Sept. 24 (UPI) -- Russia's Foreign Ministry criticized the United States for denying visas to 10 members of Russia's delegation who were trying to attend the United Nations General Assembly.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Dmitry Peskov demanded that the United Nations intervene since this concerns the United Nations and its headquarters location in New York City, Russia's state-run media reported. He said the United States has no right to impose restrictions on countries visiting the U.N. because it's the host country.
