2. The incident with the Skripals and its meaning
On March 4, 2018, British Prime Minister Teresa Mei officially accused Russia of attempting to assassinate Sergei Skripal[5] and his daughter Julia in Salisbury. In the course of this incident suffered a British policeman, who was on the scene of the assassination attempt and tried to help the Skripals. According to the British version, the attack was carried out with the help of a nerve agent, produced in Russia.
The British charge is uncorroborated[6], but local «ladies» and «gentlemen» demand that they be trusted on their word, and the counter-claim to present evidence is perceived as an insult. After that, London announced the expulsion of 23 Russian diplomats. 16 countries of the European Union, as well as the USA, Canada, Norway, Australia, Moldova, Albania, Macedonia and Ukraine, whose establishment genuinely believed the British «ladies» and «gentlemen», or were forced to pretend to believe them, also sent off a number of Russian diplomats, and the NATO authorities reduced the number of employees of the Russian mission at the headquarters. As a result of the incident with the Skripals, a new stage of aggravation of relations between Russia and Western countries began.
The reaction of the Russian officialdom in the aspect of demanding evidence of Russia's guilt would be completely adequate if the British side was honestly mistaken in bringing charges against Russia, rather than making intentionally, knowingly unproven allegations, while also deliberately ignoring the procedures for investigating incidents involving chemical weapons or with suspicion of its use.
In fact Britain has accused Russia of the following:
● illegal development and production of chemical weapons in defiance of the obligations under the «Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction», signed by Russia (1993);
● violation by the special services of Russia of the unwritten ethical code of relations between the special services of different states and their officers;
● continuous[7] systematic conduct of sabotage and terrorist activities on the territory of Great Britain both against the citizens of Russia and against subjects of the British Crown.
And the program for the future resulting from this set of accusations was announced by Boris Johnson the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the «government of Elizaveta Georgievna»[8]:
«We certainly do not yet know exactly what happened in Salisbury, but if the first, rather disagreeable impression is confirmed, it will be another crime in the long list of crimes in which we can blame Russia. And it becomes clear that Russia in many respects is now a force of evil, a destructive force, and Britain should lead the attempts of the world to do something about it».
Nothing new, if one remembers Palmerston’s views…
Plans for the dismemberment of Russia and the colonization of its fragments has been an integral part of the policy of the West in general as well as its leading states in particular (in different epochs are different states) for many centuries, which can be traced since the time of the Battle on the Ice (April 5, 1242, according to the Julian calendar), or even earlier times.
Accordingly, all the British accusations against Russia as well as the ones connected to the incident with the Skripals, together with other mysteriously dead political, criminal and business characters in the UK have but one goal: to morally justify in the opinion of the inhabitants of the Western countries their own sabotage and terrorist activities on the territory of Russia in the conduct of the centuries-old «hybrid war» for world domination of the owners of the biblical project aimed at enslaving humanity in the name of God.
This undermining and terrorist activity of Great Britain against Russia has very long history: the murder of Ivan the Tremendous (deceptively translated into English as «Ivan the Terrible»), the murder of Emperor Paul, supervision of the Decembrists’ revolt, the murder of Emperor Nicholas the First[9], the murder of Emperor Alexander the Third, the murder of G.E.Rasputin (Novykh)[10], supervision of organizers of «February bourgeois-liberastic revolution», supervision of Marxists-Trotskyists, supervision of N.S.Khrushchev and post Stalin dissidents, supervision of Chechen separatists and terrorists during the start of post-Soviet Russia, supervision of liberal public in our days[11].
In this connection we will mention, that urgent flight of V.V.Putin from Australia to Russia after G20 Summit in 2014 in Brisbane was a fairly justified prophylaxis of the consequences of the farewell breakfast that finalized the Summit and that V.V.Putin ignored.
