US Embassy in Moscow calls for its citizens to leave Russia immediately
According to the press release, the Russian authorities can deprive persons with dual citizenship of access to the US consular assistance, prevent their departure from the aggressor country and even call for military service. The embassy reminds that nowadays commercial flights from Russia are extremely limited and often inaccessible to a pre -planned trip. However, land routes for vehicles and bus connections are still open.
At the same time, the US Embassy has serious restrictions on assisting its citizens. "If you want to leave Russia, you should do it yourself," the message said. The Embassy also advised their compatriots to give up in the near future a trip to the aggressor country. "We remind US citizens that Russia is not guaranteed the right to peaceful gatherings and freedom of expression.
Avoid any political or social protests and do not take pictures of the security service staff at these events," the press service of the diploma emphasizes. As it is specified, there are already facts of detention of US citizens who participated in anti -war demonstrations. The number of detained citizens is not reported. We will remind, Latvia declared the regime of the emergency at the border with Russia through mobilization.
The country is afraid of a sharp strengthening of the influx of Russian citizens who run away from conscription. The emergency regime will take three months. Earlier, Bloomberg reported that Vladimir Putin plans to seize Odessa and Kharkiv after mobilization in the Russian Federation. The Kremlin did not abandon their plans for the annexation of other Ukrainian territories. However, journalists believe that 300,000 unrequited conscripts are unlikely to change the situation on the battlefield.
