Russian, Belarus diplomats banned from entering European Parliament premises

The European Parliament has banned the diplomats and officials from Russia and Belarus from entering its premises, its President Roberta Metsola wrote on Twitter on Friday.

"As of today, diplomatic & government staff of Russia and Belarus are banned from entering the premises" of the European Parliament, she blogged. "There is no place in the House of Democracy for those who seek to destroy the democratic order," the president of the European Parliament said.

A Russian diplomatic source in Brussels has told TASS that since the buildings of the European Parliament remained closed during the coronavirus pandemic, it was anyway extremely difficult for the Russian diplomats to get inside for a long time.
