So, if from January to June last year residents of the aggressor country received 1. 7 million passports, almost 2. 5 million documents were issued this year. It has become a maximum over the last three years. According to journalists, the peak of the document fell in March - this month foreign passports issued 553 thousand people. This is 36% more than in February. In April and May, the number of documents obtained decreased, but in early summer the figures began to rise again.
Thus, in June the Russians issued another 446 thousand foreign passports. Russian demographer Alexei Raksha explains the increase in the issuance of foreign passports in January and February 2022 with a delayed demand after a period of coronavirus restrictions. However, an expert from the aggressor country says that such a hype in March cannot be explained by the post-core period, because at that time many countries have already closed their aircraft for aircraft from Russia.
According to Raksha, such demand for documents that allow the Russians to go to other countries can be associated with a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine. We will remind, today it became known that Estonia will stop letting Russians. According to the Foreign Minister of the country, sanctions on Russian citizens will come into force for a week. German Chancellor Olaf Scholtz, for his part, stated that he doubted the idea of banning visas to Russian citizens.
