U.S. Approves New Russian Ambassador to Washington, Formal Agrement Pending
Jan 20, 2025, 10:17 AM
The United States has granted approval for Russia to appoint a new ambassador to Washington, according to multiple reports and statements from Russian officials. However, Maria Zakharova, a spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, clarified that Russia has not yet received the formal agrement, which is the official consent required for the appointment. The previous Russian ambassador to the U.S., Anatoly Antonov, concluded his tenure in October 2024. Reports suggest that Alexander Darchiev, a former Russian ambassador to Canada and the current head of the North America Department at the Russian Foreign Ministry, is likely to assume the role. The formal appointment is expected to be finalized in the coming weeks.
