The US-Russia relations crisis, launched with the mutual expulsion of diplomats, culminated in the Syria intervention conflict, but did not end that.
Finally it was the Russian Foreign Ministry, which has complained that the relationship crisis between the two countries is affecting airline flights.
According to a communique, confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dimitri Peskov, the American side is reportedly refusing to grant Russian pilots visas.
“These difficulties were created deliberately as diplomatic cuts did not affect the consular section and responsibility falls on the United States”, Peskov declared.
However, the US Embassy in Moscow reacted, saying that these are all lies, while adding that Russian crews are available to provide the visa but are not being exploited by the latter.
