Jesus Christ even those of us with the most ‘powerful’ passports today can not even dream about this level of freedom of movement.
One small error, Eritrea didn’t exist as an independent country in 1983, it’d have been part of Ethiopia.
Wait, they had eVisas in 1983? Somehow that does not make sense to me.
Interesting that they had freedom of travel with western countries but restrictions with communist ones
Yugoslavia was such an odd place, a communist dictatorship with freedom of movement
eVisa? I always thought those were some kind of electronic/digital Visas…but not if it was back in 1983
I don’t think any passport today can compete with this in terms of the number of countries that are easily accessible.
Ah yes, the good old “crveni pasoš”. I could go for hours regurgitating stories about being able to go East and West, roam all over Berlin no questions asked, waved through at airports without even checking the passports, and travel from Belgrade to Montreal for an extended weekend, then do the next weekend in Leningrad or Warsaw, the stories many of us who grew up in the ethno-feudal post-Yugoslav wrecks know all to well. Btw, what is meant by e-visa? I find it hard to believe that electronic visa systems were in place at the time.
Except most people barely leaved their towns because they were dirt poor. Except party members and their children.
Why was egypt and greece only for diplomatic visits?
