The head of the delegation, the chairman of the Russian-Finnish Friendship Association, Darya Skippari-Smirnova, offered to organize a visa-free regime for the Finns when traveling to the Crimean peninsula and to establish direct flights from Helsinki, reports RIA News.

The Finnish delegation proposed to introduce a visa-free regime with the Crimea




The delegation from Finland is in Crimea for the first time after its entry into the Russian Federation. The seven-day visit (before March 20) is designed to establish cultural and friendly ties.

We intend to propose to the head of the republic, if this issue is in his competence, to organize a visa-free regime for the Finns and to open direct flights from Helsinki to the Crimea. We have already communicated with one of the Finnish airlines, which allows for such a possibility
Skipari-Smirnova told the agency.

She complained that the road to the Crimea was difficult and long.

It takes a very long time to get here, due to the lack of direct flights,
noted the head of the delegation.

According to her, the Finnish tourists have yet to open the Crimean resorts.

You can go on holiday to Italy, and you can in the Crimea. Here the climate is also comfortable, but much cheaper. Although we noticed that the Crimean prices are higher than, for example, in St. Petersburg,
added Skippari-Smirnova.

She also said that she plans to open a Finnish cultural center in Crimea.

        I didn’t even suspect that in Russia there were millions of people who were not traveling abroad, or whatever it was. Look at different sites, people write, I’ll go to the Crimea with pleasure when the bridge is opened. Probably they were all banned from leaving, or you yap. One out of two.

                The fact that they have a branch in Finland is good. That they were able to organize the arrival of the Finnish delegation in Crimea is wonderful. The fact that they organize direct air traffic bypassing sanctions is WRONG! They are the force that will tell the finals the truth, but not the one that will change Europe.

        I can also:
        "I suggest that the mayor of Innsbruck, on behalf of the chairman of the Council of the house located in Novosibirsk, make visa-free travel for residents of the house, we’ll come to ski with you, we’re good in Sheregesh, but your climate is cheaper and softer”

          It also clearly states - visa-free travel for the Finns. Our government can easily introduce visa-free travel for all people visiting Crimea. A visa is placed on the border and gives the right to move within the peninsula.

        Each resort has its own attractive and not so special features. Someone will go to Turkey, and someone to the Crimea. In Crimea, by the way, in summer, prices should be lower. Since the bridge across the Kerch Strait should open half a year earlier, i.e. by June. The cost of delivering goods to the Crimea will decrease significantly.

              There is. Was in the last century with a relative in the Sevastopol factory of champagne wines. On the street + 30g, in the skerries of the plant + 5g. We are in t-shirts. My relative weighing under 100 kg with a fair layer of fat is “hob sho” for him, and I'm skinny, low fat and go to the “shake”. There was only one thought after the first beaker - "to freedom, to the pampas." But nutmeg champagne is, I tell you, THING. All the time I try to find him in the boutiques of Peter, but to no avail. If you find it, be sure to try it, you will not lose. bully

    This proposal is a neat "race" on the independence of the Crimea from Russia.
    Probably it became clear to Western leaders that Russia would simply return nothing to anyone.
    We decided to try to come from this side - they say the Crimea will be independent in general, neither Ukraine nor Russia will belong.
    Caution so. at the light blow level, examine the soil.

The famous "Monument to the Scuttled Ships" was created according to the project of the sculptor Academician A. G. Adamson, a Russian and Estonian sculptor and painter. He also created a monument to the battleship "Mermaid". located in Kadriorg Park (Tallinn) [media = https: //ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/П
