(Worthy News) - The leaders of the US, France, Germany have joined Britain’s prime minister in blaming Russia for the attempted murder of former double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter in a nerve agent attack earlier this month.

Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, Angela Merkel and Theresa May said in a joint statement that the use of a military-grade nerve agent “constitutes the first offensive use of a nerve agent in Europe since the second world war” and “threatens the security of us all”.

“The UK briefed thoroughly its allies that it was highly likely that Russia was responsible for the attack,” they said in Thursday’s statement. [ Source: Financial Times (Read More...) ]

could not be detected by the then standard NATO chemical weapons detection sensors

have potential to circumvent the Chemical Weapons Convention

would be easier to produce using methods and materials prevalent in pesticides industries

were designed from the outset to be “binary” chemical weapons (where two relatively non-toxic materials are mixed together just before dispersal to minimise the danger to the personnel delivering the weapons).
