The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs opposes and retaliates against a German court sentenced to life imprisonment to a Russian man accused of murder and announced a policy to expel two Russian diplomats. He emphasized that he would take steps.
On the 15th, a German court committed a crime against a Russian man who had been accused of murder in a man shot dead in Berlin on the 15th at the request of Russian authorities. However, after pointing out that it was a terrorist attack by the state, he sentenced him to life imprisonment.
In response, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the 16th, claiming that it was a "extremely biased and clearly politically-characterized decision," and said that "Russian state agencies were involved in the case." I categorically reject unfounded criticism. "
He said he was "deeply disappointed" that the German government announced a policy to expel two Russian diplomats in response to the ruling, and emphasized that he would take appropriate retaliation measures.
"It's unpleasant, but it won't affect the outlook for the dialogue between President Putin and the new German Prime Minister," said Peskov, a spokesman for the Russian Presidential Administration.
