UK Embassy in Moscow Says Russia Spreading 'Lies' over Spy Poisoning

The British embassy in Moscow on Wednesday said Russia had failed to provide answers during a briefing by the foreign ministry to explain Moscow's point of view over the poisoning of a former spy.

"We received no credible explanation why a nerve agent produced in Russia was used on UK soil. Instead of providing answers, Russia continues to spread lies & disinformation," the embassy said via Twitter.
