		</div><p>Russia has sharply criticised the conclusions of a UK inquiry into the 2006 poisoning death of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko.</p>
<p>The report by Robert Owen found there is a “strong probability” that Russia’s FSB spy agency directed the killing, and the operation was “probably approved” by Russian president Vladimir Putin.</p>
<p>However, Mr Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters today that “such a quasi-investigation such as the one being talked about today undoubtedly is able only to still further poison the atmosphere of our bilateral relations”.</p>
<p>He added that the report “cannot be accepted by us as a verdict”.</p>
<p>The Russian Embassy in London issued a statement saying they consider Mr Litvinenko’s case – and the way the investigation was handled – to be a “blatant provocation” from British authorities.</p>
<p>In Moscow, Russia’s Investigative Committee said the Litvinenko investigation ceased being a criminal investigation and had transformed into a full-fledged political event last year.</p>
<p>Mr Litvinenko died in November 2006 after he drank tea laced with polonium-210 at a London hotel.</p>
