Excerpt:
Romania on Wednesday ordered two Russian diplomats expelled, after slamming Russian “interference” and criticism of an indictment of far-right presidential candidate Calin Georgescu.
Russia’s military attache and his deputy in Bucharest were declared “persona non grata” by Foreign Ministry of Romania, which is a NATO member country.
It said the two carried out activities contravening the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations, without giving details.
Local media reported that the deputy attache’s name appeared in an investigation into Georgescu. Allegedly, one of Georgescu’s associates telephoned the Russian embassy, seeking to contact the deputy.
