“What we see now is a gross violation of the Convention on Diplomatic Relations
and the Convention on Consular Relations,”
“The Russian side did not agree on stripping diplomatic status from our property in Seattle.
We did not give permission to American officials to enter our territory.”
The spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, called the development “a hostile takeover” of the compound by the US.
The diplomatic building was evacuated earlier this week due to an order from Washington,
which expelled 60 Russian diplomats and told the embassy to shut down the Seattle consulate
in retaliation for the poisoning of a former double agent in Britain.
