During a briefing, Ms. Zourabichvili said, “I call on the Security Council to convene and consider the introduction of three-month visas [for Russians].”

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin cancelled the visa regime with Georgia, and the regulation will come into force on May 15th. In addition, he lifted the ban on direct flights to Georgia, which previously applied to Russian airlines.
