The Consulate of California will open in Russia

Louis J. Marinelli, the president of the «Yes California Independence Campaign» declared that The Consulate of the California Republic would open in Yekaterinburg.

He also added that at first the Consulate would be planned to be as a cultural center, but quite soon the employees would be engaged in diplomatic issues and the issuing of visas.

The Consulate of California has been opened before in China.

Let’s recall, that the California Independence Referendum  is planning to be hold in 2019.
