The representative of the European Commission on migration issues, Markus Lammerth, stated that a proposal to tighten visa issuance to Russians will be presented in 2027. This is reported by Euronews. The appeal came from the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Iceland, and Norway. The countries are concerned that France, Italy, and Spain continue to accept Russian tourists. These countries have become the main destinations for Russians — they issued more than 400,000 visas.
Let us remind you that Finland stopped recognizing old-style Russian passports from June 1, 2026.
