‘Fearing provocations’: Russia has pulled some diplomatic staff from Ukraine

Russia said Saturday it has pulled some of its diplomatic staff out of Ukraine for fear of ‘provocations’ from Kyiv or its allies amid mounting warnings of a possible Russian invasion of its neighbour.

‘We have decided to optimise staffing at Russian missions in Ukraine, fearing possible provocations from the Kyiv regime or other countries,’ Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a press statement in response to a media question on the subject.
