Russian Foreign Ministry to prepare a response to NATO's decision to expel Russian diplomats

NATO's decision to expel eight Russian diplomats and revoke the accreditation of two more will not go unanswered, Moscow will prepare an appropriate decision. This was announced by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.

Speaking at the briefing, Zakharova said that NATO's recent actions have shown the alliance's unwillingness and unwillingness to conduct a dialogue with Russia. The Russian Foreign Ministry will decide on retaliatory measures against NATO on this basis. The Foreign Ministry spokeswoman assured that retaliatory measures will follow without fail.

The unwillingness of NATO and NATO members to interact has become definitively and irrevocably obvious. We will proceed from this in our response, and they will follow.

- said Zakharova.

The Russian foreign ministry considers NATO's decision to cut Russian representation in the alliance "ludicrous," especially after their constant calls for a resumption of dialogue and interaction, as well as the revival of NATO-Russia Council meetings. According to Zakharova, NATO says one thing, but does something completely different.

Recall that the day before, the alliance made a decision to expel eight Russian diplomats from the Russian mission to NATO, as well as to deprive two more employees of the mission of permanent accreditation. Thus, NATO is reducing the Russian representation to 10 people.

As NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg later stated, the expulsion of Russian diplomats was not connected with any specific events, but in general with "Russian malicious activity." NATO received intelligence that the expelled officers were Russian intelligence officers. At the same time, according to the Alliance Secretary General, NATO is ready for dialogue with Moscow and calls on Russia to resume the meetings of the Russia-NATO Council.

Wow, but all NATO members are "white and fluffy", with one proviso that there is nowhere to put brands ...

I wanted to say that all of Russia is engaged in activities harmful to the United States, but I bit my tongue

... NATO received intelligence that the expelled officers were Russian intelligence officers.

You might think that there are no intelligence officers in the American embassies! )))

Thus, NATO is reducing the Russian representation to 10 people.

So up to 10 people or FOR 10 people? And then some sources write that "the people are demanding to send 300 Russian diplomats-spies"))))))))) Directly 300 Spartans against NATO!

In the old days, in Germany, in the occupation zones, there were so-called communications missions, I do not know what kind of "communications" they supported there, but that it was a LEGAL intelligence mission, everyone knew that. One of them in my regiment was even shot ... So that Ståhlberg discovered the open secret

One of them in my shelf even shot ...

Yes, they were told "where to go", and they were already to the Americans, although they had already been notified by the driver of the car in which this major arrived. Their connection was well established. The major did not die right away, he managed to run to the car and was already dying near it. The driver first yanked out of the car, but did not dare to disobey the command: "Stop! I will shoot.", Sentry sergeant. And he didn't try to leave.
So their chief mission officer arrived quickly, and then a helicopter from the Group flew in for the body ...
And if you're interested, read about the death of the American Major Nicholson in the GDR

Only one clarification, the same Americans, for some reason indicate the town of Ludwigslust as the place of the incident, but this is not true. Our motorized rifle regiment was stationed in Ludwig, and my, the 221st separate guards Uman-Pomeranian five-order tank regiment covering the border was located in the village of Tehentin, near Ludwigslust.

The whole incident took place in the forest, on our fire town

300 diplomats are over the hill. The Foreign Ministry scratches the back of its head, thinking about where to recruit them ...

well fellows NATovtsy, otherwise our Foreign Ministry with Masha and kalantaryan somehow didn’t get it that no one in NATO thought about "cooperation", that Nata has completely different goals

[akarfoxhound]

10 is from the Brussels Nata, and 300 - from the "saint" nudentan. Although the mattress duo confused the doublet, diplomats with service personnel

The most adequate response would be to recall ALL Russian permanent representatives to NATO.

cooperation in some forms is even possible with the enemy, if it is beneficial to us
but two points arise:
1.Are we currently gaining any benefit from this dealership?
2. even if the answer is yes, it is necessary to draw lines through which the enemy should not step over. it is a matter of self-respect and, as a consequence, respect for us.

[Seryoga64]

1.Are we currently gaining any benefit from this dealership?

Which one? Yes, they will never do anything that would be useful to Russia

it is necessary to draw lines through which the enemy must not step. it is a matter of self-respect and, as a consequence, respect for us.

The question of not expanding NATO to the East is not enough for you?

any cooperation can only have a mutually beneficial basis.

That is why it is necessary to limit contacts with NATO to a minimum.

It is not my responsibility to give authority.

and as a result of respect for us.

Thus, NATO is reducing the Russian representation to 10 people.

Well, it reduces and it is good, there are also 10 (round figure) employees, but they should also throw out their spies from the Russian Federation, so that the air here is not spoiled and the earth is not trashed.

