MOSCOW - Russia on Tuesday summoned a senior U.S. diplomat in Moscow to protest over what it said was Washington’s unacceptable refusal to issue visas to members of a Russian delegation traveling to the United Nations General Assembly.
The Kremlin promised a tough response and said Jon Huntsman, the U.S. ambassador in Moscow, had been summoned to the foreign ministry, but Russian news agencies said that Huntsman’s deputy had gone instead. Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said U.S. officials had returned the relevant visa application documents saying they had been submitted too early.Zakharova said Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov would raise the issue with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in New York.
