Moscow not done with Borodin incident

Russia does not yet consider the incident with the diplomat Dmitry Borodin in The Hague as resolved, reports the news agency Interfax. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Moscow wanted answers from The Hague on the case Thursday. Russia maintains that Borodin's "attackers" must be punished. In addition, a compensation is requested for the family of the diplomat. Embassy_of_Russia_in_The_Hague_Klepkin

Netherlands apologized for the arrest last week, which violated international diplomatic rules. Minister Timmermans simultaneously sympathized with the conduct of the Hague police.
