“In view of the strong ties with the Russians, we hope that one day it will be possible to resume the work of diplomatic missions throughout the Russian Federation,” he said, answering a clarifying question from a journalist.

Price added that there is no way to predict when this will happen.

As the Ambassador of the United States to Russia John Sullivan said earlier, the work of the US Consulate General in Vladivostok will not resume in the near future.

The US Consulate General in Yekaterinburg will suspend the provision of visa services and the provision of consular services to US citizens from April 1.
