Why should Russians not go to Germany by car?
The Russian Embassy in Berlin recommends avoiding entering Germany by car until the circumstances of the situation with the seizure of cars from Russian citizens are clarified.
The embassy statement notes that cases of seizure of vehicles from Russian citizens still continue citizens by the German customs authorities. According to representatives of the embassy, the seized cars are registered in Russia and were temporarily imported into Germany for personal use or transit.
The embassy strongly recommends that Russian citizens do not import vehicles with Russian numbers into Germany until the situation will not be clarified.
Citizens affected by the confiscation of cars are asked to report to the Russian consular offices in Germany about all cases of confiscation and subsequent return of vehicles, if any.
