“This is not in our tradition. Therefore, we believe that the work of diplomatic missions is important”, - Grushko answered a question from journalists about whether Moscow plans to close diplomatic missions in Europe in response to the expansion of sanctions (quoted by RIA Novosti).
“We didn’t start a diplomatic war, a campaign of expulsions”, - added the deputy head of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
