The lease agreement with the Ukrainian Embassy in Russia has been terminated. This is a response to the decision of the Kyiv City Council of 2023.
In April 2023, the mayor of Kyiv, Vitaliy Klitschko, announced the intention to terminate the lease agreement for the land plot on which the Russian embassy building is located. The Russian Foreign Ministry promised to respond to this outrage. The principle of reciprocity in force in diplomacy presupposes a mirror response to this kind of action. According to information that has reached us, the lease deal has allegedly already been terminated, the agency’s interlocutor said.
