YEREVAN. – Ukraine does not plan on introducing visa requirements for Armenia, Ukrainian Ambassador Ivan Kukhta stated at a press conference on Thursday.

But such a matter came up on Wednesday, and following the instruction that was given to the Ukrainian MFA at the session of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine.    

In line with the instruction, Ukraine will demand visa requirements for Russia.

Based on the track-record, however, Kukhta noted that this procedure will not be implemented very quickly.

The ambassador also recalled that Ukraine has a visa-free travel procedure with Armenia, and stated that he sees no reason for changing this procedure in the future.
