"I will compete in Guiyang if at all I get selected. The hardest part is for me to secure the ticket from the explosive Kenyan trials. Thereafter, I believe running in the world cross will not be so hard," she said.
MOSCOW, Sept. 1 (Xinhua) -- Russia should work toward attaining symmetry in the exchange of "diplomatic niceties" with the United States following Washington's decision to close the Russian Consulate General in San Francisco, a senior Russian official said Friday.
"What's to be done? In case of an exchange of diplomatic niceties it's important to work toward full symmetry.

The tit-for-tat action came after Russian President Vladimir Putin in July asked the United States to reduce the number of diplomatic personnel in Russia by 755, in response to U.S. sanctions on Russia over its alleged intervention in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
