Lavrov: no obstacle to Russia, U.S. scrapping entry visas

MOSCOW. April 11 (Interfax) - There is no obstacle to Russia and the United States abolishing the entry visa regime in travel between them, according to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

"As far back as two years ago, [Russian President] Vladimir Putin proposed that we don't limit ourselves to loosening the visa regime but that we move toward the abolition of visas. We can't see any reason not to do so," Lavrov told RTVi television.
