It is noted that these actions are mirror “in response to the provocative action” of Prague, which was “unfounded”. According to the Foreign Ministry, the expulsion of the Czech Republic of two Russian diplomats is the “Line to Exacerbation of Relations” with Russia at the state policy level.

Earlier, in the Czech Republic, two employees of the Russian embassy were declared by persons of Non-Gart due to the alleged attempt on the mayor of Prague Zdenek Grzhibu, as well as to the head of the administrative district of Prague-6 Old Razhzheya Kolarzha. At the end of April, the Czech publication of Respekt, citing sources, published a text that stated that an employee with a diplomatic passport flew from Russia to the country, who supposedly had poison for an attempt on the mayor of Prague and the head of the administrative district of Prague-6. This man allegedly flew to the Vaclav Gavel Airport in Prague with diplomatic documents.

From the day of arrival of this man, the Czech special services took the guards of Grzhib and Kolarzha. It was noted that Kolarzh was one of the initiators of the demolition of the monument to the Russian Marshal Ivan Konev. The mayor of Prague, in turn, appropriated the name of Boris Nemtsov in front of the Russian embassy.
