The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iceland announced on Friday that it has decided to suspend operations of the Embassy of Iceland in Moscow from August 1.
"Furthermore, Iceland has requested that Russia limit the operations of its Embassy in Reykjavik, in line with article 11 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, and that the level of diplomatic representation be lowered," the ministry said in a statement.
The statement specified that the decision came as "the current situation simply does not make it viable for the small foreign service of Iceland to operate an embassy in Russia," and "does not constitute a severance of diplomatic relations."
"As soon as conditions permit, Iceland will prioritize the resumption of operations of the Embassy of Iceland in Moscow," it added.
