Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrey Kelin said on Monday a termination of diplomatic relations between Russia and the United Kingdom is not in the interests of both parties. In an interview with Russia’s Izvestia daily, Kelin noted that relations between the two countries started deteriorating in 2018 following the Skripals case, but business, humanitarian and
economic interaction remained. However, only bilateral diplomatic
relations were the only to remain after February 24, he added.
