Kit Knightly Two days ago it was reported that UK Defense Secretary Grant Shapps was warning the country might face another “novichok-style attack”. And he’s completely right – although probably not in the way he wants you to think. But we’ll get to that. First, we should ask: What exactly is a “novichok-style attack”? What …
New evidence has emerged of gross violations during the UK investigation into the alleged poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in Salisbury on 4th March 2018. The new revelations put into question the main evidence that the Skripals were poisoned with the nerve agent Novichok. The blood samples taken from the Skripals could have been […]
The BBC's new drama "The Salisbury Poisonings" concluded over the weekend. A three-part story "based on actual events", claiming to tell the story of the alleged poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury in 2018. Here are five key facts the BBC simply forgot to mention.
The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss the stunning, inadvertent, admission by the New York Times and CIA Director Gina Haspel that much of what we know from the Salisbury-Skripal poisoning is pure fabrication and manipulation.
‘Duckgate’, as it is now being dubbed, was used to trick US President Trump into expelling 60 Russian Diplomats over false photographic evidence presented to him by Haspel, as it was provided to her by UK authorities.
The Salisbury poisoning saga has gotten more and more confusing and uncertain as it has dragged on. I don’t particularly even care: I’m just watching with baffled curiosity. In the first instance, I expressed doubts about the story, on account of both the timing and the fact that Salisbury (and later Amesbury, where the secondary […]
Prosecutors in the UK last week claimed that Russian tourists, Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov, were responsible for poisoning Sergei and Yulia Skripal in March.
UK authorities stated that the two men were using aliases during their travels to the UK.
The two men named by UK authorities (and one hysterical Theresa May) as suspects in the Sergei and Yulia Skripal case reached out to RT editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan to tell their side of story.
Simonyan does an excellent job of questioning the two men about many unanswered questions regarding their bizarre implication in the ‘Novichok hoax’ that has seriously damaged UK relations with Russia.
Taking a look at the exclusive interview, it is clear that things have gone from weird, to a lot weirder, in the Skripal storyline.

British PM Theresa May says the two suspects in the Skripal poisoning case hoax are Russian military intelligence officers.
May said on Wednesday that the poisoning of former Russian Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in March was ordered at a “senior level” of the Russian government.
She said that the suspects, named as ‘Alexander Petrov’ and ‘Ruslan Boshirov’, are members of the GRU, Russia’s military intelligence service, and that the poisoning was not a “rogue operation.”
Evidence not provided, everything classified and can never released…of course.
