Rospotrebnadzor (Russian Agency for Health and Consumer Rights) has compiled a list of countries that will be opened for Russian tourists at the first stage of the restoration of international air traffic.

It is noted that the list includes 13 countries of the world: the United Kingdom, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway, Finland, Poland, China, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Mongolia. According to experts of Rospotrebnadzor, these countries meet the criteria of the epidemic situation. The department rejected from the official comments.

Earlier it became known that Russia plans to open international flights in two stages. Employees of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Rospotrebnadzor and the Federal Air Transport Agency should prepare a list of countries.

The Federal Air Transport Agency extended the ban on international flights until August 1. The ban is also valid on the departure of Russians abroad.
