Russia expels Polish journalist

Polish daily Gazeta Wyborcza said that Moscow has expelled its Russian correspondent, Wacław Radziwinowicz, in a tit-for-tat move after Leonid Sviridov, a Russian journalist from the pro-Kremlin Rossiya Segodnya,  was accused of spying and stripped of the right to stay in Poland. Poland’s Internal Security Agency (ABW) said Sviridov was a threat to Poland’s security, though it kept his case top secret and never revealed what evidence it had against him. Polish media said Sviridov was suspected of spying for Russia, something Sviridov denied. Radziwinowicz has now 30 days to leave Russia.
