At the start of the month a former spy of the Soviet Union and his daughter was poisoned by a nerve toxin that is developed by Russia.
The UK government was quick to blame the Russian government for the attack but the British community remember the Iraq war cries at the turn of the millennium so many of us didn't want to jump to conclusions.
I can't help but think the attack was personal because the Russian spy was a double agent and caused many Russian agents to be imprisoned in the UK. I think that a disgruntled agent made the poison in his home because the poison is designed to be made with ordinary ingredients that can be bought in a shop. Many agents would know the ingredients to the poison. The traditional poison used by Russia is usually radioactive or Risin because it continues to poison your tissues until it is removed or you die so it is more effective.
Based on my limited knowledge of the case I would say the poison was made inside in the UK in the home of an agent. However, I am not saying the President Putin is not connected to it. Perhaps he likes it when "accidents happen to traitors" so to speak. But I chose to keep a hung verdict.
My hope is that the UK and Russia put their differences behind them and learn to be Brothers in toil. That is my dream, I want Russia and UK to be friends and connect through trade and progress and to be a peaceful family on this continent.
