Russia has cautioned its nationals against visiting Bangkok in the next couple weeks due to upcoming opposition protests in Thailand, the Foreign Ministry said Wednesday.
"On March 11 through 23, anti-government opposition protests have been planned in Thailand, primarily in the historical center of Bangkok and near government buildings," the ministry said.
It advised Russian tourists in Thailand against visiting Bangkok while those who already are in the Thai capital should exercise caution and avoid public rallies.
No information is available on how many Russian tourists are in Thailand or how many were planning to visit.
The United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship is planning to have up to 1 million people out in the streets on March 14 in anti-government protests in Bangkok and continue the demonstrations until the Abhisit Vejjajiva government falls.
