Politico: Exclusive: Russian ambassador pleads for help in securing Washington meetings
Anatoly Antonov has been rebuffed by U.S. government officials who are reluctant to be seen as friendly toward the Kremlin.
Congressional leaders won’t meet with him. Neither will the vice president or the White House chief of staff.
And the Russian ambassador says he is at his wit’s end.
In a letter to Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) earlier this month, Anatoly Antonov asked for help in obtaining meetings with a slew of U.S. lawmakers and officials. The March 9 letter was written two days after a POLITICO story detailed some of Antonov’s travails in securing meetings in Washington.
“I would be very grateful for your advice on how to develop contacts with members of U.S. Congress, departments and agencies, as well as for your possible assistance in setting up such meetings,” Antonov wrote in the letter, obtained by POLITICO.

If you are a businessmen, reporter or politicians, the Russians have probably considered or have contacted them in some way.
The Russian reporter, Russian diplomat, or Russian anyone could be a spy.
I suggest the Democrats and RINOS talk to no one until they are given permission by the DNC.
Democrat politicians should be especially careful talking to illegal Russian immigrants. There are more than a few. They could be agents or informants for Russian intelligence.
Democrats should stay in a safe padded room.
