Why Russian agents attacked Skribal?

Why Russian agents attacked Skribal?

Trump has ordered new sanctions against Russia because of the Novochoke-case, where 5 persons were injured, and two of them were dead. Attackers have been claimed to being high-ranking GRU officials or at least another one has ranked as colonel, if we would believe about Wikipedia in this case.

The attack against Sergei Skribal is a very complicated thing. The attackers used poison, which connects the case straight to the Russian government. And the men who made that strike were recognized to GRU agents. Those things, unfortunately, show that the person, who is behind that attentate is working in the Russian government. This Skripal attentate has similarities with the Polonium-murder, where the ex-KGB agent has been murdered by using Polonium-210, which is very highly radioactive material.

And there are two possibilities. One of them is that the Russian government is behind those cases or the Russian laboratories would have security leak. If those materials like Novichoke and Polonium would get to wrong hands, the results will be devastating.

This is a very interesting thing, which has damaged the relationship between Russia and the Western World. And the thing is that even if the Russian government confess that it has nothing to do with that crime, the actors, in this case, were identified and easy to connect with the crime.

This is the thing, what wonders me. Why those men used poison named "Novichoke"? And why they didn't even try to hide their tracks? Did Russians or the persons, who were behind that action think, that the nobody even dares to say a thing about this case?

When we are thinking about the weapons that were used, we must ask, why those killers didn't choose assault rifles or some normal poison like Ricin? Those things could not so easily be connected to the Russian authorities? This kind of actions is really bad for the reputation of any government in the world. So who gave orders about this strike? Those people, who made this crime didn't operate by their motion.

If those murders would be done by using the assault rifle, that thing could be explained about the personal revenge against Skripal. In that case, the killer could claim that Skribal has made something to self while that man worked in KGB, and then the thing would not so easy to connect to the Russian government.
Sometimes when I think about the relationship, what KGB had to power, there could be persons even in the highest positions in Russian security and governmental authorities would be found men and women, whose career that service destroyed during Soviet era. Those people might have the opportunity to hide their past when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.

So could there some person, who has something hidden in the past, what has something to do with Skripal? This kind of things are very important things and this kind of cases must be solved because if some government kills people, who are against its policy, must the other nations give a signal that this kind of things is not tolerated. And if the hardcore killing chemicals and radioactive material can be stolen from the laboratories, that thing can cause risk for many people.

Gestures are important in international relationships

Gestures are important in international relationships

Today Donald Trump is made history and visited in North Korea, and this might be a big step for the relationship between the USA and both Koreas, or it might be "only one step". The thing is that North Korea or its leader is even meet Trump is a really nice thing or sign, but as we know but the real results are the things, what are needed. And one thing is clear, something is happening in the country, which has been closed many years, which makes this situation interesting. International relationships with the Western world and North Korea are really complicated.

And that means there are many things, what must be done before the relationship with that country is normalizing. This thing can be done when the family of Kim would leave the power to somebody else, and that thing would be very far away from the realistic situation. Also, South Korea has something to explain with the history, and we must realize that the military leadership in that country has been changed to a civilian government in 1987, that means that there might be something, what somebody wants to hide. But this is the thing in every non-democratic governments.

But when we are starting to think about symbols, the thing that Kim would even meet Trump is a very big gesture. The thing is that Kim would meet and talk, means that there could be some kind of problems with the nuclear program, or there are some other problems. Because of the things, what Kim is done after he took the place in power, is happen the change. That change is that this man really wants to talk also with other leaders of the nations than Vladimir Putin.

This is a very good way to start the speculation that would Kim want to remove some parts of isolation, and maybe establish some kind of special economic areas, what has raised China one of the greatest economic powers in the World. And maybe Kim is planning to make the same thing with North Korea. Maybe Kim is planning to make the same style areas in North Korea what Hong Kong and Shanghai are in China, and also try to make Western nations forget that many people are living in the prison camps in North Korea.

Something has been happening because the man who started his career as the head of the state with cannon fire against South Korea and made a couple of nuclear weapons is suddenly starting to talk with other of his main enemies. What is the reason for that change? Why the line of that man has been changed, and he wants to meet Trump? Is there something, what we don't know about North Korea and what it could be?

I sometimes have thought, that could the leader of North Korea changed secretly by the own government because they have afraid that the "original" leader would cause a nuclear war, or they have afraid for their lives when the unstable person would rise in the power in their country. In that case, the leader could execute the entire government, and maybe something has happened because this kind of meetings has become true. But who knows what happen in that closed nation? There might be nobody except Kim, who knows the truth, why the line has been changed suddenly.

 Persons like Kim might have many motives, and those persons do not always tell them to the nearest people around him. So the change of the politics of North Korea might remain in mystery and the future shows, what kind of results those meetings bring in the problems of that peninsula.
