Just to confirm most countries advise against travel to Russia and many make it clear that Travel Insurance is not valid from many providers in the country. Given the situation it should come as no suprise that it is your risk to travel.
Phoebe, I understand travel advisories and concerns about traveling to Russia. When chatting with friend in Russia and gaining assurances from them that everything goes well. I am also aware that not everything that is happening in our world is news worthy. Blasé Pascal stated “Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.” Then there is only only truth in the world we must seek it. Thank you for kind words and assurances.
