Russia is expelling Estonia's Ambassador and the country's diplomatic mission will be headed by a charge d'affaires, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on January 23. The Estonian Foreign Ministry ordered Russia to reduce the number of its embassy staff to eight diplomats and 15 administrative, technical and service staff members by February 1. Estonia has reduced its bilateral relations with Moscow “to the absolute minimum” since the Kremlin sent troops into Ukraine.
