He stated this at a meeting of the interdepartmental commission of the Security Council on improving the state migration policy.

“The new measures should more carefully control the influx of migrants into the country, so that it would be easier to get all the necessary information about every foreigner who crossed the border, is going to live, work in our country,” TASS quotes him.

Medvedev stressed that modern digital technologies "should help improve this work, they must be used in every possible way."

In February, Medvedev said that a shadow business in the field of migration has been established in the country.
