BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 25
Trend:
After Moldova and Poland, Slovakia will also accept Azerbaijani citizens who want to leave Ukraine due to the current situation, Trend reports citing Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry.
The Foreign Ministry said that Azerbaijani citizens who are in serious danger can leave the territory of Ukraine and go to Slovakia in the following order:
- Citizens of the Republic of Azerbaijan can enter the Slovak Republic through the border points between the two countries Uzhgorod, Maly Selmentsy and Maly Berezny (railway crossings Pavlovo, Chop).
- Given the fact that persons leave the territory of the Republic of Ukraine in connection with the conflict, the Slovak side does not necessarily require them to comply with the visa regime. At the same time, our citizens must present a travel document (passport) at the border checkpoint.
It is also reported that the Slovak side, in connection with the current humanitarian situation, will not require COVID-passports from Azerbaijani citizens wishing to cross the land border.
