LONDON -- Moscow was selected Wednesday to host the semifinals and finals of the Fed Cup.

Moscow beat a Belgian bid to hold the finals, which start Nov. 17 and will be played indoors at Olympic Stadium. The Russian capital was unanimously chosen.

The United States will play Belgium and Russia will face France in the best-of-five semifinals.

The International Tennis Federation cited Moscow's performance in hosting the 1995 Davis Cup final and the annual Kremlin Cup. The Russian bid is subject to the signing of an agreement with a promoter.
