London discusses measures against Moscow

london - The British government is looking into possible new measures against Russia on Monday. A government spokesman said that Saturday, after Moscow had announced 23 British diplomats to send away from the country. 'This Russian measure was already taken into account,' the spokesman said

The Russian decision is a response to the expulsion of 23 Russian diplomats from Great Britain earlier this week because of the attack with nerve gas on former double spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia. They were found unconscious on a bank in the English city of Salisbury on Sunday, March 4.

The British accuse Russia of being behind the attack. Moscow denies.
