The department said that “they got acquainted with the decision of the commission to refuse a trip to Moscow and took it into account”.

“In no way calling into question the right of the Dutch parliamentarians to their opinion, at the same time, we regret that for the second time in a row since the fall of 2018, on their own initiative, they are closing the window of opportunity to resume dialogue with their colleagues in the State Duma on issues of mutual interest” , - RIA Novosti quotes the message of the embassy.

They added to the diplomatic mission that they had repeatedly warned their colleagues both in Moscow and in The Hague, "that all responsibility for the negative consequences of such a step rests entirely with the Netherlands."

Earlier it became known that the delegation of the Dutch parliament canceled a visit to Russia, which was scheduled for February, after one of the deputies was denied entry to Russia.
