Lavrov: we are preparing suits for diplomatic property of the Russian Federation in the United States

35
Russia is negotiating with law firms and collecting documents for going to court about the seizure of Russian diplomatic property in the United States, said Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on the TV program "Results of the week" on NTV.

We are doing this (document collection. - approx.). We talk with lawyers, collect information about which law firm has some opinion in the preliminary plan. But this thing is - we will not delay, but here we should not hurry
- he said, commenting on the information that Vladimir Putin ordered the Foreign Ministry to collect documents in order to go to court about the Russian diplomatic property in the United States.

Lavrov: we are preparing suits for diplomatic property of the Russian Federation in the United States


US authorities 31 August demanded the closure of the Russian consulate in San Francisco, the building of the trade mission in Washington and the rented premises of the trade mission in New York, citing the answer to the Russian proposal to reduce the number of employees of the US embassy. Russian diplomats met this requirement on September 2.

On the same day searches were conducted in the buildings of the consulate general and the Russian trade mission in Washington. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called these actions a gross violation of international law and added that Moscow is ready to go to court. The representative of the State Department after the searches said that the events were held after the closure of diplomatic objects and did not contradict the law, reports RIA News.

          Or maybe he’ll like it, there is a noble serpentine. Trump, who is not shaking hands, jumps around the oval office there - they will whisper in the State Department, take and put him a pig.
          He will then be imprisoned as an agent of the Kremlin for returning Russian property.

        it's forever ...
        it would be more productive to take away the US diplomatic property in Russia ...
        but normal heroes always bypass !!! therefore, it’s not worth waiting for an adequate answer, the only thing Russia can do is: kids for the New Year’s holiday, wives of ambassadors to a restaurant (in the future), in the end, kiss your ass, but say that they bit it ....
        seriously, it infuriates all this policy !!!
        if they can’t give a damn, then all sorts of fantastic blasters begin to invent ...
        After all, to sue, then doom yourself for many years of proceedings ...
        and then either the donkey will die, or the shah ....

          America exposes itself as the most important rule of law state. To return this property or not is not so important, I think. It is more important to show that theirs is not a legal state, but a zoo. And now only the main little animal has changed

      Half of the American diplomats went back to their America, the residence was taken from them, and the warehouse still. What blow do you still need?

      Americans who own property in the USA (the search was conducted without the sanction of the prosecutor), politicians who profess an alternative view to the State Department, and diplomats of other states. Case law jokes can end badly. The same story as with the all-Ukrainian Nadia. Lavrov creates problems for them domestically. Mattresses are accustomed to disregard international law, but they honor their laws, otherwise the Middle East's mess can reach the streets of New York

    Until we learn how to react, and all the time we will negotiate something, everything will remain that way. There are no American property in Moscow, I am sure that it is complete.

    We will file in the American courts! The situation is win-win. If the court is in our favor, the State Department’s enema is half a bucket of skia with gramophone needles. And if the court in such an obvious case will not be on our side - everyone without a doubt, those who own property in the USA will start and sleep poorly ... and this is the basis of the US economy - the inflow of capital!

        Yes, fullness! Throughout the world, the judge has the keys: "... based on a deep inner conviction ..." and "... I see no reason ...". And he will unscrew everything with these keys and screw it no worse than a real locksmith!

    I don’t really know what kind of documents these months need to be prepared for the court. But why are their consulates still not closed? After all, they promised symmetrical answers.

      So we led to the same number of diplomats, they closed our "extra" consulate. Now parity for employees and the number of consulates. Our even a parking lot was taken from them in Moscow since in the USA, our embassy does not have one.

    Vladimir Putin instructed the Foreign Ministry to collect documents to appeal to the court over Russian diplomatic property in the United States.

    Now, legal costs will begin to add to the lost property. The President is a generous soul.

    And so the legs, on which the hegemon stands, are “filed”. Russia hits the basic principle of liberal capitalism - the inviolability of property. And China is trolling the “world gendarme” with North Korean hands.
