Russia’s Foreign Ministry said on Friday that the United States had given Moscow its official blessing to appoint Alexander Darchiyev as its new ambassador to Washington.
The American side had handed over an official note green-lighting Darchiyev’s appointment during talks with Russia in Istanbul on Thursday, the ministry said.
Darchiyev, currently head of the Foreign Ministry’s North America Department, will leave for Washington soon. Moscow has not had an envoy in the U.S. since the last ambassador left his post in October.
