PRAGUE (Reuters) – Slovakia has ordered Russia’s embassy to cut its staff by 35, a foreign ministry spokesperson said on Wednesday, citing unacceptable activity by another Russian diplomat.
The aim of the move is to “set a maximum number of diplomatic and service passport holders at this (Russian) mission,” Juraj Tomaga said in a statement.
On March 14, Slovakia expelled three Russian embassy staff based on secret service information.
