"We do have a formal request from the U.S. Embassy," Ryabkov said.

"This is not the first time we've encountered a situation where the U.S. Embassy in Moscow voices its grievances over how security is provided for U.S. diplomats working in Moscow, as well as several other aspects in relation to the safety of the U.S. diplomatic mission," the high-ranking Russian diplomat said.

"Every such request, including the one we received last week, is followed by thorough checks, the results of which are formally reported to the U.S. Normally, the issue would be considered solved," Ryabkov said.
