USAID work halted in Russia, dealing blow to Obama’s ‘reset’ in US-Russian relations

[clearvision]

Washington Post:

The United States says Russia is ending the U.S. Agency for International Development’s aid operations in the country, dealing a blow to President Barack Obama’s policy of “resetting” relations between Washington and Moscow.

 

State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland says Russia informed the U.S. of its decision last week and that USAID’s office there would be closing. She didn’t cite a reason for Russia’s decision, but the Kremlin has long complained about U.S. democracy and human rights promotion efforts.
