Serious diplomacy has this Easter Season, given way to the farcical drama of European countries expelling diplomats of their Russian brothers with the later retaliating. This week, 25 countries including non-European allies like the United States, Australia and Canada, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) had knocked out 158 Russian diplomats with Russia absorbing the punches and throwing its own. There is the joke that American President, Donald Trump was watching the CBS 60 Minutes programme when he was asked how many Russian diplomats should be expelled, he looked at the screen, saw 60 Minutes and decided that 60 Russians should be expelled.
