British politicians intend to persuade the countries of the European Union to expel employees of the diplomatic departments of the Russian Federation and to tighten the pressure on Moscow. This is reported by sources Bloomberg. According to them, British Prime Minister Teresa May awaits EU support in the case of poisoning former Colonel GRU Sergey Skripal and his daughter. London is ready to share confidential information with Brussels so that the EU can also blame the poisoning of Skrypal on Moscow. Also, sources said that at a dinner with participants of the EU summit, which will be held on March 22, May will declare a threat to the whole of Europe from Moscow. According to the analyst of the European agency Eurasia Group Mujtaba Rahman, the "Skripal case" may induce the rest of the EU members to consider the issue of national security threatened by Russia. "The main obstacle to a stronger reaction is the presence of Russia's friendly member states [in the European Union]," Rahman added.. Meanwhile, Russia warned the West about the harmfulness of "power" rhetoric in the bilateral dialogue. Although Moscow is not allowed to prohibit its use in domestic politics, it was recognized in the Russian embassy in the United States.

In the diplomatic mission, they reacted emotionally to accusations of Moscow's involvement in the poisoning of Skripal and the "need to hold Russia accountable for its unlawful actions", which was heard the day before in the White House. "Enough to demonize Russia. Enough to threaten Russia and Russian diplomats, whom again some politicians are proposing to expel.

Enough to blame us for all mortal sins. Maybe Moscow is to blame for today's snowfall in Washington and New York? ", The statement says.. The Russian embassy also insisted that the prosecutors provide at least some evidence of "illegal actions," or recognize their absence and "apologize, as decent people do".
