Visa-free travel between Russia and Turkey goes into effect starting today, said Turkish Foreign Ministry in aThe measure is valid on a reciprocal basis for official and service passport holders, as well as for international transport drivers, the statement said."The agreement on visa exemption signed on May 12, 2010 was partially re-enacted as of August 7, 2019. We expect the full implementation of the agreement," added the statement.
Russia had suspended the visa-free regime in late 2015 amid tensions over the downing of a Russian jet along the Turkish-Syrian border. This July, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the Foreign Ministry to send a notification to Turkish officials about this partial restoration of visa-free travel.
"The Russian move allowing visa-free travel for Turkish citizens is a result of warm relations and dialogue," Turkish President Erdogan said, hailing Russia's decision.
