E.U. Chief Likens Alleged Russian Drone Plot to ‘Terrorism’
Wadephul announced retaliatory measures, relaying that Germany intends to close the Russian consulate in Bonn from Sep. 18. The lease for the Russian House in Berlin, an institute showcasing Russian culture, will be terminated.
There will also be tighter entry controls for Russian nationals and additional pressure will be placed on Moscow’s shadow fleet.
Russia has denied responsibility for the drone plot.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said that no evidence for the allegations had been presented, and that “under a completely far-fetched and far-fetched pretext, Berlin has once again escalated bilateral relations,” according to Russian state news agency TASS.
In response to the retaliatory actions taken by Germany, Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko told reporters Wednesday that Moscow “will respond as we deem necessary, when we are ready for it.”
This came after Russian President Vladimir Putin called the German response a “grave mistake” that “clearly runs counter to the interests of the German people,” according to TASS reporting.
