Russia itself will close the loophole for residents of Crimea to enter Ukraine
Crimeans will lose the opportunity to enter the territory of Ukraine, Georgia and some other countries in cars with Russian license plates, but registered in other regions of the Russian Federation in order to circumvent the sanctions imposed against the residents of the peninsula.
The fact is that in August of this year a law will come into force according to which the traffic police will begin to issue registration plates only in connection with the registration of the owner of the car, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports with reference to Kommersant.
This means that Crimeans will not be able to obtain license plates with a code of another region, which allowed them to enter the territory of Ukraine, since the current codes 82 and 92 assigned to Crimea and Sevastopol are not recognized in the “independence” territory.
Earlier on Russian automobile forums it was reported that with a registration plate from Crimea and Sevastopol it was not only impossible to travel to Ukraine - car owners were also turned away at the border with Finland and Georgia.
