Germany recalls its ambassador from Russia

The German Foreign Ministry has said that it is recalling Ambassador Alexander Lambsdorf from Russia for consultations.

According to TASS, this is due to the accusation of a pro-Russian group of a cyberattack on the resources of the SPD party.

"I can additionally report that the foreign minister has decided to recall Ambassador Lambsdorf to Berlin for consultations," the German Foreign Ministry told reporters.

The German foreign ministry specified that Alexander Lambsdorf would stay in Berlin for a week. After that, he will return to work in Moscow.
