The building of the Consulate of the Russian Federation in New York was poured in red paint (video)

The action was held by two unknown. While one of the sprayers poured the facade with paint, the other recorded what was happening on the camera. At about the first o'clock in the morning local time (at about 8 am in Kiev) on September 30, the facade of the Russian Consulate building was poured red paint in New York, Roszma reported. The consulate staff said that two people participated in the action: while one was watering the building from a spray paint, the other removed what was happening.

The paint turned out to be very stubborn, applied it with such a thick layer that in the morning the consulate employees could not open the entrance wooden door. At the same time, Russian diplomats complained that the city authorities had taken care of the protection of the building, although earlier it was constantly on duty by a police patrol. Police have not appeared near the building for several weeks. The detractors took advantage of this fact: they repeated the consulate this week this week.

New York police also reported that having received a vandalism report at about 1:30 at about 1:30, and immediately sent a patrol to the building on the 91st street, but no one could be delayed. The painted house is photographed by many passers -by. They perceived this incident as a civil action, not vandalism.

"Red paint, obviously, means the blood that Russia is responsible for killing the Ukrainian people and sending people to die in war, which is meaningless, cruel and stupid," Maria Phillips, a former Soviet citizen, told reporters. We will remind, on September 19 the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia declared an attack on the embassy of the Russian Federation in Canada: the territory of the institution allegedly threw the cocktail of Molotov.

In early September, two employees of the Embassy of Russia were killed in Kabul. When the Russian diplomat went to people to name the names of the applicants for a visa, a suicver terrorist exploded in the crowd. The negative attitude towards Russian officials is periodically demonstrated in Europe. On May 9, in Poland, the Russian ambassador Sergei Andreev, who came to a memorial cemetery to put flowers at the graves of Soviet soldiers, was poured in red paint.
