“The situation when two employees of the Russian Embassy in Berlin were declared personae non grata based on suspicions that Russia allegedly was involved in the murder of a Georgian citizen is clearly an unfriendly step,” said Leonid Slutskiy Slutsky Leonid Eduardovich Slutsky

“It is a sort of “highly likely” campaign in the Skripals poisoning case launched in the UK in 2018.

It is just another example of anti-Russian hysteria,” the parliamentarian said.
