Russia expels Le Monde’s Moscow correspondent
Russia has withdrawn the press accreditation of Le Monde’s Moscow correspondent, Benjamin Quénelle. This is the first time since 1957 that Le Monde has been without a Russia correspondent, said editor-in-chief Jérôme Fenoglio in an interview with his own newspaper.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova says the decision to expel the French correspondent is revenge after France denied a visa to a Russian journalist.

Russians may be banned from buying Finnish real estate
The Finnish government has moved forward with its plan to ban Russian citizens from buying real estate in the country. On Thursday, a bill was submitted to the Riksdag, reports Bloomberg.
The proposal applies to all countries that are waging wars of aggression and may threaten national security, but Defense Minister Antti Häkkänen is clear that it is Russia that is being referred to.
- We cannot accept that attempts are being made to destabilize Finland by abusing real estate property, he says, according to Hufvudstadsbladet.
