A Number of US citizens - including former and current government personnel and private business People - have already been taken into custody, interrogated and harassed, according to The State Department.
" Russian security services may fail to notify The US Embassy of The detention of a US citizen and unreasonably delay US consular assistance, " The Warning reads. " Russian security services are increasing The arbitrary enforcement of local laws to target foreign and international organisations they consider 'undesirable'. "
In a statement quoted by Russian news agency TASS, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that The US had issued similar warnings " many times".
