Russian and US delegations to the East Asia Summit, which is taking place in Indonesia, exchanged notes on Saturday to ease visa regimes between the two countries.

Under new rules, businessmen and tourists will get 3-year multi-entry visas, while government officials will receive one-year multi-entry visas.

Currently, the Russians can visit without visas such South American countries as Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Columbia and Guyana. Uruguay will also join the list of visa-free countries for the Russians from December, 2011.
