Moscow-Sana
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that the Montenegrin authorities' expulsion of a Russian diplomat from its territory was a "baseless and illogical" measure.
The RIA Novosti news agency quoted Zakharova as saying in today's comment: "On August 12, the Montenegrin Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that one of the diplomatic staff of the Russian Embassy in Podgorica had become persona non grata... and tried to justify this step through a public comment without explaining the reasons and logic of this step. Emphasizing that the Russian side leaves itself the right to respond appropriately to that.
And Zakharova continued: “We consider this attack by the Montenegrin authorities as another periodic episode of the hybrid campaign launched by the West and its followers against Russia... We see in this the unwillingness of these authorities to depart from the policy of blindly following this destructive line at the expense of international security and cooperation as well as national interests. subjectivity.”
