Russia and the West expelled a record number of diplomats in a week – Elkin drew a cartoon about this

Russian cartoonist Sergei Elkin ridiculed mass expulsion of diplomats from Russia, USA, Europe.

With her he shared in your Telegram channel.

So, the caricature depicts the cabin of an airplane, in which persons are sitting non grata. A stewardess stands in front of them, and, addressing the expelled diplomats, asks to turn off their “spy radios”.

Note that Russia and the West are mutually sent 140 diplomats. Interestingly, there was no such precedent even before World War II. For example, during the Cold War in 1986, in response to the expulsion of five American diplomats, the Ronald Reagan administration expelled 55 Soviets from the United States.

As Telegraf previously reported, earlier the Baltic states supported the Czech Republic’s decision to expel Russian diplomats.
