US Not Going to Return Seized Diplomatic Property to Russia, Ambassador Antonov Says

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The US authorities are not going to return the seized diplomatic property to Russia, there is no progress in this matter, Russian Ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov said.

In 2016, the US expelled 35 Russian diplomats and shut the diplomatic compounds over suspicions of meddling in US elections, an allegation which Russia has strongly denied. The US seized a Russian diplomatic property on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, a facility used by Russian diplomats for recreation, and another diplomatic property – a New York mansion at Glen Cove, Long Island. Washington explained the move by saying that these compounds are ideal for eavesdropping on US communications.
