The Foreign Office The travel advisory for Russia has been tightened considering the political situation in the country. Both German citizens and German-Russian dual citizens are “strictly” advised not to enter the country.
The foreign ministry said the decision was taken “due to the continued deterioration of the situation, including frequent and arbitrary arrests”. “Massive, sometimes violent actions by security forces may occur across the country in connection with unauthorized rallies and demonstrations.”
So far the Foreign Office… travel Not recommended for Russia, new with the word “urgent”. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine two years ago, there is also a travel warning for the Russian-administered regions of Belgorod, Kursk, Bryansk, Voronezh, Rostov and Krasnodar, which border Ukraine.
Especially since the start of the war of aggression against Ukraine, the Russian government has taken harsh measures against critics and dissidents in its own country. In the past two and a half weeks alone, hundreds of people have been arrested for wanting to lay flowers at the memorial to Kremlin dissident Alexei Navalny, who died in a prison camp. It is not possible to freely express opinion especially in relation to war and against the regime.
