Rusia anunță închiderea consulatului german din Sankt Petersburg ca răspuns la tensiunile cu Berlinul
Russia announced the closure of the German consulate in St. Petersburg in response to Germany's decision to shut down the Russian consulate in Bonn. The Russian Foreign Ministry set a deadline for the German consulate to cease operations by September 18. This move follows the discovery of an explosive-laden drone at Leipzig airport, which Germany attributed to a terrorist attempt by Russia. Moscow had previously announced the closure of German cultural centers and summoned the German chargé d'affaires, condemning anti-Russian actions by German authorities. The tensions escalated after Germany accused Russia of terrorism, prompting further retaliatory measures from Moscow.
