German foreign ministry urges FRG journalists to consider staying in Russia

German journalists need to think over their stay in Russia. This opinion was expressed by the official representative of the German Foreign Ministry Sebastian Fischer.

“Each of them should check whether their presence in Russia is still possible,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Earlier, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that Russia is considering downgrading diplomatic relations with the West.

At the same time, he stressed that decisions of this kind are taken at the highest level.
