Croatia temporarily lifts visas for Russians

Croatia announced that it would lift its visa regime with Russia for May-November 2011. The move is an attempt to boost tourism and cultural ties.

Moldovan citizens still need a visa for Croatia, although they can receive one for free.

There seems to be a competition between Russia and countries from the Eastern Partnership in terms of getting rid of visa regimes for European countries.

Previously, Estonian officials said that announcements by Italian politicians about attempts to scrap the visa regime with Russia would be unreasonable before granting visa-free travel to Eastern Partnership countries.
