The Russian government made a strong-handed warning about travel risks to western countries (specifically during winter holidays). Maria Zakharova from Foreign Ministry told that US-Russia relations are now super-bad and close to breaking point

- United States
- Canada
- Most EU countries with few exclusions
Russian and US diplomats say things are worse than during Cuban crisis back in 62. Last month situation got real bad when Ukraine used US-made missiles to hit Russian land; Moscow changed its nuclear rules as response
