Once you enter France, you can go to any other EU country because there is no passport check when crossing the border between two EU nations.

England is not an EU country and a different rule applies.

Cyprus and Turkey.

I had heard of Turkey, but Cyprus is new.  Either one seems to be a splended place to vacation.

Yeah, it is very nice.  A little expensive, but not exorbitantly so.  I was there a year a go.  I went with a woman from Ukraine.  

There are some requirements in regards to a citizen of the FSU getting a visa , but nothing extreme.  The girl I was seeing took photo copies of her round trip tickets from Kiev, a copy of the receipt for lodging reservations (this was nothing more than an email) when she applied for the visa, and I think that this was pretty much it.  Upon entry they can be asked to show a certain amount of cash for each day they will be spending in Cyprus.  The girl I was with was not asked for this, but the girl in the line in front of her was.

Thanks for this reference.  However, this site is worthless for my purposes.  It only indicates whether a visa is required for a Russian to visit various countries, not the likelihood that one will be issued.  So when I inquired if a Russian can visit the US, the search engine indicated that the Russian could do so with a visa.
