Was It Really Novichok ???

Here is an apparent contradiction from the Skripal affair:

Former Russian spy Sergei Skripal is no longer in a critical condition and his health is improving rapidly, more than a month after he was poisoned with a nerve agent in England, the hospital treating him said on Friday.

Novichok, the much-vaunted Russian nerve agent alleged used in the Salisbury attacks, has been presented to the public over the last month as the ultimate killer. Officials predicted brain damage to those exposed to the agent, treating scores of people on even the flimsiest pretext. The New York Times went so far as to call it “The Nerve Agent Too Deadly to Use.”

Yulia Skirpal, the daughter of the purported target, has been improving greatly and is expected to be discharged from hospital soon. Now medical officials at the hospital say that her father Sergei is also “recovering rapidly,” and is no longer in critical condition himself.

Details on Sergei Skirpal’s exact condition are still speculative, but officials are now presenting lasting effects of the incident as only a possibility, not a foregone conclusion.

Contrast that with what Vil Mirzayanov told me in 1995:

"After serious CW poisoning, no one can really be fully rehabilitated.  Some damage will be permanent."

Whom are you going to believe - the man who really knows about Novichok, or some lying "officials" in the UK and US?

  1. Here is additional discussion proving the Skripals were NOT poisoned using Novichok:

    Either we STOP listening to NATO's lies, or we will suffer the consequences - which may include global nuclear war.
