Britain: Russian proposal for joint Salisbury probe 'perverse'

None

THE HAGUE - The British delegation to the global chemical weapons body on Wednesday dismissed a Russian proposal for a joint UK-Russian investigation into the Salisbury poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal as "perverse."

 

"Is it a diversionary tactic, and yet more disinformation designed to evade the questions the Russians authorities must answer," the UK delegation said in a tweet during a special meeting at the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
