The figuring poison in the case of the poisoning of ex-colonel GRU Sergey Skripal and his daughter Julia in Salisbury on March 4 seems to have been aroused by the Czech political anthill. Today it became known that contradictory information about the production and storage of chemicals in the Czech Republic, which London calls "Novice", led to the fact that the Parliament of the Republic intends to discuss this situation on May 15. "Their meeting on Tuesday, the deputies will begin by discussing the situation around the chemical substance" Novice ", - quotes RIA Novosti news agency's press service. The events that took place around the "Novice" on Thursday, May 10, were considered in closed session at the meetings of the International Affairs Committee, which was attended by the heads of the Defense Ministry, Civilian Counterintelligence and Nuclear Security Administration, and the Commission for Monitoring Military Intelligence Activities. Here the head of this department took part. The result of the meetings of the committee and the commission, according to their chairmen Lubomir Zaoralek and Vita Rakushan, adopted resolutions stating:.
Chemistry of the type "Novice" in the Czech Republic was not produced or stored. Also members of the commission for monitoring military intelligence activities called on their President Milos Zeman to adhere to the regime of secrecy of information coming from special services.
"People from military intelligence would be very happy if this story, which they attribute to pseudo problems, soon ended. They need peace of mind in order to deal with many other topics that may in the future carry a danger to the republic. And they, of course, do not need any interest from the media, "said Rakushan. Commented the closed meeting and the head of the Ministry of Defense of the country Karl Shlehtov. "I can say that the committee concluded negotiations on a resolution, which states that the Czech Republic has never produced or stored a nerve agent of the" Novice "type," she said.. According to Zaoralek, in the Czech Republic, there has never been a poison from the "case of the Violins".
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, substance A-234 was used in Salisbury, while several milliliters of A-230 substance were produced, tested and destroyed in the Czech laboratory in Brno. It was created to develop methods of protection against the use of this poison, Ceske Noviny. Did not stay away from the events in Prague and the head of state currently on an official visit to Warsaw. It seems that he criticized the participants in the meetings.
"With all due respect to the level of education of some members of our parliament, I'm not sure that they have more complete information on this issue than the director of the institute, in which, in his own words," Novice "was produced," said Zeman. The President of the Czech Republic, during the TV show on May 3, dumbfounded the world public with the recognition that in November 2017, the nerve paralytic poison was tested at the Research Institute of the Ministry of Defense in Brno, which is classified as A-230. The amount of the produced substance was very small, and after it was destroyed.
Milos announced the opinion of military intelligence that the synthesized poison A-230 is called "Novice". In turn, the Czech counterintelligence believes that the A-230 is not called "Novice", it is the name of substance A-234.
Probably, the Czech authorities need to agree with each other what they actually synthesized and eventually named Novicok. And it's even frightening to think about what irritation will begin, if any leader of any state declares that in his country they also dealt with the "Novice".
