MOSCOW, July 31. /TASS/. The British side does not intend to swerve from its course towards arbitrarily interpreting the facts of the death of former Federal Security Service agent Alexander Litvinenko, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement posted on its website on Friday.
"The selective nature of the organizers of this ‘public inquiry’ and their stubborn unwillingness under any pretexts to professionally perceive the grounds of the Russian competent bodies serve as another proof that the British side does not intend to swerve from its course towards politicizing the entire process and arbitrarily interpreting the facts of the ‘Litvinenko case,’" Deputy Director of the Russian Foreign Ministry Information and Press Department Alexander Bikantov said.
