Попадание в этот список скажется в первую очередь на работе дипломатических представительств этих стран — для них ограничивается возможность нанимать на работу местный персонал.

Согласно распоряжению, посольство Чехии может брать на работу на территории России 19 человек, а США — ни одного.

In the published list, there are no other countries, except for the Czech Republic and the USA. Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that the limited list of unfriendly states "underlines Moscow's readiness for dialogue."

Министерство иностранных дел Чехии заявило, что решение РФ внести страну в такой список — это эскалация отношений не только с Чехией, но и со всем Европейским Союзом (ЕС).

The fact that the United States will be on the list of "unfriendly" states, the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova announced at the end of April.

«Остальные государства вы узнаете, когда распоряжение правительства будет опубликовано и соответствующий список появится в доступе», — добавила Захарова.

On April 23, the Russian president signed a decree according to which states "committing unfriendly actions" against Russia will be restricted in their right to hire Russian citizens.

The President also provided for the possibility of a complete ban on the employment of Russians in the embassies of such states: if it is introduced, they will be able to provide their work only at the expense of their own citizens.

Diplomatic conflict with the Czech Republic

The Czech authorities accused the Russian special services of involvement in an explosion at an ammunition depot in 2014. On the day of the explosion, alleged GRU officers, known as Ruslan Boshirov and Alexander Petrov, were in the Czech Republic.

The Czech Republic declared 18 Russian diplomats persona non grata, while Moscow expelled 20 Czech diplomats in response.

Later, the Czech Republic demanded that the Russian embassy in Prague reduce its staff to the number of Czech diplomats remaining in Moscow by the end of May. Czech Foreign Minister Jakub Kulganek said that 63 employees of the Russian embassy would be expelled from the country.

Russia also demanded "to reduce the number of members of the Czech Embassy in Moscow, taking into account the significant disparity in the category of those received locally," that is, employees with Russian citizenship.

First Deputy Prime Minister of the Czech Republic Jan Hamacek, commenting on Moscow's decision to include the Czech Republic in the list of "unfriendly" countries, said that such actions by Russia confirm that Prague acted correctly in the Vrbetice case.
