Russia
is ordering all of its officials to fly home any relatives living
abroad amid heightened tensions over the prospect of global war, it has
been claimed.
Politicians and high-ranking figures
are said to have received a warning from president Vladimir Putin to
bring their loved-ones home to the ‘Motherland’, according to local
media.
It comes after Putin cancelled a
planned visit to France amid a furious row over Moscow’s role in the
Syrian conflict and just days after it emerged the Kremlin had moved
nuclear-capable missiles near to the Polish border.
Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev
has also warned that the world is at a ‘dangerous point’ due to rising
tensions between Russia and the US.
