In a week's time, 23 diplomatic staff from the British Embassy in Moscow will be expelled from Russia. It's a tit-for-tat following the British government’s decision to expel 23 Russian diplomats over the poisoning of a former double-agent. The row has driven the relations between the two European countries to new lows. From Moscow Press TV’s Marina Kortunova reports.
