As she noted on her Telegram channel, the United States has sunk to bullying.
“For many years, American diplomats have been destroying the system of rendering consular services in Russia that they did not create: they closed consulates, reduced the number of consular staff, experimented with how our symmetrical response differs from the mirror one.
They turned a technical procedure, which is banal for the 21st century, into a real hell based on mockery on the verge of sadism, ”Zakharova wrote.
According to her, this decision is a real blow to families and relatives - ties that "form a living tissue of relations between countries and peoples inhabiting them."
Earlier, the US State Department included Russians in the list of "homeless nationalities" and obliged them to apply to the American embassy in Warsaw to obtain an immigrant visa.
