Last week, Germany expelled two Russian envoys of what it claims non-cooperation in the investigation of the murder of a Georgian in Germany where prosecutors suspect Russian or Chechen involvement.
In a retaliatory move, Moscow expelled two German envoys.
On August 23, Zelimkhan Khangoshvili, a 40-year-old Georgian national, was shot dead allegedly by a Russian man in Kleiner Tiergarten park in Berlin. The accused who shot at the head of the Georgian was arrested shortly after the incident.
