Moscow and Washington will hold comprehensive consultations on the normalization of their embassies' operation this week, following two preliminary technical contacts, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told a news conference in Ankara.
"To this end, two preliminary technical contacts took place last week. This week, full-fledged consultations will occur, and I hope these discussions will help eliminate the artificial obstacles that have piled up due to the policies of previous Democratic administrations in the United States," Lavrov said.
