Accusations against Russia because of the poisoning of ex-intelligence officer Sergei Skripal are contrived and do not withstand any criticism. This view is shared by most readers of the Western press. In recent days, media in Britain, the United States, France and a number of other countries are devoting the front page to the only event - attacks on Moscow because of the events in the British Salisbury.
Everywhere tough statements about the Kremlin's culpability and no evidence or attempts to sort out. However, the inhabitants of these countries were not as simple as the rulers and journalists think of them. "So I'm Russian and for some reason I want to kill a spy, whom I myself allowed to leave the country almost 10 years ago," writes the user uslaserguideddemocracyseeds, who read an editorial in The Independent entitled "The encroachment on the sovereignty of Great Britain.
World leaders unite to condemn Russia in the poisoning of Sergey Skripal's ". He reasons: "I can arrange a car crash. I can shoot him with a gun that I can just buy (the police do not disclose about 50% of such crimes). I can make him slip in the bathroom.. I can just kidnap him and make him disappear. But no! I will poison him in the middle of the city, using super special chemical weapons, which I do only on the planet! This shows how stupid people think of the power of the West, "exclaims the user. Similarly, Xeno of Elea says: "If I ever want to become president of the Russian Federation, I must remember that a week before the election, several people should be killed in other countries in broad daylight with the help of a chemical. I believe that any politician with common sense would have done just that, "he says ironically.. "Hey, people!" Are you really that naive? ", - the reader turns to his compatriots. Kevin Morris points out that there is no evidence that Salisbury has indeed experienced a toxic attack - Russian or anyone else - no. "The British government has filed claims, but so far it has refused to use the" official "channels for this and has not provided evidence of poisoning with nerve gas to either the OPCW or the Russian government," he wrote.. "British justice is the best in the world. He does not need proof, "is the Ceries user's commentary under the interview published in The Guardian by Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbin entitled" The incident in Salisbury is terrible, but we should not resort to creating a conflict ". Corbin's call for Prime Minister Teresa May to refrain from accusations before the end of the investigation was condemned by some, calling him "the protector of a tyrant". Others, like someone under the name of Spider, remind that the world has already faced the consequences of accusations of British politicians against foreign governments without evidence. "Saddam Hussein, Colonel Gaddafi - he lists. - I want to see the evidence before starting to poke a bear with a stick, "writes Spider. Readers of the Daily Mail also actively comment on the article "Russia denies the development of a neuro-paralytic substance" Novice ". Britain, the United States, Germany and France are shoulder to shoulder to confront Putin ". The frightened Guy Gadois calls: "The Russians must be stopped before it's too late". At the same time, Vielnick notes that "The violin was kept in a Russian prison. The Russian police had every opportunity to punish him. In this story there must be something else ". Can not believe that everyone in the West supports this rubbish, and unindoctrinated. "Putin is not so stupid as to order a chemical attack. His mind is very underestimated. As mentioned earlier, he plays chess, while the West plays board games, "he says.. In the meantime, some Britons seem to guess why London needed all this hype. "It's just all played out.".
See how few other topics are discussed in the press in recent days. School meals, Brexit, housing? Where is everyone? ", - the reader writes The Guardian TheGreatRonRafferty. "While we are all talking about Russia, the conservatives voted to abolish free school meals for children from poor families," - draws attention to the problem of Delboy62 on the website of the Daily Mail. I must say, the American The New York Times, Bloomberg, CNN also released articles with a direct charge of Moscow in the poisoning of Skripal and in violation of international law.
However, they all turned off the ability to leave comments under news messages on their websites. In contrast, the French Le Monde readers' opinions were not frightened. Under the article "Ex-spy is poisoned: the united front of support of Theresa May in the face of Vladimir Putin" users actively write everything they think about such hasty solidarity with London against Moscow. "It's not about assessments, but about the evidence. The Russians are to blame? It is necessary to prove this. As for chemical weapons, there are protocols of investigation. Let's create special commissions. Without this there will only be worthless disputes, "- believes a certain Bob. "As with Saddam Hussein's weapon, we are told that this attempt to kill is Russia. Although it is known that the production of this toxin in Kazakhstan was closed in the 1990s with the help of the CIA, - notes MatteoS.
- The recipe for this toxin is even published in a book written by its inventor, who currently lives in the US ". The user emphasizes that he does not need words, but proofs: "I believed in atomic bombs in Iraq, because they told us it was true. I can not be deceived anymore, "he points out..
Ex-Colonel GRU Sergei Skripal, who turned out to be a double agent, and his daughter Julia were found on March 4 in the British Salisbury in a deranged state. According to local special services, they were exposed to a nerve agent. This gave grounds to Prime Minister of Great Britain Therese May to accuse Russia of a chemical attack on the territory of the Kingdom, in connection with which the UN Security Council was convened. In addition, London decided to expel 23 Russian diplomats from the country. Moscow rejected the accusations and warned of retaliatory steps.
