More bad news. Don't expect the Moscow Embassy to go back to normal any time soon.

Russia says talks with U.S. fail to make headway on embassies dispute

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia and the United States failed to make any major progress on Tuesday in resolving a row over the size and functioning of their embassies and there is a risk that relations could worsen further, Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said.

With ties already at post-Cold War lows, the two countries are in dispute over the number of diplomats they can post to each other's capitals, though Moscow said it was willing to lift restrictions imposed in recent years.

"I cannot say that we have achieved great progress," Interfax news agency quoted Ryabkov as saying after talks in Moscow with U.S. Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland. "There is a risk of a further sharpening of tensions."

There was no immediate comment from the U.S. side.

Last week the Russian foreign ministry said a U.S. congressional proposal to expel 300 Russian diplomats from the United States would lead to the closure of U.S. diplomatic facilities in Russia, if implemented.

Three US Embassy employees could be expelled from Russia after they were accused of theft

Three U.S. Embassy employees based in Moscow, Russia could face expulsion from the country after they were accused of theft.

The Russian foreign ministry alleged on Friday that the employees stole "personal belongings from a Russian citizen," according to the Washington Post. The ministry demanded the staffers have their diplomatic immunity status revoked so that they can face prosecution in Russia or leave the country.

The ministry told TASS, a state-owned Russian news organization, that they had notified the US embassy of their request. The ministry did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Daughter-in-law Applied for police report.They said it takes 30 days. It is now one week past the 30 days and no police report. She emailed the State services portal where she ordered the police report and they said it was not their responsibility. They gave her three other numbers to call. She called one they said it wasn t their responsibility the other two numbers don t answer. Has anyone else had difficulty getting their police report from Russia and do you know who she could go to for help to get this police report she needs?

Part 4, Question 62 of the I-130 form asks to select the US Embassy where the immigrant visa will be applied for. My wife is a Russian citizen and as you all know, Moscow has paused all visa services. Can we put another country (for example Georgia) if we don't have any ties to that country?

Does anyone have any experience doing this in the past 18 months?

New U.S. travel rules close door on those fully vaccinated with Russia’s Sputnik V

The United States announced last week that it would soon open its doors to foreign travelers vaccinated against the coronavirus, loosening restrictions for broad swaths of global visitors for the first time since the pandemic began.

But the new rules, set to take effect in November, appear to also shut out many people who consider themselves to be fully immunized including millions who have received two doses of Russia s Sputnik V vaccine.

Hundreds of thousands of Russians could be directly affected. Despite frosty diplomatic relations and limited demand for international travel, roughly 300,000 Russians visited the United States in 2019, the last year for which figures are available, according to the U.S. Travel Association.
