Moscow-Sana
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on Washington's decision to classify Russians in the category of displaced nationalities of countries whose citizens cannot obtain a US visa on their territory.
And Zakharova wrote on Telegram today: There is an important thing that has been disrupted for a long time in the US State Department and they are failing to find a way to fix it. They have turned a technical procedure of a routine nature in the twenty-first century into a real hell based on sadism.
She noted that for many years, American diplomats had been destroying the system of providing consular services in Russia, closing consulates and reducing the number of consular staff, and tested whether our proportionate response to that differed from reciprocity, wondering, “Has it not occurred to any of the defenders of this dirty strategy that they are destroying such freedom?” their own themselves.
Zakharova indicated that it is not only a reduction in tourism and cultural exchanges, but rather a blow to families and relatives and to those ties that form a living fabric of relations between the countries and peoples inhabiting them.
According to a document issued by the US State Department, Russian citizens wishing to obtain an American immigrant visa must go to the US Consulate in the Polish capital, Warsaw.
