Norway is considering expelling Russian diplomats, according to Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre (AP).

Norway considers expelling Russian diplomats

On Tuesday, Denmark announced it would expel 15 Russian intelligence officers from the country. In recent days, a number of EU countries have expelled Russian diplomats. 

Norway is considering doing the same, Støre confirmed on Tuesday.

“There are discussions underway in different countries; there are no joint decisions about it. But it is a reaction to the outrageous warfare we see and a lack of Russian will to do something about it,” Støre told NTB.

“We have to consider this in conversation with other countries,” he said.
