Lynne Tracy, the first woman ever to hold the role, was accosted by protesters as she headed into the Russian Foreign Ministry on the first day of her new job.
The new U.S. ambassador to Russia received a frosty welcome on her first day on the job, when she was heckled with anti-American slogans by protesters in Moscow on Monday.
The group chanted slogans and brandished hand-painted signs criticizing Washington. According to Reuters, one of the signs read:"Your tanks are killing civilians." Tracy did not look at, or acknowledge, the protesters standing just feet from her as she walked the short distance into the building.
