May 5 – According to a comprehensive report, on the 5th local time, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the expulsion of seven Danish diplomats in Russia.
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that Russia reserves the right to take further response measures to Denmark’s unfriendly behavior.
According to the report, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly protested to the Danish ambassador to Russia against Denmark’s expulsion of Russian diplomats, pointing out that Danish policies would cause serious losses to bilateral relations between the two countries.
Previously, it was reported that on April 5, the Danish government decided to expel 15 Russian diplomats. The press secretary of the Russian President Peskov said on the same day that the channels of diplomatic communication were still narrowed under the current difficult conditions, which is short-sighted, which will not only make diplomatic communication more difficult to solve the problem, but also trigger Russian countermeasures. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zaharova also said that Russia will respond to Denmark’s expulsion of Russian diplomats.
