Russia Accuses British Embassy Official of Espionage

Russia accused a British diplomat in Moscow of engaging in espionage, the British Foreign Office confirmed Friday.

 

Chris Bowers, acting head of U.K. Trade and Investment at the British Embassy, was first accused Thursday when a news agency reported Russia’s secret service believed Bowers to be a senior British intelligence officer.

 

The Interfax news agency also reported Bowers worked as a spy “under the cover of a BBC correspondent in Tashkent,” Uzbekistan, in the 1990s. A spokesman for the BBC confirmed Bowers worked as a freelance reporter in Tashkent during that time.

 

Britain’s Federal Security Service and Foreign Ministry both refused to comment on the allegations.
