“We can say with confidence that we would like to see Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov at the UN General Assembly,” Antonov said. “The embassy has already applied to the White House and the State Department with a demand to fulfill the obligations of the country on whose territory the UN headquarters is based, and to immediately issue visas to the minister, as well as to all members of the Russian delegation.”

He noted that Moscow will continue to "insist on ensuring the unhindered entry of representatives of the Russian Federation participating in the events of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly."
