Russian Embassy Banner Sparks Outrage and Calls for Expulsion in Seoul
A “Victory will be ours” banner, unfurled on the Russian embassy in Seoul ahead of the fourth anniversary of the Ukraine invasion, has drawn criticism from diplomatic circles and the South Korean government. Despite demands for its removal, Russia has refused, citing diplomatic conventions and highlighting North Korean contributions to the conflict. The South Korean government asserts that displaying such slogans violates the UN Charter and risks provoking the public and damaging bilateral relations.
