US President Joe Biden intends to lure leading russian scientists and experts. To do this, the United States can simplify visa requirements.
This was reported by Bloomberg.
According to sources in the publication, the Biden administration plans to abolish some visa requirements for russia's highly qualified scientists. In particular, the White House proposes to eliminate the need for an employer in the United States to obtain a work visa.
It is assumed that this rule will apply to citizens of the russian federation with a master's degree or doctorate in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics, obtained in the United States or abroad.
In particular, the Biden administration wants to make it easier for russians with experience in semiconductors, space technology, cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing, advanced computing, nuclear engineering, artificial intelligence, rocket engine technology, and other specialized fields to move to the United States.
Earlier, human rights activists called on Germany to grant asylum to russian deserters from the war in Ukraine.
