Russina Citizens Pulled Out of Iraq
Alexander Yakovenko, the Official Spokesman of Russia's
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Answers a Question from
ITAR-TASS, Interfax and RIA Novosti News Agencies Concerning
Reports of Russian Citizens Leaving Iraq
Question:
In view of the aggravation of the situation around Iraq
staff members of the diplomatic missions there are
evacuating that country. Media are also reporting that
Russian citizens working there and members of their families
are leaving Iraq as well. What could you say in this
connection?
Answer: Indeed, there goes the reduction of
the colony of Russian citizens in Iraq numbers. Members of
the families of the Russian specialists have already left,
and at present measures are being taken to organize the
departure from Iraq of an additional number of our citizens.
It is borne in mind to carry this out by planes of Russian
airlines. As to the Russian embassy in Baghdad, it continues
to work as usual.
