Lone diplomat

Emma Nottingham, a British diplomat, attends a briefing at the Russian foreign ministry where Vladimir Yermakov, a foreign ministry official, suggested the UK was hiding evidence about the poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal. Miss Nottingham, who was one of the few diplomats to attend – the British ambassador and representatives of the US, France and Germany decided to boycott – claimed it was “highly likely” that Moscow was behind the poisoning in Salisbury.
