Spokesman for the U.S. Embassy in Moscow declared persona non grata

42

Press Secretary of the US Embassy in Russia Rebecca Ross has been declared persona non grata and will leave Russian territory. It is reported by "Businessman" citing a source at the Russian Foreign Ministry.

As the newspaper writes, Ross was included in the list of ten American diplomats whom Russia is expelling as a response to the expulsion of Russian diplomats from the United States. The inclusion of the press secretary of the embassy on this list is associated with a mirror response to the actions of the United States, which for a long time have not allowed the press secretary of the Russian embassy into their territory.



The Russian Foreign Ministry called the actions of the United States "strange", since no explanation has been received on this fact, but for six months already the Russian diplomat appointed to the post of press secretary has not been allowed into the country. Since the Russian embassy can do without a press secretary, then the American one will also do. Moscow simply "mirrored" Washington's actions.

Recall that ten American diplomats from the US Embassy, ​​declared persona non grata, must leave the territory of Russia by May 21. The expulsion of the Americans from Moscow is part of the retaliatory measures introduced against the United States on April 16. The United States, which did not expect a "mirror" response from Russia, still cannot understand how Russia dared to retaliate, which hit Washington quite tangibly. In Moscow, however, they warned that any actions that run counter to Russia's interests will receive a corresponding "mirror" response.

      Well, right!
      After all, the press secretary oversees the lured media. Monitors publications, holds events with journalists ... And, mainly, with the "opposition".

          Why mirror? Kind of like, so far, on any action answered asymmetrically. And they considered it the best approach. Already coming out not the best or what? I do not have time to follow the logic of those in power!

      BO, can't you even plagiarize the news to the end?
      When Kommersant asked why the embassy press secretary was on the black list, a source in the Russian Foreign Ministry made it clear that this is a mirror response to the US actions, which have prevented Russia from filling the vacant position of the Russian embassy press secretary in Washington for more than six months. : “They (the Americans - Kommersant) are behaving very strangely. The person appointed by us as the press secretary of our diplomatic mission is not allowed into Washington, and without explanation of any reasons. This is a diplomat with extensive experience who previously held similar positions in two other Russian embassies. And the United States simply returned the documents submitted by this person for a visa, without even commenting on the reason for their refusal. So this is not a Russian initiative. "

      Presence of psi doc. in Afghanistan does not have any influence on our influence in the region.
      They shit on us from the West. Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and other Kirghizia view Russia as a cash cow, pumping huge amounts of money through Gaster. Bayam has a good life, just send a donkey to a neighbor and collect tribute from his subjects. They wanted to spit on us and our interests. Even in the Soviet Union they could not bring them to a common denominator. It was from Central Asia and the Caucasus that the collapse began. The fight for Afghan USSR with mattresses had a completely different background than it is now. We were awkwardly exporting socialism in the wrong direction.
