Moscow expels group of Hungarian diplomats in tit-for-tat move
Russia has ordered the expulsion of a group of Hungarian diplomats from Moscow, describing the move as a reciprocal measure. The decision follows a similar expulsion of Russian diplomats by Hungary, and marks a further deterioration in relations between Moscow and Budapest, which had until recently maintained comparatively close ties within the EU and NATO.
Why now: Hungary's expulsion of Russian diplomats prompted this reciprocal response, straining an unusually close bilateral relationship during heightened EU-Russia tensions.
