"A note has been received from the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding the matter," Stepanov said.
The absence of an extradition treaty between Canada and Russia is an untenable excuse for refusing to extradite Hunka, the Ambassador said.
"This is an an obvious politically motivated excuse," Stepanov said.
In any case, this story with Nazi Hunka is far from over. We - Russia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Embassy - will continue to seek justice," Stepanov said.
