The Russian government is sending this plane, an Ilyushin Il-96 - to the U.S. to ferry its expelled diplomats out of the country by New Year's Day


The Russian government is sending the plane to ferry its diplomats out of the U.S., after President Obama expelled them in a new round of sanctions against the country for its alleged meddling in the presidential election.

On Thursday, the president labeled 35 Russian diplomats from the country's embassy in Washington, DC and consulate in San Francisco 'persona non grata' - giving them 72 hours to get out of the country.

Previous reports stated that some of the diplomats were having a hard time booking travel out of the U.S. at the last minute and during the holiday season.

The Kremlin addressed the issue on Friday, saying they would be sending a plane to the U.S. to pick up these expelled diplomats and their families, ensuring that they are out of the country by Obama's New Year's Day deadline.

Na wa. So this cold war continues?

Obama over reacted I must say.... He just keep making Putin more popular by the day especially as the Russian government has decided not to retaliate..

On Friday, the Russians quickly packed up two compounds in Maryland and New York, which President Obama is closing in the new round of sanctions.

Below, the Russian compound in Centreville, Maryland on Friday, where a ladder was left propped up in the last minute move.

President Obama cut off Russian access to the two buildings starting at noon on Friday.

That left the Russians with little time to pack of the houses. Above, another view of the Maryland compound where a window was left ajar

hmm

People are seen gathered outside the Russian-owned Maryland compound on Thursday.

A long line of moving trucks, SUVs and buses were seen with diplomatic plates leaving the Russian government's estate in Centreville, Maryland on Friday.

I LOVE RUSSIA

Putin is Trump's godfather.

Too much over reaction from Obama!

TRUMP RESPONDS: MOVE ON.


Donald Trump's chosen White House press secretary on Thursday urged the Obama administration to show its cards if it has solid proof that Russia was behind a series of election-year computer hacks that may have cost Hillary Clinton the presidency.


Vans arrived at the Russian Embassy in Washington, DC on Friday, after emptying the government's compounds.

Cars are seen entering the Killenworth estate on Friday, as Russian officials closed down one of their Long Island compounds.

Elmcroft, one of the Russian's two Long Island estates, is seen on Friday as movers frantically load vans with boxes.

The Russians had until noon on Friday to get out of their Maryland and New York compounds before the State Department took custody.

Vladimir Putin is preparing a suprise for the US

A new chapter in the fight against terrorism is now upon the world. The world will witness Cold War era style diplomacy before Obama hands over to Trump.

obama is a beast

Trump praises 'very smart' Putin for not expelling U.S. diplomats in wake ofObama's sanctions for election-year 'hacking'.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

You sound so pained. Btw if truly Russia hacked the DNC files then am glad they did. Washington ought to feel the same heat they send to other countries.

Two up for Russia

Don't ask me for the first one

You are wasting your time on these people, some of them think a whole US president over reacted on a report from CIA and FBI that undermine the security of the entire country. Russia do not just have hand in the hacking, Russia state government surpervise these hackings, 1 billion yahoo emails, olympic data base for drug tests, democrat system, etc.

So, US spend billions of dollars on security but can't outsmart Russia that spend only millions of dollars
Overrated US
But the same US hacked Germany and more than 20 countries president phones and now Russia outsmarted them
Don't you just love Russia
Putin will always outsmart the US presidents

If your mother's man friend is stronger than your father, you will be forced to address him as daddy ..#Fayose

Putin is their daddy and there's nothing Obama the sore loser can do about it than keep disgracing himself.

Russian government should ensure those diplomats and their families are airlifted safely to russia cos a lot of shi.ts has been happening since their intervention in Syria and decimation of ISIS.

How old are you? Putin outsmart the US? Be aware that the US have more than enough details of Putin deals and secrets, not just that the entire world. Putin himself know this and smart people know this. Throughout today, analysts/experts on diplomatic issues have discussed the possibility of the US killing Putin current rating with those details, but few have argued that it will alert the world to how much US government have or know about each nation, especially with Edward Snowden recent revelation.

The US spends over $500 billion every year on security, when Russia economy was good, they were spending about $50 billion and you think they have more arsenal than the US? People like you have no idea.

Make I laugh small
Yet they are afraid of Putin
CNN and BBC don brainwash you
Keep it up
And Putin don't have US details abi ??
Russia will always outsmart US
Deal with that

When Two Elephants Fights ( Usa & Russia ), The Grass ( Syria & Co ) Bear The Consequences,
