Chisinau, May 15 /MOLDPRES/- On 31 May -2 June people who will be refused entry to the country will be placed at a temporary accommodation center set up at the Center for Temporary Placement of Foreigners. A decision in this regard was taken by the Commission for Emergency Situations.

According to the Media Group for Security News on European Political Community Summit, the measure will be applied in the context of the closure of the national airspace during the 1 June Summit, when the activity of air operators within the Chisinau International Airport will be suspended, and the immediate departure of the point border crossing will not be possible.

The expenses for food and medical assistance, borne by the Center will be provided by the General Inspectorate for Migration, except for people prohibited from entering our country.
