A Russian Foreign Ministry official said on Wednesday that Britain may be behind a chemical attack on Yulia Skripal, daughter of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal.

&quot;Logic suggests that there are only two possible things,&quot; Vladimir Yermakov, head of the ministry&#39;s non-proliferation and arms control department, told a meeting with foreign ambassadors based in Moscow.

&quot;Either the British authorities are not able to provide protection from such a, let&#39;s say, terrorist attack on their soil, or they, whether directly or indirectly, I am not accusing anyone, have orchestrated an attack on a Russian citizen&quot;, Yermakov said.
