US media representatives accredited in Russia visited the Russian Foreign Ministry on Monday and were given an ultimatum to Washington to "change its attitude" toward Russian journalists in the United States.

He and his colleagues were warned of possible retaliatory measures if Washington "does not change its attitude" toward Russian journalists working in the United States, according to Alhurra TV, the chief correspondent of the American television company.

"We have been given three months so far. If the attitude toward Russian media in Washington does not change, there will surely be some kind of response," said Feras Almardini.
