💨 Abstract

Russia's embassy in Norway announced a reduction of its consular staff to two due to a demand from Norwegian authorities, effective October 2024. The move will result in a decrease in consular services. Norway expelled 15 Russian embassy officials last year, who were allegedly intelligence officers, prompting the Russian embassy to describe the decision as "unfriendly." The Norwegian foreign ministry declined to comment on the latest development.
