The media reported the use of liquid substance in the poisoning of Sergei Skripal
British media quoted sources as saying that the substance that was poisoned by the Violins was in a "liquid state". Military expert Igor Nikulin on Sputnik radio said that these reports confirm the inconsistency of accusations against the Russian Federation.
The British Ministry of Natural Resources said that the nerve agent used in the poisoning of GRU ex-employee Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia was "liquid", Sky News reported.
Earlier, the same department and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Britain told that work is being completed in Salisbury to clean up the places where they found traces of a poisonous substance. At the same time, experts conducted a re-examination of objects that could be contaminated.
In the British Salisbury on 4 March, ex-employee of the GRU Sergey Skripal and his daughter Yulia, convicted for espionage in favor of Great Britain, were provoked, which provoked an international scandal. London claims that the Russian state is involved in the poisoning of Sergei Skripal, Moscow categorically denies it.
A former member of the UN Commission on Biological and Chemical Weapons, military expert Igor Nikulin, on Sputnik radio broadcast, questioned whether any combat nerve agent was used for the poisoning of the Violins.
"The fact that no one was killed and that all the victims recovered quickly, says that it was not a nerve agent, but something much less toxic, perhaps some kind of special means," Igor Nikulin believes.
According to him, reports on the use of poisonous substances in liquid form once again confirm the failure of the official British version of events.
"The" novice, "as they call it, is a nerve gas and it does not exist in a liquid form, at least in the Soviet Union nothing of the sort has been developed, so it's not what they call the" Novice " for example, the very substance BZ that was in service with the NATO countries, "Igor Nikulin said.
As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov earlier reported, the Swiss research center, which analyzed the OPCW's samples from the scene of the incident in Salisbury, concluded that when Sergei Skripal was poisoned, BZ was used, which was in service with the US and British armies and was not produced in Russia and THE USSR.