[Rusticolus]

Moreover, there are 10 people from each country included in NATO.

[210ox]

I wonder how many of them are there? Couldn't a couple slam this shop completely.

[Alf]

Quote: 210ox

Couldn't a couple slam this shop completely.

Sometimes it is more profitable to have known spies than to drive them out and get many, but unknown. Everyone knows that the post of the second cultural attaché belongs to the chief spy, what we have, what they have. This is a classic, as usual.

[vadivm59]

ours do not want to lay off officials, so at least the states will do it.

[210ox]

So they will always find a place here .. Although the scout should be on the front line, and not in the rear

[vadivm59]

what the hell are scouts! here one government figure in an interview said so ... "I spent 5 years in the commission for the reduction of strategic offensive arms ..." he didn’t work, but SITTEN! so they beat these thumbs while sitting in the center of Europe and getting Eureka. and now they will send home, to Moscow, and for salary in rubles. into an ambush !!!

[Aviator_]

Although the scout should be on the front line, not in the rear

Well, yes, there is Masha Chapman (sorry, this is Colombian Mowgli), Anya Chapman, of course, is on the front line - on the TV channel. Earlier, soviet exchanged illegal immigrants (Molodiy, Fischer ...) worked as teachers and consultants in their intelligence offices, and now it is the XNUMXst century.

I myself had such a thought from such news.
If with such NATO / PACE and other non-negotiable structures, they are not solved, then why do you need to pay salaries, accommodation, business trips for years ...
And so, they themselves are not ripe, so the partners helped

[Alexander 3]

The very raison d'être of NATO is confronting the enemy in the person of Russia, formerly the USSR, China. If there is peace between us, what is the point of NATO. Weapons need to be sold to someone, like in World War II. They have it just business.

NATO had nothing to do with China in those days. Fighting Mao was not the "raison d'être" of the bloc, don't talk nonsense.

[Seryoga64]

NATO has received intelligence that the expelled officers are Russian intelligence officers

Are they so white and fluffy?
By the way, "intelligence" is not just another "highley lakley"
It’s not in vain that senators recently called for the expelling of 300 of our diplomats.

[knn54]

-and also deprivation of permanent accreditation of two more employees of the representative office.
Ie ten.
I think that there will still be a dozen of "grant-eating" offices with "ANTI-Russian malicious activity" in Russia.

[salad]

Nata can be famously trolled, recall one of the remaining + one ambassador for consultations for a couple of days, and then return, I am sure that the cap will boil at Nata and all of Europe why they were recalled to MSC))))))

[Petro_tut]

In response to the unfriendly actions of the leadership of NATA Russia, it will reduce its presence in the representative office to 10 people,
Now let your elbows bite ...

[tralflot1832]

I even know Stoppedny's answer, we do not recognize Russia's response and believe that Russia does not have the right to do this. Only we can punish. NATO's doors are always open for the negotiation process for Russia (of course, on NATO terms).

At the same time, according to the alliance secretary general, NATO is ready for dialogue with Moscow and calls on Russia to resume the meetings of the Russia-NATO Council.

What is the request, the answer will be ...

And what do they think accountants should be sent? Those of course not any "Russian malicious activity" will not study ...

[fa2998]

We will not forgive, we will take revenge! We will not tolerate and so on. From the high stands it has already been said that contacts with NATO are minimal, at zero! So why are there a whole platoon of "representatives"? They settled well, but they probably left with their families, and they probably teach their offspring. We have thousands of such officials. And Western countries are probably in "demand." At public expense.

Insolent and without brakes. The talking head looks funny on one side, disgusting on the other. All NATO attachés in Russia are under a double bottom. It is necessary to answer, but is it smart enough, how to answer humiliatingly and beautifully, in our power, well, I don’t know. I would send several heads of attachés, with the same wording, like not a military man, but an intelligence officer. It is necessary to make fun of NATO.

And NATO, de, is not a state. And then do the same with all representatives of unfriendly supranational unions and alliances that will go out. True, then, some of our regular patriots sent to the wild territories of the West will lose their food ..

[nickolai.maliugin]

You don't have to be an analyst to understand one thing: the US is sharpening the spearhead of NATO against Russia. The conversation about 300 diplomats was a signal to the NATO kennel. The US itself will not do anything. Just a test of strength. Europe has not realized for more than 60 years that it is being used. In Europe, they understand the goals of NATO, but they are not at all aware of the goals of the United States in relation to Europe.

[Rostislav]

How will they answer. Hopefully not just by expressing regret ... that so little has been sent.

It would be much more pleasant for me if Zakharova reported on the measures already taken.
But it seems to me that since it is said that "measures WILL BE TAKEN", they will soon, as always, be simply forgotten. It is good at least that they did not "express deep concern."
