Russia hacking row: Moscow demands US return seized mansions

Russia hacking row: Moscow demands US return seized mansions
17 July 2017 Europe
Russia is pressing demands that the US give it access to two diplomatic compounds seized in the US last year.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said it was unacceptable to set preconditions for returning the properties. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov described the move as "daylight robbery".
In December the US expelled 35 Russian diplomats and shut the compounds over suspicions of meddling in US elections.
Russian and US officials are due to discuss the issue later on Monday.
