When Ukraine can open borders to tourists after quarantine

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, during a working trip to the Cherkasy region, said that state borders for foreign tourists will be opened after the end of the coronavirus pandemic.

This was reported on Friday, August 28, by the press service of the Presidency.

Then the chief expressed his confidence that after the end of the coronavirus pandemic, the Cherkasy region and all of Ukraine “will gladly open their borders to all their guests.”

“It is not just about the beautiful city of Uman. The Cherkasy region is rich in unique places and really fantastic, I saw it yesterday and today, nature. This is exactly the land where you can feel and understand the true Ukrainian spirit”, Zelensky said.

So the president mentioned Hetman’s capital, Chigirin, where the fortress of Bohdan Khmelnitsky, Ivan Vyhovsky, Pavel Teteri and Petro Doroshenko was located.

“This is the land of the Knights of the Cold Yar. And, of course, the land where the true Ukrainian giant of speech, thought, will and spirit was born and buried: Taras Grigorievich Shevchenko. I sincerely wish harmony and prosperity in your beautiful land, “Zelensky added.

We will recall, during a trip to the Cherkasy region, the President of Ukraine also said that the celebration of the Jewish New Year from September 18 to 20, 2020 in Uman is impossible due to the situation with the coronavirus. It is worth noting that tens of thousands of Hasidic pilgrims come to Uman every year on Rosh Hashan, but the government has decided not to let them enter the country this year due to the high risk of infection.

We also report that Ukraine closed its borders to foreigners since midnight on August 28.
