The Spokeswomen for the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova has called on the Norwegian government to take action after one of their employees acted in an unprofessional and nationalistic way by publicly claiming that she hates Russian
According to Zakharova, the Norwegian Foreign Ministry should respond to the incident involving the consular employee who had an altercation with the hotel staff before Russia does.
The incident with an employee of the Norwegian consulate, who declared her hatred of Russians in a hotel in the Murmansk region, is a “manifestation of hatred and nationalism”, says Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
In a video shared by the Mash Telegram channel, a woman tells a hotel employee that she “hates Russians.” The reason for the conflict, according to Mash, was the request of the hotel managers to wait until the cleaning staff of the hotel had finished cleaning the room.
The “Crazy Karen” Norwegian goes about using the “F” word and claims that “This is all Bullshit”.” Then in the elitist nationalistic mentality, she claims that Scandanavians are cleaner than Russians.
“The Russian Foreign Ministry is working out options for responding to this outrageous act of hatred, nationalism and xenophobia. The Norwegian Foreign Ministry will need to act on this disgusting public display of anti-Russian violence before Russia is made to act,” said Zakharova.
The representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that the woman in the video was identified as an employee of the Norwegian consulate Elisabeth Ellingsen, she has been living in Russia since 2019.
According to Mash, the police began checking the statements of a Norwegian citizen, she faces a criminal case under the article on inciting hatred or enmity (282 of the Russian Criminal Code).
