    Russian Thuggery: Continue Slapping

    Baltics expel Russian diplomats in solidarity with Prague

    Fri, April 23, 2021, 7:37 PM

    VILNIUS, Lithuania (AP) — The three Baltic countries on Friday ordered the expulsion of a total of four Russian diplomats as an act of solidarity with the Czech Republic, where scores of diplomats have been expelled since Saturday over the alleged involvement of Russian spies in a massive ammunition depot explosion in 2014.

    Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis said two embassy staff had been declared persona non grata “because they had carried out activities incompatible with their diplomatic status.” They were given seven days to leave Lithuania.

    On Twitter, the Estonian Foreign Ministry said its single expulsion was related to the the 2014 explosion, saying it “violates international law, undermines European security & stability and is unacceptable.” Latvian Foreign Minister Edgars Rinkevics said that Latvia has decided to expel a Russian diplomat because the country “will not tolerate subversive activities on its soil or that of its partners and allies.”

    On Thursday, the Czech Republic ordered 63 more Russian diplomats to leave the country after previously expelling 18 whom it had identified as spies in a case related to the huge blast.

    Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia — all former Soviet republics — broke away from the Soviet Union three decades ago and joined NATO and the EU in 2004. They are among the Kremlin’s harshest critics.

    This makes the invasion of Iraq look like a jamboree.

    Here we go with the whataboutism and false equivalencies.

    But two can play that game. Russia killed at least as many if not more in its two wars in Chechnya. Not to mention the false flag invasions of Georgia and Ukraine.

    The thread is about Russian thuggery so stop desperately trying to drag it off-topic.

    We have some adult threads covering these issues. We don't need a cheap TC pile on thread.

    You forgot the part where checks demanded that Russia send their embassy employees back.

    Obviously Russia had more diplomatic staff than the other way around because it's a way bigger country. Not all Czechs are for this pathetic Russophobic nonsense. The former president said it was ridiculous and they are being fodder for the US

    Stop lying snub, you are making a fool of yourself again. No wonder you are such a patsy for even your governments most outrageous propaganda- you simply do not know the difference between truth and delusion. (Hint- the Truth is when you get Butthurt, boohoo).

    Oh for joy, the Sage of 'first world Bangkok' has deemed it worthy of posting it's usual pointless single digit word combo. Mere words cannot express our gratitude.

    Actually, according official figures (not mentioned by the state Russian-phob propaganda) the Czechs have more people in Moscow than the Russians in Prague.

    Even the incumbent president is of that opinion. He repeatedly refused to promote to general the head of the Czech NSA, despite (or because) he was decorated not so long ago in high floors at Langley...
    And he (the head of Czech NSA) is the one who came after 7 years with this story, supported by Bellingcat...)
