Liz Truss ‘kicks’ Russia ambassador out of meeting
The Alarabiya English reported, according to sources, British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss berated Moscow’s ambassador over his country’s invasion of Ukraine on Thursday, calling Russia an international pariah before kicking him out of the meeting.
According to an official statement for her department, Truss had summoned Andrei Kelin over what she said was Russia’s “unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine."
British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss told Kelin that his country had “repeatedly lied about having no plans to invade Ukraine, and [that] its unprovoked aggression had made it an international pariah.”
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office statement said that she added, Western sanctions would inflict pain on the Russian economy, and Moscow “should expect a long, protracted conflict that would inflict a huge human, economic and political cost on the Russian government."

The source added, she “kicked [Kelin] out after he started spouting the Kremlin’s incredulous propaganda lines."
