Russia expels British diplomat over spying claims – POLITICO
· POLITICORussia expelled a British diplomat after accusing him of espionage Tuesday, its Federal Security Service (FSB) announced.
The move — branded “baseless” by the British government — marks the latest tit-for-tat amid mounting tensions over the war in Ukraine.
A statement from the FSB accused a senior British diplomat at the Moscow embassy of “deliberately giving false information in obtaining an entry permit to our country, thereby violating Russian law.”
