The Russian Federation’s Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response, in co-operation with the authorised federal executive authorities, continues to carefully record the continuing egregious facts of the inhumane treatment of civilians by the authorities in Kiev, and use of social infrastructure for military purposes by Ukrainian armed formations.
Donetsk People’s Republic: in Bakhmut on the territory of school No. 2, in Chasov Yar in the building of professional school No. 77, in Novoekonomicheskoe in kindergarten Solnyshko and school No. 1, fighters of Ukrainian armed formations have equipped strongholds and placed military equipment and MLRS launchers in the surrounding area. However, the evacuation of the local population from nearby houses has not been deliberate; the Ukrainian neo-Nazis plan to use civilians as human shield.
In Nikolaev, units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces deployed artillery guns and multiple rocket launchers in the building of Zvezdochka kindergarten No 141 and on the territory of the shipbuilding lyceum.
In Dnieper, territorial defence fighters have equipped a stronghold, ammunition depot, armoured vehicles and artillery in school 119.
In Putivl, Sumy Region, Ukrainian nationalists have equipped a stronghold in Lyceum No 2 and an after-school centre, while locals are being held in basements under the pretext of ensuring their safety.
These facts once again show the Kiev regime’s complete disregard for all norms of morality and international humanitarian law. At the same time, the USA and European Union countries continue to cynically “turn a blind eye” to the numerous war crimes committed by the Ukrainian authorities, which are not discussed at the state level in Western countries, objective materials in the media sphere are sporadic and any accusations against official Kiev, including in the media, are strictly banned.
In addition, in Nikolaevka, Lugansk People’s Republic, the Kiev regime carried out another sophisticated action to discredit the Russian Armed Forces before the world community. During the provocation, militants of nationalist battalions and AFU serviceme fired artillery shells at residential buildings, killing and injuring civilians. New York Times journalists and Ukrainian journalists accompanying the nationalists filmed and photographed the strikes and their aftermath allegedly carried out by Russian units.
We warn the so-called civilised west in advance that this and other similar bloody fakes on the part of the Kiev authorities about alleged “Russian atrocities” are soon to be widely circulated in the media and on internet resources.
Such actions by the Ukrainian authorities once again demonstrate their total indifference to the fate of Ukrainian civilians.
Despite all the difficulties and obstacles imposed by the Ukrainian side, over the past day, without the participation of Kiev, 18,873 people were evacuated from dangerous areas, 2,282 of them children, and in total, since the beginning of the special military operation, 1,396,798 people have already been evacuated, of which 234,762 are children. The state border of the Russian Federation was crossed by 190,822 personal vehicles including 2,274 per day.
We continue to maintain a sufficient number of comfortable buses at checkpoints to transport people to their chosen places of residence or temporary accommodation, where hot meals are provided and qualified medical and psychological assistance is provided in a timely manner.
More than 9,500 temporary accommodation centres continue to operate in the regions of the Russian Federation. The refugees are dealt with on an individual basis and are promptly assisted with various pressing issues relating to onward accommodation, employment assistance, places for children in kindergartens and educational institutions, and the provision of entitlements to social benefits.
Over the past 24 hours, the hotline of the Interdepartmental Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Federation for Humanitarian Response, federal executive authorities, constituent entities of the Russian Federation and various NGOs received 109 requests from foreign and Ukrainian citizens to evacuate to Russia, the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, as well as to the Russian Armed Forces-controlled areas of Zaporozhye, Nikolaev, Kharkov and Kherson regions. In total there are 2,756,228 such appeals from 2,136 locations in Ukraine in the database.
In addition, 75 foreign vessels from 17 countries remain blocked in 7 Ukrainian ports (Kherson, Nikolaev, Chernomorsk, Ochakov, Odessa, Yuzhniy and Mariupol). The threat of shelling and high mine danger created by official Kiev in its internal waters and territorial sea prevents vessels from safely leaving the ports and reaching the open sea.
