Russia to retaliate against Germany for expelling 2 diplomats - AA

Russia will retaliate against Germany for expelling two Russian diplomats, the country’s Foreign Ministry announced Wednesday.

Berlin’s decision is “unfriendly,” and Russia will give an adequate response soon, said spokeswoman Maria Zakharova in a post on Telegram.

Moscow will soon issue a statement on the matter, she added.

Germany’s decision was linked to a ruling earlier in the day by the Berlin High Court on the murder of a Chechen asylum seeker in Berlin in 2019.
