Wouldn't surprise me if Russians need a Visa just to go from Town to Town or Town to City within Russia. Likely just old Stalin or Lenin Policies from the Communist Days they never got rid of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame you haven't learned from this historic moment. Hey Vlad, LET OUR LESBIANS GO! You won't stop them. You CAN'T stop them. They will keep coming and coming, multiplied exponentially by intelligent rock stars, writers, poets, artists, philosophers, activists, and challengers. And I think I know a particular young gay woman who could kick your ass. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The national passport is a digest of administrative information about the individual. Russian nationals can move freely within borders while foreign tourists are expected to register at their place of residence upon arrival. I spent three weeks illegally without knowing it, during my last stay. But even the police did not bother me when I got control on my scooter🛵. And I crossed Russia from North to South and back to see the concert without having trouble at the airports. We are far from the KGB era, thankfully.

I have no desire to act against this government, nor against mine, which is not much better and I am sure that yours is not better on your island. I am cautious and in addition I am lucky to be part of the middle class and I would have nothing to gain by any claim. Besides, I was only transmitting information without political intention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
