Russian ambassador concludes mission in Prague after over decade

Alexander Zmeyevsky has concluded his term as Russian ambassador to the Czech Republic after more than 10 years, the news site Hlidacipes.cz reported on Thursday, citing a Czech Foreign Ministry list of diplomatic officials that no longer features his name.

Mr. Zmeyevsky’s last act as ambassador was evidently being summoned to the Czech Foreign Ministry last month to explain remarks from Russian representatives that Czech drone manufacturers could be targeted by Russia.

A replacement was named by Vladimir Putin five months ago but the post remains empty, Hlidacipes.cz said.
