The Kremlin said it regretted the EU's decision to recall its envoy to Russia after the bloc backed Britain's view that Moscow is likely behind the poisoning of a former double agent.

"As for the decision taken, we regret in this context that again such decisions are taken using the wording 'highly likely' and judgements are based on this. We don't agree with this and we repeat again that Russia absolutely definitely has nothing to do with the Skripal case," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
