We have not received any official announcements regarding your questions however we have been told since the war with Ukraine that new Russian applicants will not be processed, but those already with citizenship can have their passports renewed if they have expired. With regards to Russians traveling to the USA, one of my Russian clients who obtained citizenship of St Kitts back in 2012 has recently been granted a green card by the USA government so I’m also confused with these allegations about the ban of Russians, which leads me to assume it can only be in reference to new Russian applicants.
