Zakharova called Darichev a top-class professional.
Alexander Darchiev, the Russian Ambassador to the United States, who passed away, was a top-class professional and never succumbed to a serious illness. Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, said this at the farewell ceremony for the diplomat on November 14.
"Alexander Nikitich was a top-class professional, a man who deeply knew the business he was engaged in, and brilliantly mastered the tools. He was a real mentor for a huge number of young diplomats," she said.
According to Zakharova, Darchiev combined high professionalism with the best human qualities and remained devoted to his profession to the end.
"Alas, he has a serious illness, a chronic illness, but at the same time, as long as I have seen him, he has never succumbed to this disease and has always performed his duties with honor and high professionalism," the diplomat added.
The farewell ceremony for Alexander Darchiev is taking place in the funeral hall of the Central Clinical Hospital of the Office of the President of the Russian Federation in Moscow.
Darchiev's death from a chronic illness became known on November 11. On the same day, Zakharova said that Russia was receiving a large number of condolences in connection with the incident. By that time, they had been expressed at the United Nations, and the same was sent by the representative of the US Congress, Anna Paulina Luna, who called the deceased a patriot who honorably represented the interests of Russia.
The hereditary diplomat was born on May 14, 1960 in Budapest (Hungarian People's Republic). From 1983 to 1992, Darchiev worked at the Institute of the USA and Canada of the USSR Academy of Sciences, first as a graduate student, then as a junior and senior researcher. He joined the diplomatic service in 1992.
