Moscow Slams US for Not Issuing Visas to Russian Delegation to IAEA Conference
MOSCOW, (Sputnik) - Moscow considers unacceptable the fact that the United States had not issued visas to the Russian delegation to the IAEA international ministerial conference on nuclear energy in the 21st century, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
The conference will be held in Washington from October 26-28. The Russian delegation comprising representatives of state corporation Rosatom and technical watchdog Rostekhnadzor planned to take part in it.
"The United States never issued visas to the Russian delegates, despite the fact that the relevant applications were submitted by them in advance in accordance with the established procedure. Thus, Russia's participation in an important international event under the auspices of the IAEA was blocked in an absolutely unacceptable way and without any reason," Zakharova said in a statement.
The refusal of the United States to issue visas to the Russian delegation to the IAEA conference grossly violates the norms in the agreement between the IAEA and the state hosting the event, this gives reason to think about the advisability of holding international forums in the United States, Zakharova said.
This is another example of how the United States "implements its short-sighted policy of ignoring international law and replacing it with a perverted postulate of some kind of 'rules-based order' that Washington itself invents and adjusts for itself," she noted
"This is another reason to think about whether it is worth trusting the holding of large international forums to a country that is not able to organize them properly," Zakharova added.
