Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has announced that it
now willing to work with British law enforcement agencies after
it said Britain withdrew "unfounded accusations" originally
leveled against Moscow regarding its alleged role in the affair.
Former Russian intelligent agent Alexander Litvinenko died of
radiation poisoning from polonium-210 in London in November 2006.
A cavalcade of anti-Vladimir Putin Russian exiles in Britain and
elsewhere blamed Putin for the murder and they managed to convince
the British government of then-Prime Minister Tony Blair of the
Kremlin's involvement. British-Russian relations went into a deep
freeze as a result.
On November 30, 2006, WMR reported: "There is increasing
evidence that the radioactive poisoning assassination of ex-KGB
and FSB agent and Kremlin critic Alexander Litvinenko was the
result of a plot by anti-Vladimir Putin criminal syndicates based
in Britain, Israel, Ukraine, and Poland to embarrass the Russian
government.

"Suspicions about the role of the exiled Russian-Israeli
criminal syndicates in the poisoning of Litvinenko, including
that headed by Litvinenko's friend, wanted oligarch Boris Berezovsky,
re-surfaced after former Russian Prime Minister Yegor Gaidar became
violently ill after eating breakfast at a conference he was attending
in Dublin, Ireland. Ireland's banking secrecy laws has made it
a favorite location for the Russian-Israeli Mafia."
The agreement between the FSB and Britain indicates that Britain
has now decided that its original contention of the Kremlin's
involvement in the Litvinenko death was unfounded and both sides
are now prepared to investigate the actual perpetrators.
