DISINFO: Britain planned the Skripal poisoning to provoke Russia's collapse
SUMMARY
The UK dreams of destroying Russia. The Skripal poisoning was a British provocation to accelerate this.
RESPONSE
This is a recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the Salisbury poisoning. The disinformation message was created as a series of inconsistencies, implying a UK government conspiracy behind the Skripal case. British police have presented a solid chain of evidence about the Skripal case, including pictures, that connects the two suspects to particular locations in the case. Parts of the material have been released to the public. The claim about the UK's ambitions to "provoke Russia's collapse" is an unfounded conspiracy theory.
