The Embassy accused protestors of “aggressive gestures and using obscene language.”
The Russian Embassy in Ireland has requested assistance from the Irish Government to dispel protestors from their gates.
The Irish Mirror reports that a letter had been sent to the Department of Foreign Affairs on 14 April.
“The participants of manifestations and gatherings, taking place on a daily basis at the gate of the Embassy, go far beyond the acceptable behaviour characteristic of a peaceful protest,” the letter reads.
“In particular, they shout insulting messages, containing elements of harassment and abuse, disrespectful of human dignity, which are directed at the Embassy staff.
“During the passage of the vehicles, including those carrying minor family members of the Embassy staff, the protesters deliberately approach cars, knocking on windows, with aggressive gestures and using an obscene language.
“Therefore the Embassy requests the Department’s assistance in arranging appropriate measures by An Garda Síochána in order to prevent these unacceptable actions.”
The embassy on Orwell Street in Dublin has been the subject of numerous protests since the invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces in February.
Most notably, a communion supply lorry drove through its gates, with a man being arrested following the incident.
Another protest saw Father Fergal McDonagh calling into LiveLine to talk to presenter Joe Duffy as he threw red paint at the gates of the embassy.
“I’m actually outside the gates of the Russian Embassy in Orwell Road in Dublin,” Father McDonagh said.
“I’m about to throw paint at it.
“I won’t be the first and I won’t be the last.”
Four senior Russian diplomats were asked to leave Ireland in March, with Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Coveney saying that the diplomats’ activities had “not been in accordance with international standards of diplomatic behaviour”.
In response, two Irish diplomats were asked to leave the Irish Embassy in Moscow.
