The Polish foreign ministry said on Thursday that three staff at the Russian embassy in Warsaw had been designated personae non gratae, adding that Poland was expressing solidarity with a US decision to impose sanctions on Moscow.
The foreign ministry in Warsaw added that the reason for its decision was "the violation of diplomatic status and carrying out activities to the detriment of the Republic of Poland by the indicated persons."
Washington on Thursday imposed a swathe of sanctions on Moscow in response to its alleged interference in US elections, cyber-hacking, bullying Ukraine and other "malign" acts.
