(ANSA) – BRUSSELS, AUGUST 22 – “A ban on all Russians entering the country is not a good idea”. This was stated by the High Representative for EU foreign policy Josep Borrell during a conference in Spain. “We have to be more selective”. “We obviously mustn’t open the door to the oligarchs…we have to block these Russians from entering,” Borrell said. “But there are many Russians who want to flee the country because they don’t want to live in this situation.” More than 300,000 Russians have fled their country since Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine nearly six months ago, Borrell said. “Shall we shut the door on these Russians? I don’t think that’s a good idea,” he added. (HAND).
