Restrictions on trips abroad for Russian nationals are not discussed, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Monday.

As [Deputy Foreign Minister} Oleg Syromolotov said [addressing the Federation Council], the Foreign Ministry is not addressing this issue, and no discussion is under way as to restrictions connected with Russians’ trips abroad," she said.

"As for recommendations concerning trips to this or that country, they are posted on the website of the Foreign Ministry and are connected with political situation in certain states," Zakharova added.
