The United Kingdom sees "very likely" that Russia is behind the poisoning of a former Moscow spy

British Prime Minister Theresa May sees it as "very likely" that Russia is behind the poisoning of a former Moscow spy, Sergei Skripal, and his daughter, Yulia. This was stated in a parliamentary appearance, where he concluded that the product that caused the poisoning was manufactured in Russian territory. Hence, he believes that either it is the work of the Kremlin or the substance reached the wrong hands to leave the Russian and MI6 double agent in a coma, according to reports. The vanguard.

Sergei Skripal, a retired colonel of the Russian Intelligence Services, and his daughter have been in critical condition for a week after being poisoned in the British city of Salisbury. Both visited a restaurant and a pub and then sat on a bench in the street, where they were found in a very serious condition.

Remains of a substance called Novichok, which translated into Spanish means novice, have been found in both locations, which has been produced in Russia since the years of the Cold War.

Theresa May has no doubt that Russia is behind this act because the way of acting bears the Russian seal. It is not the first time that a former Russian agent has died in the United Kingdom.

Putin, who next week seeks re-election as president of Russia, asked London to get to the bottom of this matter. In any case, the British ambassador has been summoned by the United Kingdom, which threatens to take more measures to prevent more civilians from dying on its territory in this way.
