“Given the unacceptable expressions addressed to the head of state by the official representative of Russian diplomacy, the Foreign Ministry ordered to call the Russian ambassador to Moldova Oleg Vasnetsov,” RIA Novosti quoted Voda as saying.
On April 19, Moldovan President Maia Sandu approved a ban on the St. George ribbon, previously approved by parliament.
The Moldovan police have warned that they will punish all citizens who wear the St. George ribbon both on Victory Day and at any other time.
Zakharova during the briefing called the ban on the St. George ribbon in Moldova a betrayal.
