visa system because this matter is very important for tourism and business,” he said.
