Russia will tighten control over the entry of migrant workers from Ukraine. The latter’s loss is estimated at $11-13 billion.
This statement was made by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
"From January 1, 2015, Ukrainian workers in Russia with off-the-books income that constitute the majority cannot be employed without a permit," the Prime Minister explained.
Russia will tighten control over the terms of stay for migrant workers from Ukraine. According to the Prime Minister, Ukrainian nationals will be allowed to stay in Russia no more than 90 days within a period of six months. Previously, one could leave the country and return to continue working another three months. Now border guard officers will be on the alert for such ‘travelers,’ the Prime Minister promised.
"The reduction in remittance by Ukrainian immigrant workers will lead to losses for Ukraine. Currently, nearly 400,000 workers, including highly qualified specialists and those having a work permit are working in Russia," Mr. Medvedev said.
The total number of Ukrainian guest workers in Russia exceeds the official statistics significantly. On June 20, 2014, Secretary of Russia’s Security Council Nikolai Patrushev reminded Kiev that 6 million Ukrainian nationals are currently employed in Russia.
