The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine has called on Austria to expel Russia's Permanent Representative to the International Organizations in Vienna, Mikhail Ulyanov, who called for the extermination of Ukrainians.
Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko said this on Twitter, Ukrinform reports.
"Russia’s Ambassador Mikhail Ulyanov is calling for the elimination of the Ukrainian nation. This genocidal language must not be tolerated. We call on the entire diplomatic community in Vienna to boycott Ulyanov, and on the host country, Austria - to declare him persona non grata," Nikolenko wrote.
Ulyanov, responding to a tweet by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he thanked the United States for a new package of military aid, tweeted that there should be no mercy to the Ukrainian population. Later, he deleted his tweet.
