According to the Estonian Foreign Ministry, it is a retaliation step against a similar decision made by Estonian authorities earlier.
The ministry said that Franek Persidski is back in Estonia.
Estonian public radio news stated that expelling Persidski is most likely a response to the recent decision of the Estonian authorities not to give visas to five Russians who wanted to participate at a round table meeting taking place in Tallinn and organised by the Gorchakov public diplomatic support foundation.
