A well-known politician in Britain, Craig Murray, from 2002 by 2004 he worked as the UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, in his blog "sort through" the "case Skripal", thereby breaking the "compelling" to the British authorities on the incident arguments, occurring in Salisbury. According to Murray, it is the "most ridiculous" conspiracy theory, directed exclusively against Russia.
In particular, politician said, that the "case Skripal" British intelligence was the only source of, He referred to by the official London. That British intelligence claimed, that only Russia has the nerve gas called "Beginner" and specially trained people, able to use it properly. But it is precisely the secret services of Britain claimed the same thing with regard to weapons of mass destruction program, which allegedly developed Saddam Hussein. As we all well remember, this information, ultimately, It was a lie. Whether British intelligence truthful arguments?
In his blog, Murray also notes, that if Russia, as London claims, for decades to develop programs for the production and storage of weapons of nerve, Why, then Britain as "silently stood by" time and did not declare it? According to the British politician, at one time Russia has developed a special training manual on the use of "newcomers" for military purposes, and one of its copies have, by the way, in the collection of the British special services. But even if we assume, that in Russia there was an active work on the preparation of agents for use with the "newcomers", then why these agents are not brought his case to its logical conclusion?
Murray and have doubts about the purpose of the attack. According to the politician, Sergei Skripal was a "double agent mid-level", released from prison in Russia eight years ago. If the Russian secret services wanted to eliminate it, it happened at a time, – Murray continues his reasoning.
It is puzzling in British politics, and the fact, that in the official media in Britain are actively imposed idea, that Russia has created a "Beginner". This went on and then, when he "Porton Down," was unable to confirm this information. And, nobody remembers, that in the development of nerve gas took part scientists from the former Soviet Union, such as Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia. The very same chemical weapons created in the Uzbek city of Nukus, and that the United States brought down the object, where the development of chemical weapons carried, and took all the necessary equipment. In this way, a suspect in the poisoning Skripal get dozens of states, which can be done "Newbie", – concludes Craig Murray.
The British politician is sure, that Russia could not be interested in the poisoning Skripal. He also believes, that since the incident Skripal aimed solely at, "to accuse and discredit Russia".
