Ireland expels Russian envoy over faked spy passports<br />
---------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
(BBC) reland is expelling a Russian diplomat over claims his country's<br />
intelligence services counterfeited Irish passports.<br />
A police investigation found the identities of six Irish citizens were used<br />
as cover for Russian spies found to have been working in the US, said an<br />
Irish foreign ministry statement. Such activities were "completely<br />
unacceptable", the ministry said. In response, the unnamed diplomat "has<br />
been asked to leave this jurisdiction", it said, without specifying a date.<br />
The ministry said it was "regrettable" that the action was necessary, but<br />
that the behaviour of the Russian intelligence service was not what the<br />
Irish government "would expect from a country with which we have friendly<br />
relations". Last June, a network of 10 Russian spies living as US citizens<br />
was uncovered - with several using Irish passports. They were swiftly<br />
deported as part of the biggest US-Russia spy swap since the Cold War.<br />
