Pablo Miller

Pablo Miller OBE (born 1960)[1][2] was a British diplomat who was first secretary of the British embassy in Estonia from 1997.[1] In 2002 he was given the Order of the White Star, 3rd Class by the President of Estonia Arnold Rüütel.[2] He was appointed to the Order of the British Empire in 2015 for service to British foreign policy.[1][3][4]

Russian intelligence claims that Miller had in fact been working as head of the British intelligence in Tallinn, Estonia, and that Miller had been the one who had recruited Sergei Skripal to become a double agent.[1][5][6]

Miller was a member of the Royal Tank Regiment and the Royal Green Jackets in the British army.[1] He joined the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in 1990.[1] He worked in Nigeria before moving to Estonia.[1]
