The PM said it was "highly likely" Russia was responsible for the Salisbury attack.
The Foreign Office summoned Russia's ambassador to provide an explanation.
Mrs May said if there is no "credible response" by the end of Tuesday, the UK would conclude there has been an "unlawful use of force" by Moscow.
The chemical used in the attack, the PM said, has been identified as one of a group of nerve agents known as Novichok.
Mrs May said: "Either this was a direct action by the Russian state against our country, or the Russian government lost control of its potentially catastrophically damaging nerve agent and allowed it to get into the hands of others."

What’s Christopher Steele doing nowadays?
“or the Russian government lost control of its potentially catastrophically damaging nerve agent and allowed it to get into the hands of others”
Always keep in mind that the CIA can do things and make it look like others did.
[What’s Christopher Steele doing nowadays?]
Probably should check The Clinton Foundation operations.....
Do you blame America any time something bad happens in the world?
My first thought as well. Put in is many things but he is not stupid.
Have they really found SVR wet work behind it or are they guessing?
Probably MI6. They flipped him and when he's no longer useful, why keep someone who flipped around and take the chance that they'll have regrets?

Yeah, either MI6 or the tooth fairy since KGB Vlad would never be involved in assassinations.
Wow! These politicians really are smart people!
The same Putinists happily defending fascist Russia in the thread were insisting it was a local uprising in Crimea a few years ago. Then Putin handed out the medals to Russian military involved in the invasion of Crimea. Unsurprisingly, we never heard back from Putin’s bootlickers on that issue.
GB is isolated from the EU now due to Brexit. It makes total sense that Putin would poke a weak leader like May in the eye and enjoy the fallout.
Blowing Up Russia: The Secret Plot to Bring Back KGB [Power]
Alexander Litvinenko & Yuri Felshtinsky
This book, co-authored by Alexander Litvinenko, the victim of the notorious 2006 London polonium poisoning, attempts to demonstrate that modern Russia’s most fundamental problems do not result from the radical reforms of the liberal period of Yeltsin’s terms as president, but from the open or clandestine resistance offered to these reforms by the Russian special services. It was they who unleashed the first and second Chechen wars, in order to divert Russia away from the path of democracy and towards dictatorship, militarism, and chauvinism.
The authors alleged that the Russian apartment bombings and other September 1999 terrorist acts were committed by the Federal Security Service. Litvinenko and Felshtinsky wrote that the bombings were a false flag operation intended to justify Second Chechen War and bring Vladimir Putin to power.

Moscow doesn’t care what May thinks and Russia is already under sanctions.
And Putin has demonstrated his enemies aren’t safe anywhere.
The Federal Security Service is Russia’s main law enforcement agency.
Its the successor of the Czarist Okhrana and the Soviet era Cheka, NKVD, Ministry Of State Security, KGB and the Russian era Ministry Of Security.
The organs are immortal in Russia and all that changes are their names.
“Over the next six years, Litvinenko became an anti-Kremlin journalist, accusing the Russian government of abuses during their battles with Chechen separatists in the 1990s, and the FSB’s alleged 1999 bombing of 300 people in explosions at apartments in Russia that was used to justify its second war against Chechnya.
He also claimed two of the Chechen separatists who took hostages at a theater in Moscow in October 2002 during which 162 people died were working for the FSB. He also pointed the finger at the FSB for having trained al Qaeda deputy leader Ayman al-Zawahiri.”
I wonder if any of that nerve agent has been transfered to “Little Kim” who then negotiated a contract? The mode of operation fits his style.
But, stupid people like to jump to their preconception related stupid conclusions, so knock yourself out.
