"I don't normally comment on high society, but if Austria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs is forced to justify itself and assure that its foreign policy course will not change in light of this 'private' visit, then things have taken on an interesting new form that brings a sad smile to my face," wrote Pavlo Klimkin, the foreign minister of Ukraine on Twitter.
