THE Russia called her ambassador today Britain regarding Moscow’s claim that British Royal Navy personnel are mixed in the Ukrainian attack with drone against the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Crimea.
Ambassador Deborah Bronnert arrived shortly after 10:30 (local time, 09:30 Greek time) at the Foreign Office as a small crowd chanted anti-British slogans and held placards reading ‘Britain is a terrorist state’.
Bronnert remained for about 30 minutes inside the ministry, a Reuters reporter at the scene said. There was no immediate statement from either the Russian or the British side on the details of what was discussed.
The representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharova had stated yesterday, Wednesday, that the ambassador was going to be summoned regarding the attack that took place on Saturday with unmanned aerial vehicle in Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014 from Ukraine.
Britain maintains that the charges are false. After the drone attack, Russia temporarily suspended its participation in the grain export agreement through the Black Sea, which had been concluded with the mediation of the UN.
Russia’s Defense Ministry has claimed that members of Britain’s Royal Navy blew up the Nord Stream gas pipelines, an allegation that London has said is false and aimed at distracting attention from Russian military failures in Ukraine.
