The UK government on Saturday asked British nationals to
consider leaving Russia if their presence is not essential amid ongoing
tensions over the war in Ukraine.
“If your presence in Russia is not essential, we strongly
advise that you consider leaving by remaining commercial routes,” the Foreign
Office website said.
With tit-for-tat sanctions hitting airlines, the government
said it may not be possible to fly directly to the UK, or via EU countries, but
that travelling via the Middle East or Turkey may be possible.
Previous advice to Britons was not to travel to Russia “due
to the lack of available flight options to return to the UK, and the increased
volatility in the Russian economy.”
