“Despite the fact that the EU did not agree to introduce a pan-European visa ban, an agreement was reached that Estonia and other countries can independently restrict the entry of Russian citizens,” RIA Novosti quotes Reinsalu.
He also advocated the introduction of a pan-European visa ban for Russians.
Earlier, the head of diplomacy of the European Union, Josep Borrell, said that the foreign ministers of 27 EU countries decided to freeze the visa facilitation agreement with Russia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that Moscow reserves the right to retaliate in connection with the EU decision to suspend the visa facilitation agreement.
As the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov noted, the suspension by the European Union of a facilitated visa regime with Russia will also affect Europeans.
