The creaks secretly moved from Britain to another country: what is known about their life

Former GRU officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia, whom they tried to poison in Britain with the nerve agent Novichok, moved to New Zealand, the Sunday Times found out, citing high-ranking government sources, writes. with the BBC.

According to the publication, before leaving for New Zealand, Skripali lived for a year in a safe place in Britain under the protection of a secret intelligence service (MI-6).

A government source said Sunday Timesthat the former double agent and his daughters changed their identities and provided financial assistance to start life in another country.

The publication found that the Skripals keep in touch with their former neighbors, Ross Cassidy and Moe, and in 2019 sent them a Christmas card without a return address.

“It’s nice that they remember us. But it’s unlikely we’ll ever see them again,” Cassidy said.

Former GRU officer Sergei Skripal was convicted of espionage in Russia, and in 2010 he was exchanged for Russians (some of them are officers of the SVR) who were arrested in the United States and flew to the UK.

Sergei and Julia Skripal were discovered on the afternoon of March 4, 2018 in the center of the English Salisbury on a bench in the square unconscious.

British authorities accused Russian intelligence services of trying to poison the Skripals with the nerve agent Novichok and named two Russians who entered Britain under the names Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov as suspects.

Later, journalists found out that GRU Colonel Anatoly Chepiga was hiding under the name “Ruslan Boshirov”, and “Alexander Petrov” was actually an officer of the same Russian special service, Alexander Mishkin.

The poisoning of the Skripals led to a serious aggravation of relations between Britain and Russia: London sent 23 Russian diplomats, Moscow responded in the same way. Soon, dozens of countries supported Britain, announcing the expulsion of Russian diplomats.

The Russian side has consistently denied its involvement in the attempt on Sergei Skripal.

Squeaked in New Zealand. Or in Canada. Or anywhere in the world

Rumors that Sergei and Julia Skripal will move or have already moved to New Zealand appeared a few months ago. But no one succeeded in getting serious confirmation of this from reliable sources.

It is important to note that even now the Times does not refer to sources in the intelligence services, but to a certain “high-ranking government source.”

If Skripaley was indeed transported to New Zealand as a result of a complex and expensive operation, then why now report their new place of residence in public?

New Zealand is a small country, and the Russian-speaking diaspora there is several times smaller than in the UK or the USA. Sergei Skripal speaks English with a noticeable Russian accent. And, given the constant publications about Russian spies in the press, the appearance in some small and quiet New Zealand town of an older man and a young girl speaking with a Russian accent would immediately attract the attention of neighbors and raise a lot of questions about their past and the reasons for moving.

Even if Sergei and Yulia have had their appearance altered, they both have a scar on their neck from a tracheostomy, a procedure in which doctors inserted a breathing tube down their throats in an attempt to cope with seizures caused by exposure to a poisonous substance (according to British authorities, it was Novichok ").

Sergei and Julia Skripal would hardly want to live endlessly in a closed house under the protection of MI-6. Both before and after poisoning, they repeatedly showed a desire to live an ordinary life. It is known that Julia periodically exchanges messages with her friends. And Sergei at least twice called his mother in Yaroslavl. According to the Times, he also sent a greeting card to his former neighbors in Salisbury.

It is possible that Sergey and Julia Skripal have already made new neighbors and started life from scratch at some new point on the world map. But here is where exactly this point is located, we are unlikely to know for sure in the foreseeable future.
