Japan said Friday it will expel eight Russian diplomats and officials, calling Moscow’s actions in Ukraine “categorically unacceptable” and a violation of international law.

“As a result of our country’s comprehensive judgment, we have requested the expulsion of eight diplomats from the Russian Embassy in Japan and officials from the Office of the Trade Representative of the Russian Federation,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Hikariko Ono said.
