The US Senate has approved the candidacy of Victoria Nuland for the post of Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs. She will be sworn in shortly. This is reported by TASS.

In May 2019, Nuland was denied a Russian visa. Then the Russian Foreign Ministry explained that the diplomat is included in the black list compiled by the Russian authorities in response to US sanctions.

From 2013 to 2017, the new Deputy Secretary of State of the United States oversaw issues related to the post-Soviet space in the administration of President Barack Obama. She is widely known for being one of the Western diplomats who publicly supported the protesters during the 2014 protests. So, she held a meeting with the participants of the demonstration, during which she handed out cookies.

Earlier, the Senate confirmed former Ambassador to Russia William Burns as director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The Upper house of Congress unanimously approved the appointment of Burns, who headed the U.S. mission in Moscow from 2005 to 2008.
