Russian Post has suspended package deliveries to the United States due to new U.S. import duties, the state news agency TASS reported.
The suspension does not apply to regular letter mail, which will continue as usual.
It remains unclear when shipments of packages from Russia to the U.S. will resume.
Beginning August 29, the United States will abolish the minimum value threshold that allowed goods worth up to $800 to enter duty-free.
Citing the absence of clear guidance on how to comply with the rules, about 30 countries — including most European Union member states — have already suspended parcel deliveries to the United States.
