Interior Minister of Ukraine Arsen Avakov has informed that foreigners from the occupied territories will be banned from entering Ukraine due to coronavirus.
“We suggest introducing a 100-percent regime of restriction for foreigners at checkpoints [when leaving the occupied territories]. We suggest allowing Ukrainian citizens registered in the unoccupied territory [to enter the government-controlled territory] to have more control,” Avakov said at the Cabinet’s meeting on Friday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
In addition, he said, separate decisions will be approved regarding the OSCE SMM and the Red Cross representatives who stay in the occupied territories.
Earlier, Avakov reported on 12 cases of coronavirus in the occupied city of Horlivka in Donetsk region.
