The USA confirmed the data on the requirement for 24 diplomats of the Russian Federation to leave the country

Information about Washington's reduction of the situation to the fact that 24 Russian diplomats were actually forced to leave the country at once was confirmed. This information was announced in an interview with the American edition of The National Interest by the Ambassador of the Russian Federation to the United States of America Anatoly Antonov. Russian diplomatic representatives will leave the United States today - August 3.

According to Anatoly Antonov, almost everyone will leave for Russia without replacement. The reasons for this situation are also named.

It turned out that these diplomats will not be able to continue their work in the United States due to the fact that the American authorities have sharply tightened the procedure for issuing visas.

The ambassador noted that the United States continues the practice of "squeezing out Russian diplomatic staff."

At the same time, experts note that at the moment the Russian Federation is not taking any countermeasures. So far, there is no talk of the expulsion of an equal number of American diplomatic personnel.

Washington commented on the situation, calling it "purely technical." Thus, according to the US State Department spokesman Ned Price, Russian diplomats "must apply to the State Department to extend long-term visas." Valid visas will expire soon. At the same time, the question regarding each diplomat is going to be resolved by the US authorities on an “individual basis”. This may lead to the fact that the visa may be expired, after which entry into the United States for Russian diplomatic personnel may be completely prohibited (based on American laws).

As the visa issue for the 24 diplomats has not yet been considered, Price said they will have to leave the United States.

Another round of political pressure on us.

And someone spoke about a warming in relations after agreements on the resumption of full-fledged work of diplomatic missions ...

Well, how is it possible with these ,,, to have at least some business ?! They do not hold a word, they ignore all the rules, but I generally keep quiet about international law. Our Foreign Ministry has more nerves, they will still be needed.

[SKVichyakow]

Send 24 mattress toppers, by September 3, and all short. They only understand this.

[Vladimir Mashkov]

So trust the Americans after that, negotiate something with them ...

[SKVichyakow]

It is counterproductive to negotiate with them. When they are in burnout, only in this case they try to follow the agreement, but as soon as the positions are compared, they spit on all agreements. They just always need to be kept tense, and without a contract.

[Shurik70]

at the moment the Russian Federation is not taking any countermeasures

WHY?

[Snail N9]

I don't understand something else: the United States stopped issuing visas in Russia, who need American visas, they are forced to go to other countries for them. Taking into account the covid restrictions, it became impossible for Russians to obtain American visas from the word "in general", which seriously affected, for example, our sailors, which crewing companies began to get rid of in favor of Ukrainians and Poles, who do not have such a problem. However, American consulates and embassies in Russia are not closed; they continue to carry out subversive activities among non-governmental and public organizations. This begs the question: "Since American consulates and embassies do not issue visas to Russians, why do they need them?" "Why aren't they completely closed?" Usually, in such a situation, the consulates and embassies of a hostile country are completely closed, and diplomatic rights in relations between countries are delegated to the embassies of neutral countries. But Russia is not doing this with the United States. Why? The Americans closed all the diplomatic institutions of Russia in their country, except for one, not only were they closed, but in fact taken away, and in Russia the US consulates continue to function, albeit with a limited number of personnel. They must be closed immediately.

Probably this is just the case to recall the old, still Soviet joke about how V.I. Chapaev fought with the shortage of consumer goods in the USSR, but already in relation to the crowds of today's "elite" breaking into the West:

- Vasily Ivanovich, how did you cope with the problem of shortage of goods?

- Yes, we just put two Maxims at each "back door" to the shops ...

- Why TWO ???

- One was overheating...

[tralflot1832]

The American elite for a part of the Russian people, a small part fortunately, as it has flown and will continue to fly, without any problems, but the elite, in my understanding, working for the good of Russia, will have problems with American visas.

[komandir8]

In the United States, few fly from wealthy people; all real estate and financial assets are overwhelmingly located in European countries and banks.

[Avior]

The subtleties, as always, lie in the details.
Americans issue diplomatic visas, and diplomatic passports are not only held by diplomats. Therefore, it became even more convenient for all ministers and deputies.

[Glory1974]

Americans issue diplomatic visas

The article says that they do not give out. Do you have other information?

[den3080]

So we talked, so to speak, between Putin and Biden in Geneva.
So Ambassador Antonov will run out of visa
This means that the stars and stripes will have the same in Russia.

Until then, they will "have" us while we "substitute another sheku" ... And how can we not tolerate "ours" if they have everything there! Children, real estate, back-breaking savings ...

[tralflot1832]

In the war of the embassies on the diplomatic front, no change. To our ban on the recruitment of technical personnel in the host country, the Americans responded with a little bit. We are waiting for the first non-working toilet in the American embassy. I hope they have vacuum ones, like throughout the American country. The American exceptional ass to others is not used to.

[Rurikovich]

This is an international level !!! This is not a yard area
Any changes must be agreed in advance! and not ex post facto. And then, like children in the sandbox - and I changed the rules, be-be-be ... And now they turn on the toggle switch to the "D" position and write off everything on technical issues. Personally, I would give a week of time to settle the moment and after the expiration of the reply, in the same amount

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs would be more jawed. And work more quickly. This message about, let's be honest, the expulsion of Russian diplomats "in soft packaging" did not appear yesterday. So it was immediately necessary to present the return line. And it would not hurt to shake up the Russian "elite" too. "Either there or here", stop making money here, and invest money there.

