A year later, Russia agrees to set the same mode for arriving in Minsk for the second European game with 20 to 30 June 2019.
Therefore, from the beginning of the championship in Russia – the control of the Russian side in the “Red” has become much tougher.

However, visually on the border of Russia and Belarus is nothing like that in Russia is football world Cup. No signs or signs for fans to find failed. Only in one of the Windows security hung a small poster with the rules for completing “passport fan”.
Polite guards, but do not know English

Last Friday, the citizen of China, Jiang Qi Ming arrived at the Russian border station of the Red diesel train from Orsha.

Guest of the championship was very concerned when his train went to Smolensk without him. At first he thought he decided to return to Belarus.
The border guards were very polite, however none of them appeared to not speak English. In Russian, they tried to explain to a Chinese national registration procedure and made to follow them on their official car to the inspection station on the highway, promising that then he will travel on a special bus.
They took his passport and ID Fan, which caused the alien to panic. At the point of inspection, as it turned out, despite the large number of security officers that no one speaks foreign languages. Check lasted about an hour, and then it turned out that bus no. Jiang Qi Min continued on his way to Russia at the nearest ride, which was stopped by guards.
The exception is for the fans
With the appearance of the shift supervisor all the talk of guards was sharply curtailed. More stringent was the prohibition of photography, and the DW after careful review of the documents was “notified” about the necessity of accreditation of the Russian foreign Ministry to obtain the right to ask questions.
Only the duty of the border Department of FSB of Russia across the Smolensk region has agreed to clarify that foreign nationals, without a Fan ID still required to enter the territory of Russia through the international checkpoints, and “Red” is not.
This means that even athletes and members of sports delegations do not have the right to go to Moscow via Belarus, they are required to obtain a Russian visa and enter Russia from other countries.
