Only 3 percent of Russians associate Sergey and Yulia Skripal’s poisonings with the activities of Russian special services.. These are the results of a survey of sociologists "Levada Center", published on Thursday, October 25.

Moreover, more than half of the respondents - 56% - said that this attempt could have been committed by “anyone.”. 28% of respondents believe that the UK special services are behind the poisoning, and 13% found it difficult to answer.

As sociologists have found out, in more than six months after the Russians poisoned in the British town of Salisbury, the number of Russian citizens who have not heard anything about this incident decreased from 20 to 15 percent. And every third respondent (33%) admitted that he “heard something, but does not know what the essence is”. “They are closely following developments” only 8 percent of Russians.

From October 18 to 24, sociologists surveyed 1,600 Russians over 18 in 136 localities in 52 regions of the country.