[rocket757]

Stripes are still those "partners", not even for us alone ... they can do this with everyone
The question is, what is a technical, as they say, action can be a "merit" of a petty clerk / official who wanted to show off .... this also happens.
You can watch the Olympics ... small bureaucrats from striped jaws opened their mouths in the direction where they were not invited at all ... because they believe that the earth revolves around ... the finger on which they planted the globe.
If serious politicians are forced to adjust their actions / decisions in accordance with the situation in the world, at least somehow, then the OWNER simply does not understand, does not accept another reality that is different from the one he wants.

[Reptiloid]

You would remember the striped ones, how they were indignant when some of them had their visas stopped.

[rocket757]

Yes, the man in the street does not care about that, from their very best hillock!
We do not have a Mecca, for pilgrims because of the okeyan, they can travel a lot with their passports, without straining, and this is a fact!
It was the USSR that was a tempting secret, with a capital letter ... and Russia, as they were told, is .... a bunch of stereotypes that very few are ready to destroy, check.
Alas, it is.

[Reptiloid]

That's right, not just tourists went, but all sorts of muddy things to do things here, to feed the fifth column.

[rocket757]

Different people have traveled and are still driving, and there are always fewer people who are completely muddy ... both then and now.
Do not repeat stereotypes, think sensibly.
There are people who come ... not understandable, at first and second glance! And they are just OTHER, they came "grounded" in stereotypes, from the other side.

[Reptiloid]

No, Victor. then it was those with the appropriate positions that protested. There were also specific surname bans. In response to their sanctions.

[rocket757]

I'm talking about the general flow of those who come here for various reasons ...
About those who come here on "business", a separate conversation, if that.

[Lord_Bran]

There is no rest for the abnormal. Just to shit. Maybe it's time to cut off their oxygen in Russia too?

Measures should not be counter, but preventive. Hit it first, Freddie!

Take your time, if only because American diplomatic institutions are more vulnerable in our country than ours in Washington and New York. Therefore, the question is now being studied of how to make them more painful, but at the same time comply with international agreements, so that there is not something to complain about. As a rule, within a month and will be made a statement about the response. So it is not necessary to boil ahead of time, and it is generally unreasonable to hit first, at least because Biden is now not in the best shape due to insanity, and he does not care at all, including our diplomats.

[Pavel Tukabaev]

ours, as always, will wipe the snot and apologize to them for the inconvenience ... but the Russian bureaucrats in tan are their own people

I think you are wrong. Already in the field of diplomatic "battles", the Russian Federation has learned to give back to the United States. It was so painful for the last time that the diplomats of the State Department do not want to give visas to Russians on the basis of their words. They will find something to answer. IMHO.

[grassyknollgunner]

The dogs bark, the caravan moves on ...

[Vitamin]

Yes, drive their diplomats with a filthy broom too.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Americans remind me of our chubaty. They are venal, sneaky and resourceful. They are supportive only when it comes to material gain. Hopefully the answer is similar.

[Rybkin]

So soon, instead of exchanging diplomatic tricks, it will come to hand-to-hand combat .... Well, there - off we go!

[rocket757]

... Things are going on, the office is writing.
The question is, is it an initiative of some of the "branches of government" or officials work according to the rules and nothing else?
After all, you can inflate an elephant out of a fly, against the background of everything else, little pleasant ...

Official, what to take from him.

[cniza]

This is not an ordinary official, although he can quickly frame the switchman ...

An official who has crawled through everyone has a developed mode of "switching arrows to others" and is ALWAYS enabled!

[cniza]

Yes, a real bureaucrat ass in such matters ...

[rotmistr60]

Direct sabotage and obstruction of the work of Russian diplomats in order to put pressure on Russia. Another confirmation that it is useless to negotiate with the Americans. These only understand tough retaliation and the possibility of using force. In a word - they have been and remainлantsi.

[Snail N9]

The Kremlin, until now, hopes to sit down at the same table with the "powerful of this world." He hopes to enter the "circle of the elite", which is preparing a new transformation of the world based on the latest management and control technologies. Everyone hopes, hence the behavior that seems "strange" to us ...

Moscow will also call the situation technical and the issue will be closed. As was previously closed the issue with the diplomatic property of the Russian Federation in the states. But all the same, Lavrov is the best Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the guarantor in international affairs of a galactic scale, a guru of a galactic scale.

[Poschli]

To believe in us - not to respect ourselves! Gentlemen understand only the language of "Kuzka's mother"!

[gsev]

If the Russian Foreign Ministry does not send an equal number of US diplomats by September 3, the US State Department will decide that it has found the right tactics in diplomatic relations with Russia and will continue unilateral pressure. And if Russia responds and leads to a break in diplomatic relations with the United States, inviting Chinese diplomats to represent the interests of Russia, then there will be a chance that a thaw in relations with the United States will begin with the opening of a consulate in San Francisco and in response to the lifting of the ban on the late McCain from visiting Russia.

[Soldatov V.]

In principle, it's okay. Visas can also be issued online to both countries if they do not want to see each other and communicate. Business people can communicate and negotiate via skype or telegram. Relatives are already chatting on the Internet and in smartphones every day. The military also has a connection between the commanders.
Maybe it's time to start a relationship from scratch? Sit down and think about what we need from the United States, and the United States what they need from Russia. After the October Revolution, there was no relationship for a while, and nothing somehow survived and came to some kind of decision, a compromise.
For some reason, at all times we climb with our peacefulness, help, gas, oil, timber, moralizing, push hard-earned money into foreign banks, which will never return from there. Our government, the oligarchs definitely need to be checked for adequacy by psychiatrists.
If the United States does not even allow diplomats to enter the UN, create its own UN according to the version of China and Russia.
Not expressing concern and mocking America, but silently create their own world around them.
