(ANSA) - MOSCOW, 18 OCT - The operation of the NATO information office in Moscow will be closed in retaliation for the Alliance's decision to revoke the accreditation of eight officials of the Russian mission to the Alliance.
This was announced by Foreign Minister Serghei Lavrov, quoted by TASS.
"The operation of the NATO information office in Moscow, set up at the embassy of the Kingdom of Belgium, will be closed. If NATO has any urgent questions, it can contact our ambassador to Belgium," Lavrov said.
At the same time, Moscow will suspend its mission to NATO.
