I feel like using Russia as an example of the standard US diplomat experience is probably misleading. I suppose I wouldn’t be surprised if similar things happened in South American or African embassies, but a combination of our history with Russia and its general temperament has got to make it a one of the places most prone to this sort of non-direct fucking with people.
