Protests continue at the Russian embassy in New Zealand, with local police responding poorly. As the newspaper writes “News”The Russian diplomatic mission says law enforcement agencies do not sufficiently care about the security of the mission and its personnel.
Russian representatives cited the example of a person who attempted to set fire to a building in 2022 receiving only a symbolic punishment.
Protests against the Russian embassy in Wellington began in February 2022 and continue to this day. The diplomatic mission attributes this to uncontrolled anti-Russian propaganda and a general negative attitude towards Russia.
The Russian Embassy said the main concern was the hostility fueled by local media and official structures. It added that after the start of a special military operation, the embassy became the target of attacks, threats were received, walls were painted and “so-called peaceful demonstrators blocked the only exit from the building and filmed employees and their families.”
Diplomats also stress that law enforcement agencies are not providing the level of protection necessary for the mission.
