Moscow (Sputnik) – the report of the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons (OPCW) shows that the former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia couldn’t be poisoned Novice-class nerve, Leonid skating rink, one of the creators of “Beginner,” said the Companion.
The OPCW said in its report published earlier in the week that the toxic chemical of high purity was used in the attack.
“OPCW say that has been used for toxic chemicals of high purity proves that he was not a “Newbie”…. A beginner is a complex neuro-paralyzing substance consisting of a mixture of various components and additives which decompose in different ways. If there are any pure substance, it may not be “Beginner”,” said rink.
He noted that if it was new, the OPCW would find various components that disintegrate into non-toxic components over time, and therefore they will not be able to make statements about the toxicity of the chemical.
The expert also emphasized that if purely “Beginner” was really present in the substance found on the handle of the front door of the house Skripal, Sergey and Yulia would die immediately after exposure to chemicals.
In addition, said the rink that the OPCW report contradicts the words of vil Mirzayanov, who called himself one of the founders of the Rookie class of nerve action. Mirzayanov said that the toxin does not kill Skripals since the substance is water resistant, and there was fog in the United Kingdom on 4 March, the day of the attack poisoning Skripals.
“That’s a fair point, because “Newbie” is a very unstable substance, which depends on [the] effects of water, alkalis, everything. But then the experts would find the products of hydrolysis, and, of course, not a pure substance,” rink said.
According to rink, Skripals could be poisoned by fentanyl, which is used in production of narcotic substances. He added that the problem of recovering Skripals were similar to those of poisoning by fentanyl.
Rink noted that Skripals may have been sprayed with fentanyl, sitting on a bench, where they were found unconscious.
“Fentanyl immediately brings a person down. He immediately falls. The effect of fentanyl occurs instantly,” said rink.
In addition, the fact that no one saw Skripals in the face after the attack indicated that the statements about the impact of “Rookie” turned out to be false, he said. Rink added that “Newbie” effect on the eyes of the victim, but the UK authorities never mentioned this symptom in any of their statements, provided Skripals.
Skripal and his daughter Julia was found unconscious on March 4 on a bench at a shopping center in the city of Salisbury UK. London has accused Moscow of organizing the poisoning of a former intelligence officer with A234 nerve agent. Britain insists on the fact that this substance is similar to Novichok class of nerve agents developed in the Soviet Union. Russia has denied the charges.
