De ce Rusia vrea ca ambasadele străine să plece din Kiev și de ce acestea rămân
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the decision regarding the safety of diplomats in Ukraine rests with the U.S., following Russian warnings. Russia's Foreign Ministry expressed concern over foreign embassies operating in Kyiv, while Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov reiterated that Ukraine's actions have escalated tensions. The EU and various member states affirmed their commitment to remain in Kyiv, viewing the presence of embassies as a crucial political signal. The ongoing diplomatic presence is seen as a recognition of Ukraine's sovereignty and resilience against Russian aggression. A mass exodus of diplomats would symbolize a significant victory for Russia, undermining Ukraine's international support.
