American Embassy to Minsk stops giving out visas

An announcement has appeared on the web site of the US Embassy. The government of the United States of America is considering the recommendation of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs about staff reduction in the US Embassy to Minsk. “In connection with it, visa appeals will not be considered for some time, because we have other priorities at the moment. Some of the already appointed visa interviews have been postponed. Further information will be available as soon as the possibility and capacity of rendering visa services by the US Embassy are defined”, - reports the web site of the Embassy.

Let us remind you that the US Ambassador Karen Stewart left out country last week according to the recommendation of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affaires.
