Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, 443 Russian diplomats have been deported by countries around the world

It notes that this step demonstrates solidarity with Ukraine and continues efforts to strengthen the global isolation of the Russian Federation.

“By expelling diplomats, partner countries have responded to the destructive espionage activities of Russian diplomats. The West has hit Russia’s ability to pursue aggressive policies, undermine peace and security in Europe and disrupt support for Ukraine, “the statement said.

It says Russian diplomats have been spreading propaganda for years, trying to distort reality and hide the true face of the Kremlin. The expulsion of diplomats is a direct response of a democratic society to the crimes of the Russian regime, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry stressed, calling on partner countries to “put maximum pressure on the Russian Federation to end its barbaric war against Ukraine”.
