Another UAV attack on the Russian trade mission in Sweden, when a package of red paint was dropped on the site in front of the main entrance to the office building, occurred with the full connivance of the Swedish authorities. Moscow demands that Stockholm strictly comply with its obligations under the Vienna Convention. This is stated in the comments of the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
"As we have repeatedly commented, such attacks by allegedly unidentified drones on objects of Russian diplomatic property in Sweden are systematic and occur with the full connivance (hopefully not with direct sanction) of the Swedish authorities, who cannot, and most likely simply do not want to bring the attackers to justice," the diplomat noted.
As Zakharova stressed, "for our part, we insist on the strict fulfillment by the Swedish authorities of the obligations of the host country in accordance with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations of 1961 regarding the physical security and inviolability of Russian missions abroad."
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry pointed out that "official Stockholm not only grossly violates its obligations under the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations to ensure the inviolability of foreign diplomatic missions, but also, apparently, is not able to monitor compliance with the provisions of domestic legislation."
She recalled that the decision of the Swedish Transport Authority established a no-fly zone over the territories of the Russian Embassy and Trade Mission in Sweden.
