Russia‘s ambassador to Poland was doused in red paint and pelted with objects as he tried to lay a wreath at a memorial to Soviet soldiers in Warsaw today.
Sergei Andreev was confronted by protesters as he tried to mark Victory Day – Nazi Germany‘s surrender in 1945 – at the Soviet Military ceremony in the Polish capital.
He was blocked from entering the cemetery by a crowd that waved Ukrainian flags in his face and chanted ‘fascist’ before people began throwing things at him.
