diplomats over the poisoning of a former spy in the u.k. so a lever off said moscow is also closing the u.s. consulate in some petersburg is just the latest in a string of tit for tat expulsions announced by moscow and countries siding with the u.k. and blaming russia for a new nerve agent attack or which allan's reports well we've been waiting for several days only for russia to come out with its response so all these diplomatic expulsions the western nations processing of the moment. on thursday evening in moscow we did get some clue from a lover of the russian foreign minister about what these are going to be let's listen to what so you lavrov had to say mutable good. news there will be mirrored measures but not only stopping it that the us ambassador is invited to our ministry where my deputy would deliver him the content

of these retaliation re measures against the united states they include the exposion of a similar number of diplomats and they include our decision to withdraw our consent to the operation of the united states consulate general in some petersburg as for the rest of the countries everything that concerns the number of people who leave the russian federation from diplomatic missions is also mirrored. well jon huntsman the u.s. ambassador to russia was summoned to the foreign ministry earlier and he was told that there are fifty eight personnel in moscow that are being declared persona non grata from the u.s. embassy and two consular staff from the consulate in. who are now persona non grata as well this impede consulate has two days in which to wrap up or operate ins and shut down those very fast and all the staff that being kicked out while they have a week to leave the russians are also clearly quite concerned i think about yulia

a few days ago but the u.s. state department doesn't seem to be seeing it that way. yes indeed the u.s. state department extremely angered by the russian move the state department spokesperson arguing that some twenty seven nations have expelled more than one hundred fifty russian diplomats over the past week this very clearly as a sanction for that alleged poisoning of the former russian double agent in the united kingdom the state department spokesman insisting that this was not a proportionate response by russia this is what she had to say there is no justification for the russian response our actions were motivated purely by the attack on the united kingdom the attack on a british citizen and his daughter remember this is the first time that a weapons grade nerve agent no overt shock has been used outside of war on allied

soil. well the state department spokesman also said that russia has no right to be playing the victim reported and importantly she says that the u.s. reserves the right to further actions so clearly this diplomatic dispute very far from over and a thank you my kind of there in washington to see and the u.s. state department has also denied there are plans to pull u.s. troops out of syria that's after president trying suggested as much during a rally in ohio and by the way we're knocking the hell out of isis will be coming out of syria like very soon let the other people take care of it now very soon very soon we're coming now we're going to have a hundred percent of the caliphate as they call it sometimes you further to his land to get it all back quickly quickly.
