According to him, Russia is constantly in contact with other countries on this issue. As Gorin noted, while borders were opened only within the European Union, external borders will gradually open on July 1, but Russia is not on this list.
“Probably some more time will pass, according to airline estimates, for example, this can happen in the third quarter, but it will be August or September - no one, alas, knows. There is information that, perhaps, flights to the CIS will be opened first, ”said the vice president of ATOR.
He explained that there were natural recommendations and that embassies were needed.
“Today we received information that in late June - early July, already part of the embassies plan, if there is a favorable epidemiological situation, to open documents through visa centers, but we still can’t say the exact start dates for international travel,” Gorin said.
Earlier, the Minister of Transport of Russia, Yevgeny Dietrich, gave a forecast regarding the timing of the restoration of the aviation industry.
