Claim 1: “The permitted period of stay in Russia has almost doubled from 16 to 30 [days]”
SINGLE SOURCE
While multiple sources confirm that the current permitted stay is 30 days (including the Consular department of MFA of the Russian Federation and a Visa Guide), none of the provided evidence mentions the previous limit of 16 days or the fact that it 'almost doubled'. The current limit is verified, but the historical comparison is not corroborated by the provided evidence.
