Russia denounces 'draconian' sanctions US

washington - Russia has reacted angrily to the 'draconian' sanctions announced by the United States. The Russian embassy in the US mentions the accusation that Moscow is responsible for an attack with the nerve gas Novitsjok 'far-fetched.'

Washington has announced new sanctions against Russia for a murder attempt on a former double spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter in England. Russia has always denied having anything to do with it. The embassy says that Moscow is in favor of an 'open and transparent investigation' into the Salisbury incident.
