An employee of the Russian consulate in Rio de Janeiro slapped a woman who had come to the consulate on February 24 to protest the war in Ukraine.
The woman who was slapped is a Russian national. Her friend filmed the episode. Both women were taken to a police station, where they wrote a statement about the incident.
A Meduza source said the woman is getting threats from the consulate, allegedly saying the consulate will open a criminal case against her.
