The European Union announced on Friday that it will stop issuing multiple-entry visas to Russians, in an attempt to pressure Moscow over the war in Ukraine. This decision is another attempt by the EU to put pressure on Moscow due to the conflict in Ukraine. Previously, the EU had already imposed various sanctions and restrictions on Russia, but this measure directly affects citizens wishing to visit the member states. Analysts believe that this step could cause a negative reaction in Russia and lead to retaliatory measures from Moscow.
