The Ministry of Digital development opposed restrictions on the departure of IT specialists from the country

"We believe that there are no restrictions here. Moreover, in this situation they will be harmful. That is, on the contrary, we want to say that, guys, those who left, come back and work quietly or continue to work, being there, for Russian companies", - the minister stressed. He pointed out that he is not a supporter of strict restrictions: "and even more so not to restrict travel." 

Over 900 IT companies are currently accredited under the new procedure.

Earlier in the media there were reports that one of the deputies took the initiative to ban the departure from Russia for "IT specialists". In October, the Russian Foreign Ministry assured that the issues of additional restrictions on the departure of Russians from the country are not discussed.
