US refused to issue visas to Russian journalists for the work of the delegation on the sidelines of the UN in New York. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called such an act of Washington stupid and cowardly.
According to him, the truth will still be conveyed to the world community, and Moscow will not forget this step of the American side. He added that representatives of Russia will have to work for journalists and put more effort to convey the truth to world community. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov sharply condemned the behavior of the United States.
