Just went through this. Send his completed visa application, passport,
photos, payment info, etc., by express mail to a US agency who obtains
Russian visas & have them express mail passport with visa in it back to
France. We used PVS International in Rosslyn, VA. Website is
pvsinternational.org. Good luck.
