And she did it under a fabricated pretext, as usual, without explaining anything, the Russian embassy in Washington stated.. State Department announced the adoption of new restrictions on Wednesday, August 8. Ostensibly because of the "use by the government of the Russian Federation" of the nerve agent "Novice" against the British citizen Sergei Skripal and his daughter, "the diplomatic mission. But neither facts nor evidence, "as has been said, did not sound". And "the clarifying questions the American side, referring to secrecy, refused to give explanations," the embassy noted.. At the same time, Russia still insists on an open investigation into the case in the British city of Soldsbury and the punishment of the perpetrators, in addition, suggests that the United States promulgate correspondence on this issue,. But the answer from the American side was not noted in the diplomatic mission. Earlier yesterday, the State Department announced the imposition of new sanctions against Russia because of the so-called case of Skripal, recalls the "National News Service". The leadership of the Russian Federation, according to the American Foreign Ministry, has used chemical or biological weapons in the territory of Great Britain in an attempt to murder the British citizen Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia. Restrictions must enter into force on August 22. Washington is going to significantly reduce the level of diplomatic relations between the two countries, to close the US sky for Aeroflot, to limit imports and exports.

However, sanctions are introduced selectively, in accordance with American interests. For example, the space sphere, where the United States can not do without the help of Russia, and restrictions on the supply of aircraft parts, will not be affected, said the "Fifth Channel". The introduction of new US sanctions against Russia in connection with the incident in Salisbury has already responded in the UK. The United Kingdom welcomes this decision of the Americans, RIA Novosti was informed in the office of the Prime Minister of Great Britain.
