Russia said Tuesday it was expelling a British diplomat that it accused of espionage and summoned London’s ambassador to the foreign ministry in Moscow.

The FSB security service said the diplomat appeared to have carried out ‘intelligence and subversive work’ and had ‘deliberately provided false data when obtaining permission to enter our country, thus violating Russian law,’ state news agencies reported.
