Kremlin Says Litvinenko’s Death Is Tragedy
“The death of a man is always a tragedy. Time to act for law enforcement bodies of Britain, where Litvinenko had been living recently,” Dmitry Peskov, 1st deputy of Putin’s briefer, said as quoted by Echo of Moscow.
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin hasn’t commented on Litvinenko’s death yet. Putin is in Helsinki now, attending the summit of the E.U. and Russia.
Mysteriously poisoned Alexander Litvinenko, a former Half Colonel of Federal Security Service and vocal critic of President Vladimir Putin, died in the London University College Hospital at 00:21 a.m. November 24.
Litvinenko was admitted to hospital three weeks ago after the meeting with Andrey Lugovoy, former guard of Boris Berezovsky, and some unknown man going under the name of Vladimir. Vladimir is the main suspect for poisoning Litvinenko.
