Cui bono? Russian envoy to UN asks about Salisbury case, says Moscow ready for open probe | |
(35 minutes later) | |
Russia's envoy to the UN has demanded proof of Russia's involvement in the incident in Salisbury. He also asked members of UNSC to think who would benefit from these accusations. | |
Vasily Nebenzya said the UK dragged this case to the UN rather than addressing a relevant international body in the Hague because it is scared of a professional probe. Most of the UK's claims are in the form of "highly likely," Nebenzya said.He said that the letter from Theresa May included unjustified accusations that Moscow had something to do with the use of toxic agents in Salisbury."We were given 24 hours to confess to a crime," he said. "We do not speak the language of ultimatums." | |
