- The Russian Foreign Ministry pointed to efforts to return the Russian woman from Mexico.
Russian diplomats are making every possible effort to free a minor Russian citizen in Mexico. This was announced on April 22 by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
"Our embassy and our diplomats in Mexico are doing everything necessary, possible, and generally doing everything <...> to assist a minor Russian citizen in this situation," Zakharova was quoted as saying by TASS.
She noted that efforts are being made together with the central office of the Ministry, with Maria Lvova-Belova, Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President of the Russian Federation, and Anna Kuznetsova, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma.
The representative of the Foreign Ministry promised to promptly share new information as it becomes available.
The day before, the Russian Foreign Ministry summoned the Mexican Ambassador to Moscow, Eduardo Villegas Mejias. During the conversation, the diplomat informed about the investigative interview of Kristina Romanova, which took place on April 17 in the presence of employees of the consular department of the Russian Embassy in Mexico City. The ministry noted that the expressed and written wish of the girl imposes on Mexico increased responsibility for the safety and health of Romanova before and after her coming of age on May 15, 2026.
Zakharova reported on April 16 that the Mexican ambassador had been summoned to the ministry, where he was seriously concerned about the situation surrounding Kristina Romanova, who was being held in the Latin American country.
On April 15, the Russian Embassy in Mexico informed Izvestia that the situation with Kristina Romanova was under special control. The diplomatic mission added that the continued detention in an institution of a person who is not detained, arrested or convicted appears to be legally groundless by all legal canons.
