“The situation has actually worsened recently, and in connection with this, at our request, the Turkish authorities have taken additional security measures,” RIA Novosti quoted the press officer of the diplomatic mission Irina Kasimova as saying.
In her opinion, threats in social networks are unlikely to be followed by real actions.
“But we still have to reckon with this,” she added.
Earlier, Yerkhov said that he received threats on Turkish social networks.
