The Foreign Ministry will be offering three-month visas as early as next month, Russian state media said.
  • Putin has signed a decree that Russia will welcome foreigners who want to escape Western liberal ideals.
  • Applicants may include those from countries unaligned with “Russian spiritual and moral values.”
  • The application process has been simplified, and visas will be issued as soon as next month.
