The video in my linked article supports that assertion in the first 20 seconds.

Nope. Nothing in there said anything about answering whether it was Russia or Russia. Anything else? Or did you make that up?

Putin and his state run media basically do the exact same thing to all those other candidates that the DNC and Hillary did to Bernie . Does Putin even bother to debate the other candidates ?

The video talks about an "ultimatum":
"The UK says a Soviet developed toxin was used to poison a former Russian spy on British soil and has demanded an explanation from the Kremlin. But Moscow said on Tuesday that it's going to ignore that ultimatum, that is, until the UK hands over samples of the alleged nerve agent used in the attempted murder of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia, something Moscow says is an obligation under the Chemical Weapons Convention. 'Before issuing ultimatums to report before the British Government within 24 hours, it's better to follow your own obligations in accordance with international law, in this case with the Chemical Weapons Convention'."
The only ultimatum I'm aware of is the one Theresa May talked about:
Quote:
May says either Russia ordered the attack, or it has lost control of its stock of the nerve agent involved.
She says Boris Johnson, the foreign secretary, summoned the Russian ambassador to the Foreign Office today. He said Russia must explain which of the two possible explanations is the correct one. And it must reply by the end of tomorrow, she says.
Are you aware of any other ultimatums?

The state run media is only one of hundreds of channels Russians can watch. They can watch criticism of Putin on CNN, Fox, etc in Russian.

Of course it's allowed. Putin chooses not to debate, just as any candidate in the US can opt out of the debates.

I don't see an ultimatum at all. Maybe I'm stupid. Can you break down the ultimatum for me because I'm not seeing it.

I've already addressed that here. Read the article I linked to.

How does that equate to it being either Russia or Russia?

I don't understand your game. I'm done playing. It's in the quote:

So that means it's either Russia or someone else who got it from Russia. Not Russia or Russia.

There's a big difference between the two. As you've said, it's been decades since this agent was developed. It makes sense that the UK would want Russia to explain if some of it got into another person's hands. My concern is that Russia seems to be acting very strangely by not offering whatever assistance they can in the matter. That makes it look guilty IMO.

The only "assistance" the UK is looking for is an admission of guilt that Russia got this into someone's hands. Russia said it's not theirs.
The UK is known to have this toxin also; so why does Russia have to admit it was their carelessness, unless your attitude is "DURR, PUTIN, DURRR"?
I don't know who did it, but your attitude is clearly "DURRR, PUTIN, DURRR!"

Russia DID get it into someone's hands. Whether they literally put it in the hands of a couple of assassins with orders to kill these people or they developed it, thus allowing it to get into someone's hands, or anything in between, they are the ones who made it all possible.
Why is it unreasonable to find out from Russia whatever possible vectors this weapon that THEY DEVELOPED might have used to get into these people's system?