In confirmation of this, the Russian Federation is opening daily from 08:00 to 19:00 (Moscow time) a humanitarian corridor, which is a safe lane south-west of Ukraine’s territorial sea, 80 nautical miles long and 3 nautical miles wide.
Detailed information in English and Russian on the modus operandi of the maritime humanitarian corridor is broadcast daily every 15 minutes on VHF radio on 14 and 16 international channels in English and Russian.
At the same time, the Kiev authorities continue to avoid engaging with representatives of states and ship-owning companies to resolve the issue of ensuring the safe passage of foreign vessels to the assembly area.
The danger to navigation from Ukrainian mines drifting off their anchors along the coasts of Black Sea states remains.
The Russian Federation is taking a full range of comprehensive measures to ensure the safety of civilian navigation in the waters of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Demining detachments of the Russian Armed Forces and the EMERCOM of Russia are carrying out land and facility clearance tasks in the territory of the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics. A total of 1,620.09 hectares were checked, including 76.17 hectares, 35 buildings (including 13 socially important facilities), 1 bridge and 9.64 km of roads during the day. 9,255 explosives were detected and defused, 1,629 of them during the day.
Federal executive authorities, together with the subjects of the Russian Federation, various public organizations, patriotic movements, continue to accumulate humanitarian aid. More than 24,5 tonnes of basic necessities and food kits, including baby food and life-saving medicines, have been prepared at collection points.
The greatest contributors to the relief effort were:
Ministry of the Russian Federation for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters, Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Economic Development, Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media, Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography, Federal Agency for Maritime and River Transport, Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, the Federal Agency for Nationalities, the Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States, Compatriots Living Abroad and International Humanitarian Cooperation;
republics of Buryatia, Dagestan, Crimea, Tatarstan, Chechen Republic, Altai, Trans-Baikal, Krasnodar and Primorsky Krais, Arkhangelsk, Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, Leningrad, Moscow, Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Rostov, Tula and Ulyanovsk regions, as well as Moscow city;
Among political parties and non-profit organisations: United Russia, the People’s Front All-Russian Public Movement, the All-Russian Public Organisation of Veterans Boyevoe Bratstvo, the Russian Humanitarian Mission autonomous non-profit organisation for the support of humanitarian programmes, and the All-Russian Public and Governmental Organisation Union of Women of Russia.
Since March 2, 21,580.4 tons of humanitarian cargo have already been delivered to Ukraine, 1,039 humanitarian actions have been carried out, including 8 actions in Kherson, Zaparozhye and Kharkov regions, as well as in Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, during which 326 tons of basic necessities, medicines and food were transferred to the civilian population of the liberated areas.
On May 21, 5 humanitarian actions have been planned and are currently being carried out in Kharkov and Zaporozye regions, in Donetsk People’s Republics, during which 290 tons of basic necessities, medicine and food will be distributed.

Выступление Постоянного представителя Российской Федерации при ОБСЕ А.К.Лукашевича на заседании Постоянного совета ОБСЕ о биологических программах и деятельности США на Украине, Вена, 19 мая 2022 года

Господин Председатель,
В ходе спецоперации на Украине обнаруживаются всё новые документальные доказательства того, что в непосредственной близости от российских границ в течение нескольких лет создавались, по сути, компоненты биологического оружия – в нарушение Конвенции о запрещении разработки, производства и накопления запасов бактериологического (биологического) и токсинного оружия и об их уничтожении. На заседании Постоянного совета 22 апреля мы уже затрагивали тему проводимых Соединёнными Штатами Америки военно-биологических исследований на Украине. Рассказывали о конкретных проектах, включающих опыты над людьми. Сегодня хотим привлечь внимание к новым появившимся обстоятельствам, подтверждающим непосредственные угрозы от такой деятельности для международной безопасности.
