A family with children cannot return to Russia from China

The family of Russians cannot leave Chinese Harbin. The family has two young children 3 years and 1 month. Russian citizens appealed to all structures from the Russian Foreign Ministry to the Ministry of Communications and the Consulate General, but so far to no avail. The contract with the Chinese employer is over, there is almost no money left, they have nowhere to live, the news agency reports.

The family of a resident of St. Petersburg, Mikhail Mikhienkov, who is now in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, has appealed to the editorial office of the news agency with a request for help. People are desperate. My wife and eldest son came to Harbin in 2018. We arrived at work, under contract, with work visas, everything officially, in compliance with all the requirements of both Russian and Chinese legislation. We worked in an orchestra in Heilongjiang province, in Harbin, I'm a musician myself. It was all right, we were expecting a second child. When the epidemic began, the wife was already eight months pregnant. We did not dare to fly then just do not fly on such dates. The borders were closed one by one. The baby was born, a month left to process all the documents. On June 30, 2020, I ended the contract. We checked in on the exit flight in advance. Gathered home, said Mikhail Mikhienkov. Then began completely shock for the family with two young children, one of whom is a baby, things. On June 30, at 3 a.m., we flew to Chengdu from Harbin. At 10:10 in the morning an evacuation flight was to take place, organized by the Russian Foreign Ministry and other government agencies. On June 25, State Services in its telegram channel published information about the upcoming evacuation flight. I repeat, we immediately registered for him. On June 28, I received a text message from the State Services website. It said my family was registered as passengers on the flight. It was necessary to arrive at the airport in 3 hours, we arrived in 7 hours, the head of the family said. At 6 a.m., Michael and his family approached the reception. But there they were informed that it was forbidden to allow passengers on the specified flight, since the Russian and Chinese sides did not agree on any export parameters. The evacuation flight was supposed to be performed by the Sichuan Airlines (PRC) aircraft. I rushed to call the Russian consulate. They told me that they called us on June 29 to warn us that the flight was canceled. But during their call, we flew on a plane from Harbin to Chengdu and could not answer, we were out of touch! The consulate told me that they could not help anything and hung up! We spent almost the last money on tickets to Chengdu. Two tiny kids in their arms. We just didn't know what to do! Mikhail reported. An hour later, Mikhail received a new SMS message from the State Services website, which reported that the flight, on which the Mikhienkov family was not allowed, was available. It would seem that you can fly home? But the cost of a ticket per passenger, indicated in the message, shocked the spouses: One hundred were indicated there
