3-year Tourist Visa: Separate invitations needed for each visit?

+1 vote
There is already a question in this forum asking about this topic, but hasn't been answered yet.
As a U.S citizen holding a 3-year tourist visa, should a new visa support invitation letter be obtained for each separate visit into the country? For example, I am going to Russia for two weeks in October, 2017 and already have the invitation letter with 3-year visa. Let's say, I plan to visit again during April, 2018... and again the following June - each for two week visits. A new invitation support letter for each journey?

No, you just need one letter of invitation for a short duration, but then you apply for a long visa and in that case you'll have a visa for 3 years.
