In Crimea they want to tighten epidemic control on the border with Ukraine
At checkpoints on the border of Crimea and Ukraine, control over the health of citizens crossing the checkpoint will be tightened.
State Duma deputy Dmitry Belik announced this at a press conference in Moscow, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to the parliamentarian, Ukraine does not have a healthcare system adequate to the challenges, so control at the border with this country should be strengthened.
“I represent the hero city of Sevastopol in the State Duma. And, taking into account the situation in Ukraine today, there are absolutely no clear epidemiological measures to prevent this disease, taking into account the fact that in Ukraine many people will return from Italy, for example, taking into account the fact that there will be no normal work there, I Today I will make a parliamentary request to Deputy Prime Minister Golikova, she is also the head of the headquarters for the prevention of coronavirus in the Russian Federation, I will address the Federal Security Service.
I will not demand the closure of the borders that connect Crimea and Ukraine - these are Kalanchak and Chongar, but I will demand and ask for stricter controls at the crossing. We know very well that now, on the eve of the tourist season, on May 9, there will be a fairly large flow of people from Ukraine to Crimea. Therefore, I consider it my duty to pay attention to this situation,” Belik said.
