Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin has confirmed the expulsion of Ukrainian diplomats from the Russian Federation in response to the actions of the Ukrainian side.

“Russia’s “tit-for-tat” response with the expulsion of our diplomats is nonsense. We did not try to poison someone in Salisbury. This was done by Russia and was responded to by the entire civilized world,” the Foreign Minister wrote on Twitter.

At the same time, he stressed that “there are people, who will take care of Ukrainian citizens in Russia”. “We continue working,” Klimkin added.
