LUNCH WITH SERGEI SKRIPAL

Britain aims to resettle the 'poisoned' Russian ex-spy in the U.S.

On 5 March 2018, I meet Sergei Skripal for lunch at the Cafe Tatti, in McLean, Virginia.

We order Sea Scallops Provencale, and Tournedos Saute Alexandra.

I ask Sergei about what happened on 4 March 2018.

"I saw a man fiddling with the front door handle, at my house in Salisbury. Then, several hours after I left the house, I began to feel unwell. I don't remember anything after that."

Who was the man fiddling with the door handle?

"Well, he dropped his passport, and I picked it up," explains Sergei.

What was the name in the passport?

"It was Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin."
