Russia has issued a stern warning to the British government
over its latest sanctions on Moscow.
The Russian foreign ministry summoned the British Ambassador
to Moscow, Deborah Bronnert on Friday and laid her country’s offences before
her.
Russia expressed dismay over the latest sanctions against
the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company.
A statement from the Russian foreign ministry, according to
CNN, said that the Ambassador was told about the unacceptability of such destructive
actions.
Russia warned that the continuation of such actions will
inevitably lead to the final destruction of bilateral ties and damage to
relations between the two countries.
The ministry accused the United Kingdom of imposing
sanctions against the Russian media just because they were covering and
interpreting events taking place in the world.
According to Russia, these latest sections were not
consistent with Western patterns and clearly confirms the duplicity and
cynicism of British politicians.
Russia said that freedom of the media for British
politicians “is nothing more than a tool for solving market problems.”
It further accused the UK and its officials of imposing
sanctions and making statements with “threats” that are “interspersed with lies
and outright rudeness” against Russia.
“The Russian side will continue to respond harshly and
decisively to all sanctions initiated by London and take retaliatory measures,”
the statement added.
