UK Revokes Accreditation of Russian Diplomat in London
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain on Thursday summoned the Russian ambassador to London for a meeting with a senior British official to revoke the accreditation of a Russian diplomat.
"This is in response to Russia's unprovoked and baseless decision to strip the accreditation of a British diplomat in Moscow in November," the Foreign Office said in a statement.
"Any further action taken by Russia will be considered an escalation and responded to accordingly."
