Moscow says it ‘won’t forgive’ US after Russian reporters denied visas for UN visit

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says Moscow “will not forgive” Washington for denying US visas to Russian journalists meant to accompany him on a visit to UN headquarters.

“We won’t forget, we will not forgive this,” says Lavrov, who will chair several UN Security Council meetings in New York. He tells reporters that the United States has “chickened out.”
