According to the expert, this is "a demonstration of yet another international lawlessness."

“Estonia itself violates the principles of freedom of movement within the EU, especially those Schengen visas that were issued directly in this country.

In fact, a situation is being created in which the presence of a Russian passport a priori deprives a person of the possibility of elementary freedoms, such as movement within the territory of the EU countries, while on the basis of those documents that worked until recently, ”said Danyuk.

In his opinion, such a decision should be followed, for example, by "a break in economic chains and ties."

“Because despite the fact that Estonia is part of the EU, the Russian market and Russian capital play a very important role for it.

Such decisions cannot be left without consequences, ”concluded the interlocutor of RT.

Earlier it became known that the Estonian Foreign Ministry announced that the country was closing the borders for Russian citizens with Schengen visas issued by the republic.
