Vil Mirzayanov explained why it was not possible to poison Sergei Skripal

Attachment 8848

MOSCOW, April 13 (Itar-Tass) - RIA Novosti. Chemist Vil Mirzayanov, who calls himself one of the creators of the "Novice", explained how the former GRU officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia could survive the impact of the nerve agent. Thus, he commented on the report of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which concluded that the "Novice" was applied to the victims.

In an interview with "Kommersant FM" Mirzayanov explained that "Novices" have a high hydro-vulnerability, that is, they are unstable connections. This substance can be stable only in the absence of moisture. In England on March 4, when the Skripali was poisoned, there was a fog, the chemist said.

"In conditions of humidity, this substance could only be used by an idiot," he added.

The OPCW published on Thursday a report on the substance that was poisoned by Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia - experts classified the name of the toxic substance, but said that the results of the tests confirm London's conclusions about the nature of this substance.

The British Foreign Office refused to answer a question from RIA Novosti about whether the report featured the title "Novice".

Occurrence in Salisbury

Julia Skripal was discharged from the hospital in Salisbury on April 9. The medical institution stated that she and her father responded very well to treatment, but are at different stages of recovery. On the same day, Julia, in a telephone conversation with her cousin Sister Victoria, said that they are all right with their father, both are recovering.

In Britain they claim that Skripal was poisoned with a substance developed within the framework of the Soviet program "Novice". At the same time, there was no project with such a name in the USSR, and figures used in the designation of the system. The name "Newcomer" was replicated by foreign mass media from the Soviet scientist Vila Mirzayanov, who had nothing to do with the development of chemical weapons.
