Russia will respond in kind to the mass expulsions of its diplomats from Berlin, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced today.
“The German authorities have decided on another mass deportation of employees of Russian diplomatic missions in Germany. We categorically condemn these actions by Berlin, which continue to damage the entire spectrum of Russian-German relations,” the ministry said, without disclosing the number of diplomats being expelled.
Relations between Moscow and Berlin, which has been the biggest buyer of Russian oil and gas, have soured since Russia sent troops to invade Ukraine in February 2022 and the West responded with sanctions.
“As a reaction to Berlin’s hostile actions, the Russian side has decided to respond in kind by expelling German diplomats from Russia, as well as significantly limiting the maximum number of employees in German diplomatic missions in our country,” the ministry announced.
