The State Department could not explain the removal of flags from the Russian diplomatic missions

State Department spokesman Heather Nauert could not explain why flags were removed from closed facilities of the Russian diplomatic property, reports RIA News.

Speaking at the briefing, Nauert ignored journalists ’questions about Russian flags. However, under pressure from the press, she still said that she had no information about the reasons for this situation with the state symbols of the Russian Federation.

I dont know,

she said.

Earlier, the State Department said that the United States considered legitimate the removal of flags from Russian consular facilities in the United States. In turn, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that such actions are unacceptable.

The State Department responded to the request of the agency, ready to return the flags to the Russian side.

We informed the Russian embassy that we are happy to return the flags to the possession of the Russian government when it is convenient,

said a department official.

Recall that the American authorities 11 October removed the Russian flags from the captured consular buildings in San Francisco and the trade mission in Washington. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that the Russian side had already declared a “strong protest” to the US authorities.

Hi Pavel Already given. In Syria, we give them free walk, their mongrel systematically destroyed. Sanctions do not work, the geyropa groans from them, not us. On / in urkain also bummer after bummer. We don’t give Crimea, Donbass doesn’t surrender, Russia does not send troops.
But they answer us in this way, like small dirty tricks. It's not us, they show their weakness. Unpleasant of course, but not fatal

I agree. But this is so shallow ... Paul, this is all from powerlessness. Well, we won’t take off their flags For example, in Syria, it is necessary to make themselves removed and disappear.

You see, my friend, America (in my opinion) is more and more immersed in virtual, imaginary reality. An aberration of consciousness occurs, in which virtual enemies are perceived as real; defeated symbol, equivalent to a defeated enemy; an invented threat is converted into a real phobia. They are sure that the rest of the world lives in a reality invented by them. They think that by removing the symbol of our State and people, they defeated the State itself and we either admit the “defeat”, or we will also begin a virtual struggle. But we then live in the real world, where abuse of a symbol means an insult and implies real response. When it arrives in their real "face", for them it will be unexpected and sobering. I am sure they will return the Flags in no place.

What does the job, the record stuck ??? The director of the enterprise, what, should personally stand behind all the machines and personally produce products? He is a leader and makes products in demand and the company has a good reputation. And here too - Minister Lavrov! And he must, together with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, not allow such things, and if he did, then make sure that this does not happen again. And they do what they want with our Foreign Ministry.

And you apparently flow around with them? They have a job, understand? Do not wag your tongue, but do it. But there are no actions, one idle talk. I am not a minister and I don’t work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I am doing my job, and they must do their job. And their work is covered daily in the media, and there is nothing but jokes and concerns, and the Americans are doing what they want, because our Foreign Ministry allows it to behave like that. Well, if you approve and support this, then ... although in general the drum that you support there

[rudolff]

You are not quite right. The Foreign Ministry is doing everything it can and personally for Lavrov it would not have rusted. The problem is that all these retaliatory measures are under Putin's control, and he just does not give the go-ahead. As it was in December, when Lavrov proposed to immediately send 35 Americans and seize their diplomatic property. Putin refused and invited the children of American diplomats to a Christmas tree in the Kremlin. Now something like that. So all questions to the president. I sometimes feel sorry for Lavrov. I won’t be surprised if after all these KhPPs he resigns. Not foreign policy, but xs what.

So, what is MIRROR right now is to get them to return these flags themselves IN PLACE

[vikmar64]

How to answer? But like this:
Stop all contacts through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the State Department before the flags are returned to the place with an apology, in writing and in the media sphere, for the arranged debauch. Because otherwise such behavior at the state level cannot be regarded.

Then our people do everything right - politely and neatly say that doing so is not good. The brilliance of diplomacy! Yes, just do not answer with anything or are afraid. They wrote right here that with this gesture the Americans humiliated the honor of the country. With the flag, our soldiers in all wars went on the attack and cherished it like the apple of an eye, and here they ripped off the state flag, in full view of the whole world, and our fie, even talking disgusted about them. Humiliated and insulted, lowered below the plinth, frankly spat on all of us and the country. And those who, in theory, on the diplomatic front should protect us, only wiped themselves out in silence. Disgrace

Ships that will sail to our country from the Crimea will not be given permission to enter our ports. The ban imposed applies to ships under any flag.

[Dangerous]

PPC ... well, you can’t think so primitively! Well, you can logically think that this is not the first provocation of the Americans, and then everything is bolder and bolder. And that after the start of all this mess with real estate and consulates, it was necessary to give a proper answer. Which one? And such that these very provocations stop! In the Foreign Ministry, people are smarter and much more experienced than us in these matters to come up with this very answer. But there was no answer from our side, as a result, our flags are already being torn down, and all our concerns are voiced. And this means that next time the Americans will behave even more impudently. And all because they don’t put us in anything, because ours are not capable of action.

[Skif83]

Where is everyone? Where are all those people (citizens of Russia and not only) who are in the USA? Those who carry flowers to embassies and light candles in the days of tragedies. Where thousands of Russian students "exchange", specialists "contracted". Where are the immigrants longing for "birches"?
What are the names of those officers who were entrusted with the protection of the buildings? And who, even after receiving orders to depart, left the flags?

[earloop]

The removal of the state flag from the diplomatic mission by foreign citizens is an act of aggression. And the aggressor should be "awarded", of course, not with encouragement, but with table salt in a soft place from a caliber gun, from about the 7th to the 10th .. I think gunsmiths would enthusiastically execute a similar order for such a gun for the Foreign Ministry. And for emergency self-help to an attacker, install a water barrel nearby.
