Russian consulate in Seattle (USA) closed

Russian Foreign Minister




Aysin:
The leadership of the consulate general met with the Seattle State Department and indicated that the work of the consulate general was discontinued in accordance with the decision of the American authorities.


Today, as reported in the State Department, their representatives will inspect the premises of the Russian embassy in Seattle. The consulate office was located on the 25 floor of one of the local skyscrapers.

Recall that the formal reason for the expulsion of 60 Russian diplomats and the closure of the consulate in Seattle were the accusations made against Russia about the poisoning of the spy Sergei Skripal. So far, London has not provided any evidence in this case, and it will not present it for the simple reason that all this is just another anti-Russian provocation.

Earlier, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced retaliatory measures: the closure of the American consulate in St. Petersburg.

        First move to some half-abandoned bunker, otherwise ours rent 25 floors, the same nasty in separate mansions. Smooth, so smooth.

        For some, the stepmother's war, but for the mattresses, mother is dear. In war, their economies were raised, and not just one.
        The mattresses are trying to regain their world hegemony, while lowering the threshold of their responsibility for this ... but I'm sure the guys will be torn to butt with us and China right away. And there you see sanction pigeons will begin to fly from China to the United States ...

          The whole story of the seizure of embassy cottages near New York was arranged under Obama to obtain a place for a consulate in St. Petersburg. The Yankees looked after him, ours didn’t. So they came up with "pressure" - to take away dachas for the New Year.
          Now everything is simple: no consulate - no problem. bully

        from Peter already kicked out or not yet?

        Yesterday, glory-the-bast shoes, the flag was lowered. All. Not only the consulate building on Furshtatskaya was liberated, but also the consul's residence in Grodno Lane. fellow

      The Consulate General is closed, in the heat of fever. Articles with many are already being printed in the press ??? In terms of the intelligence center, as previously stated, absurd! Serious analysts are skeptical.

    It’s finally closed. Forever? I don’t know, maybe it’s right. I never wanted to go there, and I don’t need it either. It’s necessary for the liberals and the kids of moneybags. But they themselves will somehow protect themselves if that ..

    If the Consulate General in Seattle were of great benefit to the United States, they would not be shut down. A bowl of political ambition, at times outweighed this consulate. They (the top of the states) knew perfectly our response and were ready for it. And the words of indignation are only words. They seriously need to be bent and not soar in the looking glass.

      In order to bend, you need to be independent of the bend. So far, your power elite keeps with us, their earned hard earned, further unsupported claim, things will not work.

        So take away to hell, these "hard-earned" sanctions and unproven frauds throw. The people from them are neither hot nor cold. And all these actions already speak of a destructive policy for the states themselves.

          With regards to pick up, select, etc. Moreover, to hell, as you put it. Nizya, scare the holders of securities. China, for example. Everything should be justified and lawful. the New York state lawsuit against the assets of Heydar Baba lasts a year. And nothing. Of course, not without the help of the Israeli lobby in Congr. USA

            Well, China was not only scared away, but to put it mildly, "pissed off." About the New York lawsuits against the assets of Heydar Baba, I do not know. And the fact that there is an Israeli lobby - do not even doubt it.

              Not a bit. They (the lobby) have very close contacts now with their son. This explains the survivability of the regime in Baku.

    Since childhood, I did not like fences, some kind of internal rejection. Now in Russia there are fences everywhere - everyone encloses yards. And then I look everywhere fences.
    Is fences good? Do not be afraid of wolves in the forest ...

      Bad of course. Compare with the USA, no fences:

    notified the US Department of State of the removal of things and the closure of the diplomatic mission.
    The Americans even took out buckets, mops and floor rags from the consulate in St. Petersburg.
