The expulsion of Russian diplomats from Finland is associated with the interests of NATO cells under the control of the United States. This was stated on Thursday by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, on the air of the Live Solovyov television channel, Russian state media reports.
“This is not done because it is necessary for Helsinki or the Finnish people, it needs to be” natural “or even inside the NATO cells that are controlled by the United States of America, and directly to Washington, and, I think, to London, because Northern Europe is traditionally the patrimony of control, so to speak, foggy Albion, ”she believes.
Zakharova is sure that the West is not interested in “the foreign countries of the Russian Federation to build relations with compatriots.” “And this is not such a special relationship, these are the relations of support and help to people who either lived historically there, or are now there for completely different reasons: someone teaches, someone is studying, someone has a family”, – believes the diplomat.
Earlier, the Finland Foreign Ministry notified the temporary attorney in Russia’s affairs of the expulsion of nine employees of the embassy in Helsinki. This was reported to the Finnish foreign policy on Twitter. The Russian diplomatic mission said that Moscow would give an appropriate answer to this.
