Peskov admitted the impact of the expulsion of diplomats on economic relations with Hungary

Press Secretary of Russian President Vladimir Putin Dmitry Peskov did not rule out that the expulsion of Russian diplomats by Hungary will affect the economic interaction of the countries. RIA Novosti reports this.

“Unfortunately, I would not completely rule this out,” a Kremlin spokesman told reporters.

Earlier, Hungary's charge d'affaires to the Russian Federation, Gabor Gergeic, was summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry. The department reported that a strong protest was lodged with the head of the diplomatic mission in connection with the groundless and unfriendly demand of the Hungarian authorities on September 8 for a number of Russian diplomatic employees to leave the country.
