Russian Diplomats To Visit Utah In Early 2019 To Provide Consular Services - Antonov

SALT LAKE CITY (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 25th October, 2018) Employees of the Consular Section of the Russian Embassy in the United States will visit the US state of Utah at the beginning of 2019 to help Russian citizens living there solve their consular issues, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said.

On Wednesday, Antonov met with Russian compatriots currently living in Utah, who told him that the Russian nationals, especially the elderly people, are experiencing a lot of problems since the Russian diplomatic missions in San Francisco and Seattle are closed.

"As anywhere across the United States, our compatriots here have big problems related to the consular services ... [Elderly people] cannot travel to Washington, Houston or New York where we are providing these services. Today, we agreed that at the beginning of the next year, our diplomats will come to Utah to help our compatriots solve their consular issues," Antonov told reporters on Wednesday.