Как мы уже говорили, сеть работавших под эгидой Пентагона биологических лабораторий охватывала целый ряд украинских городов. Это более чем 30 объектов. Как оказалось, одним из опорных пунктов этой сети стал Мариуполь, который был превращен в центр сбора и паспортизации возбудителей холеры. Отбиравшиеся там штаммы направлялись сначала в Киев, а затем – в США. По информации Министерства обороны России, эта деятельность проводилась с 2014 года. Помимо холеры, в лабораториях Мариуполя работали с крайне опасными возбудителями туляремии и сибирской язвы – об этом говорит акт уничтожения патогенных микрооганизмов от 25 февраля 2022 года. Часть этой «коллекции» ликвидировать не успели. Из обнаруженных в городе биолабораторий изъято 124 патогенных штамма. Среди них обнаружены также возбудители нехарактерных для ветеринарии заболеваний – брюшного тифа, паратифов, газовой гангрены.
Лабораторных исследований организаторам этих программ было мало. Они ставили опыты над людьми. Приведём примеры циничных экспериментов над мирным населением.
В 2020 году в населенном пункте Стеновое Луганской Народной Республики среди несовершеннолетних были распространены фальшивые денежные купюры, заражённые штаммом туберкулеза, устойчивым к противотуберкулезным препаратам. В соответствии с заключением Луганской республиканской санитарно-эпидемиологической станции, купюры были заражены, вероятнее всего, искусственным путем.
В этой связи вызывает особую обеспокоенность информация о направлении Киевом в восточные регионы БПЛА, оснащенных оборудованием для распыления биосубстанций. Есть информация, что в январе этого года Украина приобрела через посредников более 50 таких устройств. 9 марта нынешнего года три таких дрона, оснащенных 30-литровыми ёмкостями и системой распыления, были обнаружены российскими военными в Херсонской области. Еще десять замечены в конце апреля в районе Каховки. Неужели и там намеревались распылять какую-то заразу?
Появляются новые подробности об экспериментах Пентагона над гражданами Украины в психиатрической больнице под Харьковом. Основной категорией подопытных оказалась группа пациентов мужского пола в возрасте 40-60 лет с высокой стадией физического истощения. Для сокрытия принадлежности к США проводившие биологические исследования эксперты прибывали через территории третьих стран. Но информация об участниках этих программ всё равно есть. Например, относительно уроженки штата Флорида Линды Опорто, непосредственно принимавшей участие в таких работах.
Есть основания полагать, что подобные опыты стали частью осознанной политики Вашингтона и Киева. Показания должностного лица, которое в прошлом проходило службу в органах безопасности Украины, подтверждают, что фактически на территории Украины на протяжении долгих лет был введен прямой запрет на любые мероприятия, направленные на защиту безопасности граждан Украины со стороны собственных госорганов, когда речь шла о военных биолабораториях США. То есть фактически вся деятельность, которая осуществлялась американцами на территории Украины, была выведена в зону запрета для контроля с точки зрения соблюдения требований безопасности самих украинских граждан. Подобный сговор между украинской властью и военными структурами США ещё раз подтверждает факт внешнего управления Украиной и её эксплуатацию Соединенными Штатами Америки в своих интересах.
Какие можно сделать предварительные выводы из всех этих обстоятельств. Выделим международно-правовой аспект: по меньшей мере есть признаки того, что в последние годы Вашингтон и Киев не соблюдали Конвенцию о запрете биологического и токсинного оружия.
Работы в лабораториях велись в абсолютно закрытом режиме, исследовались патогенные микроорганизмы – агенты биологического оружия. По сути на Украине отрабатывались возможные методики и механизмы дестабилизации эпидемиологической обстановки в регионе. Это прямо говорит о том, что биологические лаборатории США на Украине создавались вовсе не для поиска эффективных средств защиты от опасных заболеваний и широкого международного сотрудничества. Их основная задача – сбор биологических материалов и изучение в своих целях специфики распространения вирусов и опасных заболеваний. США практически превратили Украину в полигон для разработки компонентов биологического оружия и скрытого тестирования новых образцов фармпрепаратов. Уже собранные факты свидетельствуют о наличии угрозы для всего мира, а не только для украинцев и граждан соседних государств. Угроза обусловлена прежде всего тем, что такая деятельность, по сути, была выведена из правового поля и никем не контролировалась. Не говоря о морально-этической стороне вопроса, при которой жители Украины выступали в роли своеобразного «подопытного биоматериала».
