Что такое настоящая визовая зеркальность. Внутренние британские визы для советских граждан.
2 ноября поздно вечером по московскому времени английское правительство отменило ограничения на свободное передвижение российских граждан, временно находящихся в Великобритании.
Английское министерство иностранных дел подчеркнуло, что это решение является ответом на отмену Россией месяц назад ограничений на передвижение иностранных граждан по ее территории и устранение так называемых "закрытых зон".
Представительница британского посольства в Москве официально информировала Министерство иностранных дел России о том, что английское правительство отменяет для российских граждан ограничения на передвижение по территории Великобритании и требования подачи предварительного уведомления. Она подчеркнула, что временно находящимся в Англии российским гражданам отныне не нужно будет обращаться с просьбой о предоставлении виз для передвижения по стране.
Запрет на передвижение по Великобритании, наложенный английским правительством в 1952 году, ограничивал поездки граждан Советского Союза (дипломатов, журналистов и др.) - без предварительного предоставления уведомления и получения разрешения - радиусом 40 км от Лондона. Эти ограничения были введены в ответ на решение Советского Союза во время Второй мировой войны наложить такие ограничения на иностранцев. Таким образом приблизительно половина всей территории СССР была закрыта для посещения иностранцами.

LONDON, March 11.- Britain, France, Italy, Holland and Greece today imposed travel restrictions on diplomatic missions of Russia and other iron curtain countries.
The imposing of similar restrictions in Australia were urged to-night by Mr. W. C. Wentworth, M.H.R. the Liberal member for Mackellar.
Mr. Wentworth said it was Australia's duty to keep in step with the British Government's decision to restrict Russian, Rumanian and Bulgarian diplomats movements and rendering it necessary for them to seek permission to leave this capital.
Mr. Wentworth claimed that the number of staff in the Russian Embassy, in Canberra, was out of all proportion to any legitimate work they could perform.
It acted as an organising agent of espionage performed by the Australian Communist Party.
In Britain certain Communist diplomats are restricted in their movements to an area within 23 miles of London.
The Government told the diplomatic missions of Russia, Rumania and Bulgaria in notes that their diplomats, trade delegates, and journalists will have to apply for permission if they want to go further from the capital.
The move was taken because similar restrictions are imposed en British diplomats in the three Communist States.
Hungarian diplomats are already confined to an 18-mile radius of London.
The Foreign Office said all representatives of the three countries would have to give it 48 hours' notice if they wanted to go more than 25 miles away from London.
The Bulgarian Minister or Charge d'Affairs will personally be exempt from the regulation since the British Minister in Sofia is not tied to a similar order in Bulgaria.
Russian officials will be able to travel the 45 miles to the embassy's country home at Hawk-Hurst, south of London, by a regular route, without having to give notice.
The Foreign Office recalled that in January this year the Russians reduced from 81 to 25 miles, the distance from Moscow within which members of foreign missions could circulate without giving notice.
Even within the 25-mile radius of Moscow, large area were prohibited.
In Bulgaria, a large area, including all frontier regions, has been out of bounds since December, 1949.
In Rumania the greater part of the country, Including all frontier areas and virtually the whole of Transylvania, was altogether prohibited to members of the foreign missions in May, 1949.
The Foreign Office statement said that although large parts of the Soviet Union, Rumania, and Bulgaria could in no circumstances be visited by members of foreign missions, the British Government did not propose at present to prohibit any part of the United Kingdom to representatives of these countries.
A Foreign Office spokesman said that so long as British diplomatic missions in Poland and Czechoslovakia were not restricted, no ban would be put on their diplomats here.
WASHINGTON, March 11.
The United States imposed a 25 mile travel limit on Soviet officials and their families living in Washington and New York.
The limit cannot be exceeded without permission of the State Department.
State Department officials estimated that probably 257 officials and Russian employees and their families would be affected by the order.
The order does not apply to Soviet diplomats at United headquarters in New York. Their status is governed by treaty between the United Nations and the United States.
PARIS. March 11.
The French Government limited the movements of Soviet diplomats in France to the three departments nearest to Paris. The restrictions also apply to other Soviet citizens living in France, including journalists and their families.
Within the three departments the area surrounding Supreme Headquarters of the Allies Powers In Europe at Louveciennes, near Versailles, and the Atlantic Pact Central European Headquarters at Fontainebleau, south of Paris, will be out of bounds to Soviet citizens.
In Holland representatives of Iron Curtain countries will be restricted to the provinces of South Holland and North Holland, southof the North Sea. Canal.
OTTAWA. March 11.
The Soviet Embassy here Is being in formed formally that members of its staff must not go outside a certain area around Ottawa with out first getting permission from the External Affairs Department.
Canada's action represents the biggest step she has taken against the Soviet Embassy here since the spy trials In 1946. The Russians withdrew their ambassador shortly before the spy trials began and have never replaced him.
The head of the Embassy now is Mr. Leonid Teplov, Charge d'Affaires.
ATHENS, March 11.
