Greece will expel two Russian diplomats and ban entry to another two over suspicions they attempted to undermine a deal between Athens and Macedonia last month, Greek newspaper Kathimerini reports.

Russia’s Foreign Ministry said it would respond in kind to the expulsions, Interfax news agency reported.
