MOSCOW, November 2. /TASS/. There have been no breakthroughs in the dialogue between Moscow and Washington on normalizing the work of diplomatic missions, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Yevgeny Ivanov told reporters.
In response to a TASS question as to whether Russia and the US were in contact on the activities of their diplomatic missions, he said: "No, there are no breakthroughs."
"There are no preparations [for contact]. We just hold regular consultations on the terms of stay but no new decisions or agreements have been made so far," the senior Russian diplomat noted.
"This is why it makes little sense to talk about it," Ivanov noted, adding: "At least, there is nothing to celebrate here.".
