Флешмоб "Закрой консульство США"
В ответ на закрытие консульства России в Сиэттле, очевидно же, будет закрыто одно из трех консульств США в России.
Посольство России в США предлагает в Твиттере выбрать, какое консульство США в России закрыть в ответ - во Владивостоке, Екатеринбурге или С-Петербурге. Голосование заканчивается днем 27 марта.

Прямым вызовом Трампу и его администрации назвал американский телеканал CNBC Twitter-опрос, опубликованный российским посольством в Вашингтоне по поводу того, какое из американских консульств закрыть в РФ - во Владивостоке, Екатеринбурге или Санкт-Петербурге.
«Это прямой вызов решению администрации Трампа выслать 60 российских дипломатов и закрыть консульство России в Сиэтле», - говорится в сообщении.

Russia is asking users on President Donald Trump's favorite social media platform for ideas on how to retaliate against the U.S. for expelling 60 diplomats on Monday.
"What US Consulate General would you close" in Russia "if it was up to you to decide," asked the official Twitter handle for Russia's embassy in the U.S.
The query appeared to be a direct challenge to the Trump administration's decision to oust 60 Russian diplomatic officers - and close Russia's consulate in Seattle - over the alleged assassination attempt of an ex-spy in London.
Included in the tweet was an interactive poll asking users to select whether they would shutter the U.S. consulates in Vladivostok, Yekaterinburg or St. Petersburg.

Washington (CNN)The Russian embassy in Washington asked its Twitter followers to vote for which US consulate they'd like to see shuttered Monday, after the Trump administration announced it would close down the Russian consulate in Seattle and expel 60 alleged spies throughout the country.
In the poll, they offer the three US consulate locations in Russia as options: St. Petersburg, Vladivostok and Yekaterinburg.

The US decided to shut down the Seattle consulate because of its proximity to a submarine base, senior administration officials said Monday, and expel the diplomats for "aggressive" intelligence collection. The move is part of an international effort to punish Russia's government for the alleged poisoning of a former Russian spy and his daughter in Great Britain.
The Russian embassy has a history of using humor, sharp rhetoric and the occasional snarky retort on their social media accounts.
Earlier this month, the embassy posted a picture of a helicopter over their building in Northwest DC, writing, "What was American helicopter searching for at the Russian Embassy's premises yesterday night? 'Strange' malfunction of navigation equipment in the center of the US capital? Or another desperate attempt to find traces of #RussianMeddling?"
Late Sunday, the embassy used a post on its Facebook account to call for stability in the US-Russian relationship. The post was titled "Help London. Calm Downing Street," a reference to the address 10 Downing Street, which houses Britain's prime minister.
"Time after time we keep proving that every lunge against us will be parried tit-for-tat," they warn in the post. "Every suggestion to 'punish Russia' is a suggestion to at least self-inflict a wound."
