(Worthy News) – Russia’s expulsion of 60 US diplomats and shuttering of one of its consulates marks a “further deterioration” in relations between Washington and Moscow, the White House said Thursday.
The US had ordered a similar number of diplomats from Russia to leave and the shuttering of one of its consulates as part of an international effort to isolate the country after an ex-spy and his daughter were poisoned in England in a nerve agent attack blamed on Moscow.
“Russia’s action today to expel American diplomats marks a further deterioration in the United States-Russia relationship,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
