The United States has agreed to the removal of Russian diplomats from the country

The official representative of the State Department, Matthew Miller, said that the United States had agreed to the removal of Russian diplomatic employees from the country.

“We strictly adhere to the principle of reciprocity with Russia regarding special transport missions for diplomatic personnel and cargo, expecting that Russia will also keep open transport channels for our diplomats and cargo in relation to our embassy in Moscow,” he said.

Miller added that we are talking about a charter flight designed to pick up Russian diplomatic officials.


Not so long ago, the Russian Foreign Ministry said that a domestic flight was being sent to the United States to take out diplomats, whom Washington ordered to leave the country at the end of a three-year stay. According to the agency, we are not talking about the expulsion of employees.
