MOSCOW, May 3 (UPI) -- Russia's Foreign Ministry Thursday accused the United States of "attempts to interfere in our domestic affairs" by proposing a visa ban for Russian officials.
"We consider such a presentation of a problem unacceptable as it runs against not only the character of Russian-U.S. relations, but also the universally accepted principle of presumption of innocence," Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said Thursday.
