Russian President Vladimir Putin has appointed Alexander Darchiyev as the new ambassador to the U.S., following U.S. approval. Darchiyev, a seasoned diplomat, will manage the complex Russia-U.S. relations.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has officially appointed Alexander Darchiyev as the country’s new ambassador to the United States, as per a decree released on Thursday. This move comes after the U.S. granted approval for Darchiyev’s nomination during recent discussions between Russian and American officials in Turkey.
Darchiyev, a career diplomat with extensive experience in North American affairs, is well-versed in U.S.-Russia relations. He previously served two long tenures at Russia’s embassy in Washington and held the position of ambassador to Canada from 2014 to 2021. Currently, Darchiyev is the head of the North America Department at Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This appointment comes at a time of heightened tensions between Russia and the U.S., marking a significant shift in diplomatic representation. Darchiyev's deep understanding of the region and prior diplomatic experience positions him to play a pivotal role in managing the increasingly complex relationship between the two nations.
The move signals Russia's intention to continue fostering dialogue with Washington, despite the ongoing challenges in bilateral relations. As ambassador, Darchiyev will face the task of navigating these tensions, particularly amidst global geopolitical shifts and concerns over security, trade, and international diplomacy.
