UK Summons Russian Ambassador Amid Public Aggression Claims

The British government has called in the Russian ambassador in response to what it deems baseless accusations and an public campaign of aggression by Russia, which includes alleging espionage against British diplomats in Moscow.

The British government announced on Wednesday that it had summoned the Russian ambassador.

This comes after Russia launched what the UK described as an 'unprecedented and unfounded public campaign of aggression,' including allegations against Foreign Office personnel.

Russia's FSB recently revoked the accreditation of six British diplomats in Moscow, accusing them of spying and sabotage. Britain has dismissed these accusations as 'completely baseless.'
