  • Hambling says, tough responses are required with the poisoning of a Russian spy was a brazen memo to the world. The attack on former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter in the UK was not subtle. Richard Guthrie, formerly of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, said this was an overt expression of power to show that the perpetrator could carry out such an attack and to put fear into others. This indicated state involvement, and a UK inquiry found Russia responsible, saying President Vladimir Putin probably approved the attack.
