The government "condemns Russia's reckless attacks", which have recently also damaged the Lithuanian embassy in Kyiv and the Latvian honorary consulate in Sloviansk.

"We have also seen how the Russian attacks have caused damage to diplomatic missions and resulted in violations of allied airspace," Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard (M) says in a written comment to TT.

“Russia's violations of international humanitarian law must never, ever be accepted, no matter how long the war lasts,” she continues.

Most recently, in May, the Foreign Ministry summoned the Russian ambassador over the Russian attacks in Ukraine.
