Russia expels Hungarian diplomats in tit-for-tat move
Russia has ordered the expulsion of Hungarian diplomats, in what it describes as a reciprocal response to earlier expulsions by Budapest. The move further strains relations between Moscow and Hungary, an EU and NATO member that has maintained unusually close ties with the Kremlin. Details on the number of diplomats involved and the exact timeline have not been confirmed.
Why now: The diplomatic escalation between Russia and a EU/NATO member is newsworthy amid ongoing Russia-West tensions.
