Russian propaganda channels have published a video of “symmetrical revenge” for the red-painted Russian ambassador in Warsaw.
After the incident in Warsaw, where on May 9, during the laying of flowers at the monument to Soviet soldiers, the Russian ambassador was doused with red paint , three unknown men soiled the wall of the Polish embassy in the capital of the Russian Federation.
A video posted to social media showed three men pouring paint over the building.
Two men pour “blood” on the facade, and the third shoots this event on the phone.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Lukasz Jasina said that Poland’s ambassador to Russia, Krzysztof Krajewski, confirmed that such an event had indeed taken place on Wednesday, May 11. The ambassador called the police to the scene.
Yasina also noted that if Poland takes any diplomatic steps in connection with this incident, then this will be reported additionally.
“Any attempt at such a reaction to the situation that took place in Warsaw is, of course, completely unacceptable. Diplomatic missions and diplomats enjoy appropriate immunity. I do not think that this type of incident requires a broader comment, except that we will expect the Russian side to explain and identify possible culprits,” Deputy Foreign Minister Marcin Przydacz later commented to reporters while in Washington.
Recall that earlier in the Smolensk region of the Russian Federation, a convoy of construction equipment drove up to the Katyn memorial, where Polish soldiers, victims of executions during World War II, are buried. Bulldozers raised their buckets menacingly near the commemorative sign.
