Dozens more Russian diplomats and their families will leave the United States, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said on the YouTube channel “Solovyov Live”.
“Our diplomats are being kicked out. On January 30, a large group of my comrades will leave us – 27 people with their families. On June 30, a similar number will leave from here,” the ambassador said.
Antonov said about the unresolved problem with visas for diplomats in the United States. “We are facing a serious personnel shortage,” he said. According to the ambassador, the spouses of diplomats are deprived of accreditation, and children are not given visas.
“We are still considered as opponents here. They are trying to talk to us only on issues that are of interest to the United States,” Antonov added
At the end of October, the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that the United States had demanded that 55 Russian diplomats and administrative and technical workers leave the country in the coming months.
