Suomi kiristää venäläisten maahantulorajoituksia: myös ammattiurheilijoita kielletään
Suomen ulkoministeriö ilmoitti ottavansa käyttöön uudet Venäjän kansalaisten maahantulorajoitukset, jotka tulevat voimaan 16.marraskuuta.
Rajoitukset koskevat myös ammattiurheilijoita ja lyhytaikaista viisutyötä suunnittelevia venäläisiä.
Suomen hallitus sanoi, että venäläisten maahantulo niin sanotuissa "ei-välttämättömissä tarkoituksissa" on väitetysti uhka maan kansainvälisille suhteille.

What the Pravda version changes
On 12 Nov 2026 Finland's government tightened the entry rules for Russians, so Russian athletes and others on short-term work visas can enter only if the work is essential to Finland's national interests. The rules take effect on 16 November.
Misinformation: low
Manipulation: low
Reframed · framing
The headline suggests a broad tightening of entry for all Russians, but the change only covers short-term work visas such as professional sports.
Pravda says
“Finland tightens entry restrictions for Russians”
Suomi kiristää venäläisten maahantulorajoituksia
Trusted report · Yle
“The new restrictions will apply to short-term work carried out under a visa, such as professional sports”
Reframed · framing
Pravda calls it a flat ban on athletes, while the trusted report describes a restriction of the work-visa exception, though the minister's own wording is categorical.
Pravda says
“professional athletes are also banned”
myös ammattiurheilijoita kielletään
Trusted report · Yle
“Now this opportunity for Russian athletes will be limited.”
Теперь эту возможность для российских спортсменов ограничат.
Left out · framing
Pravda gives no reason for the rule, namely that Russia uses sport as propaganda for its war, so the move looks arbitrary.
Trusted report · Yle
“Russia uses sports as a propaganda tool and seeks to use sports to promote the goals of its illegal war of aggression”
