Russia-West Row: Russia warns its citizens traveling to the UK of provocations
[]
The Russian Embassy in London has issued a warning for its citizens traveling to the United Kingdom. It says Russians could face provocations, including the insertion of foreign objects into their luggage.
The embassy also published a list of 14 questions to the UK concerning the Salisbury poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter. It demanded to know why France was involved and relevant in investigations, as well as why Russia was denied consular access to the Skripals. Meanwhile, Canberra is also warning Australian travellers in Russia of the risk of "anti-Western sentiment or harassment". Australia had expelled two Russian diplomats following the UK, and Moscow responded with a tit-for-tat move on Friday.
