Moscow will respond to this in a mirror image.

Of course, we must answer in a mirror-like manner ... there should be no exceptions ... our partners are too impudent when their pranks are forgiven.
Our Foreign Ministry needs to react harder ... do not forget to impose sanctions on the organizers of these pranks.

Or maybe our special services have just become more unprofessional to work because of the poor training of operational officers? However, one should not forget that in the era of total control it is becoming more and more difficult to hide the work of operational officers abroad, which is why the number of expelled diplomats will grow, and you just need to accept this, and not look for some kind of order. Well, as a counterbalance to this, it is necessary to further subsidize the development of technical means of intelligence, which, in terms of efficiency, many times exceed the capabilities of undercover workers.

the key word - I will not be surprised. for there are reasons, and are only growing in quantitative and "qualitative" terms, for the actions of the collective West. bulk case and cited. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the level of work and professionalism of the Russian Federation intelligence officers in diplomatic uniform.

[Shurik70]

Well, they announced - and announced.
We will answer "mirrored" - and everyone will forget (unless the incident is specially inflated).
Diplomats in another country are by definition collecting data. And if they manage to grab something serious, they will not miss it.
So it's a working moment.

It happens ... but the Austrian goes there too. There are unwritten rules to follow ...

We need to think about why this is happening, who runs this anti-Russian company

Before you had to think about who and why. Played into "correct" international relations, moral standards and honesty. We are on the snout - we are about violation of international diplomatic norms, our property is impudently taken away - we have been thinking for half a year how to answer so as not to offend ... It is high time to play according to the rules set by the West - the absence of any rules and decency, but only exclusively own benefit and inflicting tangible losses on the enemy.

[A. Privalov]

The Kronen Zeitung reported that the Russian diplomat for the first time in the history of the country recognized as persona non grata.
According to the publication,

... the diplomat is suspected of many years of industrial espionage in favor of Russia in one of the high-tech Austrian companies. He was allegedly assisted in this by an Austrian citizen, who reported on the alleged activities of the diplomat, and during the relevant court proceedings the Austrian named him his curator.

In turn, according to the publication,

... the Russian refused to testify, citing diplomatic immunity.

Question: why communicate with representatives of quasi-states

[Rzzz]

The qualifications of spies are rapidly declining. Shtrlitz and Count Tulevs are no longer trained, major ones remain on Gelenvagens. And what's the use of such ..

Stirlitz also rode a Mercedes, it was just that Heliks were not released then.

Guys! Why go to the Austrian embassy ??? What country ?? Send everyone home

[iouris]

Austria is an important country. Leadership was sent to Austria.

[Mik1701]

Austria was the most loyal European country in relation to Russia ...

[iouris]

What do you mean by "loyalty of a European country" towards Russia? Austria is a member of the EU, the EU is a colonization organization.

Putin was greeted there as something with honors and sincerely .. Even to the wedding was invited and in my opinion he even came .. And then suddenly such a sharp turn.

The personal relationship of European politicians with Putin means nothing. Whoever did not understand this, did not understand anything.

"....Austria expels Russian diplomat... .... "
=========
So another Austrian diplomat in Russia will be less......
(....the Russian Foreign Ministry said that it was outraged by the unfounded decision of the Austrian authorities, Moscow will respond to this in a mirror...).

Austria is not included in NATO!
19.08.2018/2018/XNUMX, Putin was at the wedding of the Austrian Foreign Minister - Karin Kneissl, danced with her. And already in November XNUMX, a scandal erupted. Austrian Foreign Ministry accused Russia of espionage. Less than two years later, the same thing happened again. Maybe he stepped on her foot in fright, looking at her face.

[Kefir]

It seems that Austria has always treated Russia in a neutral way, even sympathized with Putin a little .. Something strange.

In Western countries, there is little that depends on the first person. Although a parliamentary republic, of which the majority, even after the model of Germany, Austria, even the United States. You have already noticed that in none of this country is it possible to make any decisions with anyone; there, no one is responsible for anything. Today they will sign an agreement, an agreement, and tomorrow they will throw it into the trash can.

The most important thing is who is the organizer and why such an attack in Russia now? This can also be answered asymmetrically.

And what kind of military-industrial secrets does a state called Austria have?

Hmm, in the army there is no word lost.
There is another word, you get the idea.
This specialist has lost, it means that he studied poorly.
Send to work in the agricultural sector, so that the service does not seem like honey.

[Lew]

high technology in Austria? is the bend of the snowboard high technology?
