As of May 3, citizens back to Russia and Belarus must have documented a valid reason for additional trips within the three month timeframe. Exceptions also apply for employees engaged in international freight and passenger transport.

Isn't it just ethnic profiling and surveillance?

There are so many legitimate reasons why people need to travel often. If your parents are sick, or your child or someone died then another one and so on. It's really a pitty that the iron curtain is being build up again.
