Visa-free travel for residents living close to the border between Poland and Russia's Kaliningrad exclave will return when Warsaw no longer has security concerns, Interior Minister Mariusz Błaszczak has said.

Asked when local border traffic with the Kaliningrad region would be reopened, Błaszczak said: “When the causes that are related to the security of the Polish state disappear. Then we can reinstate small border traffic.”
Local border traffic with Ukraine and Kaliningrad was temporarily suspended ahead of the NATO summit in Warsaw, and the World Youth Day in the south of Poland. Similar border traffic with Ukraine was reintroduced earlier this month.
