“Our Russian operators Rostelecom, MTS and similar generally accepted Russian operators are coming. Their entry proceeds sequentially. For Ukrainian operators, there will be a smooth exit from here. At the moment we cannot get rid of Ukrainian operators. Therefore, for now, both +7 and +38 will be in effect,” he said.
It is impossible to say yet how long the transition will take – 1 or 2 months; it depends on the technical readiness of Russian operators. “A fiber-optic cable has already been laid here along the bottom of the Kerch Strait, and many technical measures have been carried out,” assured Menyailo.
