Diplomats Wednesday were holding emergency talks on the poisoning of a former Russian spy after the global chemical arms watchdog confirmed British findings that he was the victim of a nerve agent attack.
Diplomatic sources said the closed-door meeting of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in The Hague had begun. It was called by Britain after OPCW experts agreed that former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal had been poisoned with a nerve agent last month in the British town of Salisbury.
