The U.S. has given Moscow its approval to appoint Alexander Darchiyev as the next Russian Ambassador to Washington, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced on Friday.

U.S. officials gave an official note of approval during talks between the two countries in Istanbul on Thursday, the ministry said.

"His departure for his post in Washington is expected soon," the statement added.

Russian’s previous ambassador to the U.S., Anatoly Antonov, ended his term in October 2024. He had led the Russian Embassy in Washington since August 2017.
