Wait in line: Russian foreign minister left waiting for visa to enter US ahead of UN meeting
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov still has not received the visa he needs to enter the U.S. for a United Nations Security Council meeting later this month, despite Russia’s seat as president of the top international body.
"Not a single visa has been issued yet," Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told Russian news outlet TASS Wednesday, noting that Moscow’s delegation to the U.N. has also not yet received travel visas.
Russia's envoy to the U.N. told the Russian news outlet that Lavrov would travel to U.N. headquarters in New York for the meeting slated to begin April 24, though Fox News Digital could not immediately reach the State Department to confirm whether it would actually issue Moscow the necessary visas.
