HELSINKI, Sept 29 — Finland said today it will bar Russians with Schengen tourist visas from entering the country at midnight following a surge in arrivals after Moscow’s mobilisation order.
Haavisto cited damage to “Finland’s international relations” as a justification for the decision and said Russia’s mobilisation had a “significant impact” on the Finnish assessment. Restrictions include exceptions on human rights grounds, and Russians can still enter Finland to meet family, work, or study.Interior Minister Krista Mikkonen said it was possible the restrictions would trigger an increase in asylum applications and illegal border crossings.
Fearing that Russia could close its border “forever” following the mobilisation order, a growing number of Russians, many of fighting age, have been rushing to cross into neighbouring Finland in recent days.The number of daily crossings hovered around 7,000 or 8,000 last weekend and earlier this week, but numbers began to decline on Wednesday.
