Why did Britain fall out with Russia for a spy?

After Krippahl, a former Russian double agent, and his daughter You Liya were poisoned and comatose in Britain, Britain submitted an ultimatum to Russia on March 12th to ask for an explanation. The Russian side did not give an explanation. Immediately after the parliamentary report, British Prime Minister theresa may announced that he would expel 23 Russian diplomats and ask them to leave the country within one week. Russia only said that it would take the same revenge after notifying Britain.

The struggle between Britain and Russia was when the US-DPRK issue began to move towards the road of negotiation, and Germany and France gradually controlled the EU's economy and immigration, so Britain was stranded in the Brexit. Before the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, former British Prime Minister Churchill encouraged American President Truman to start the Cold War against the Soviet Union and delivered a famous speech on the arrival of the Iron Curtain. During the Cold War, Britain and the United States led the whole Cold War and NATO as staunch allies. It can be said that when Britain was caught in a political crisis, Russia was always the best cushion. But it's a pity that Putin is not as reckless as Khrushchev.

The recent easing of US-DPRK relations has attracted the attention of EU countries on the strategic direction of the United States in Asia. Before that, Britain did not gain more benefits in the process of leaving the European Union, which greatly reduced the proportion of Britain's right to speak in Europe. In addition, Russia will host the football World Cup in June, which shows that it is imperative for France, Germany and Russia in the EU countries to strengthen ties in the future. Now the weak theresa may has made Britain face a strategic crisis, and Britain's strategic position relative to the United States is declining, while in the EU.

British experts said that the substance used in Krippahl's poisoning was similar to the nerve agent developed by the Soviet Union in the late 198s. It is very untenable for Britain to start questioning Russia just because it is a nerve gas developed during the Soviet era and has the spy habit of sanctioning treason with Russia.

This is completely different from the time and space background in which former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill used American suspicion of the Soviet Union to provoke US-Soviet relations after the Soviet Union's victory in World War II. At that time, the United States mainly sold its expensive post-war infrastructure and equipment, and exported to Europe a large number of surplus production materials, labor and technology from the United States during World War II to dying European countries. At that time, the United States also believed that European countries would definitely repay their original loans after development, and made American technology take root in Europe. Secondly, taking advantage of the ideological contradiction between the Soviet Union and Russia, under the provocation of Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union finally went to the Cold War. The climax of the Cold War was not in Stalin's time, but Khrushchev provoked the nerve line of American security in Cuba for his own political interests.

At present, successive British prime ministers still maintain this thinking and want to continue the thinking of Churchill and Thatcher, but the problem is that the United States does not need to export its surplus products now, and American finance and technology can be circulated globally through the World Trade Organization, and Russia has not challenged any American interests in the European Union now.

It can be said that anti-Russian organizations or politicians in CIS countries, even some oligarchs, like to stay in Britain very much, mainly because Britain is the main site for collecting Russian intelligence. In dealing with Russia, European countries really need British help. At present, Britain's reaction is only to keep its reputation as an oligarchy paradise with the ability to accommodate Russian rebel spies. If Britain is no longer the forefront of collecting Russian intelligence, Britain's geopolitical status will be even lower after Brexit.

In fact, there is a common sense that the nerve gas developed by the Soviet Union actually exists in the CIS countries, and there is room for these chemical gas to be purchased on the black market of weapons in the CIS, and the country where the poison gas that poisons spies now exists publicly is in the CIS, not Russia.

In this way, if Britain doesn't get the real evidence, it is a very dangerous demonstration to start questioning Russia as the manipulator behind the scenes and starting diplomatic sanctions, because these British practices are basically to kill the chicken and use hay cutter, and their political purposes are unnecessary in the eyes of EU countries and the United States, and the United States or EU countries can only promise to follow Britain in sanctioning several people in Russia. After all, Britain has no complete irrefutable evidence in this case.

Now EU countries and the United States easily follow the British dance, which will hinder the recovery of EU economy and Russia, and will not do any good to the global strategy of the United States. After all, Trump has not completely implemented the economic sanctions against Russia, and Trump's diplomatic strategy is still in Asia, not Europe. It is unfair for Britain to identify Russia only by emotional speech in Congress, without clarifying the complexity of the case. It is necessary for Britain to show more evidence to the world.