Наряду с проведением секретных военно-биологических программ установлены факты предоставления как США, так и Украиной неполной или недостоверной информации в международные инстанции. Во всех отчётах Украины сообщается об отсутствии национальных программ исследований и разработок в области биологической защиты. Кроме того, Украиной в ряде случаев не предоставлялась информация о вспышках инфекционных заболеваний. Например, в 2017 году украинские власти не сообщили о симптомах ботулизма в Киеве и Херсоне, а также гепатита А в Николаеве. В 2019 году не объявили о массовых признаках дифтерии, хотя было зафиксировано распространение этой болезни в пяти регионах. Украина не информировала об участии военного персонала в работе лабораторий, а также фактах пересылки биоматериалов, финансировании объектов и программ военными ведомствами.
Главный вопрос – как вся эта биологическая деятельность соотносится с конкретными нормами Конвенции о запрещении разработки, производства и накопления запасов бактериологического (биологического) и токсинного оружия и об их уничтожении 1971 года (КБТО). Данный ключевой международный документ регулирует эту область исследований. К сегодняшнему дню 183 государства обязались не разрабатывать, не производить и не накапливать биологическое оружие. При этом в Подготовительном комитете 9-й Обзорной конференции КБТО в Женеве в апреле с.г. США не предоставили внятной информации о своих биологических программах на Украине. В свете имеющихся свидетельств отговорок, что программа носит чисто мирный характер, международному сообществу явно недостаточно. Дополнительную озабоченность вызывает линия Вашингтона на противодействие укреплению режима КБТО, включая блокирование создания механизма верификации выполнения её положений и инициативы о введении меры доверия в виде отчётности о военно-биологической деятельности за пределами национальной территории. Получается, что у Вашингтона всё же «рыльце в пушку»?
В России создана парламентская комиссия по расследованию деятельности биолабораторий США на Украине, предполагается наладить широкий международный информационный обмен по этой теме. Проводится анализ отчётов США и Украины за пять лет по исполнению Конвенции о биооружии. Россия формирует пакет документов, чтобы в ближайшее время запустить официальное международное расследование военно-биологической деятельности на Украине. В частности, будут задействованы статьи 5 и 6 Конвенции о запрещении биооружия для проведения расследования биологической деятельности на Украине.
Статья 5 Конвенции о запрещении биологического и токсинного оружия гласит в частности, что «государства-участники… Конвенции обязуются консультироваться и сотрудничать друг с другом в решении любых вопросов, которые могут возникнуть в отношении цели или в связи с выполнением положений Конвенции».
Статья 6 КБТО гласит, что «любое государство-участник… Конвенции, которое констатирует, что какое-либо другое государство- участник действует в нарушение обязательств, вытекающих из положений Конвенции, может подать жалобу в СБ ООН».
Хочу прямо заявить: у США больше не получится замалчивать эту ситуацию, просто называя открывшиеся данные «ложью и пропагандой», как мы не раз слышали в этом зале, Вашингтон будет отвечать по существу – и не пустыми лозунгами, а по выявленным фактам. Россия будет настаивать на открытых обсуждениях этой опасной проблемы в профильных международных инстанциях, включая СБ ООН, именно потому, что проводимые США военно-биологические программы несут глобальную угрозу. Если украинский режим равнодушен к судьбам проживающих на территории нынешней Украины людей, это не означает, что другие страны мира будут оставаться безразличными к вопросам биологической безопасности собственных граждан.
Благодарю за внимание.

Statement by the Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE A.K. Lukashevich at the meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council on biological programs and US activities in Ukraine, Vienna, May 19, 2022

1074-20-05-2022
Mr Chairman,
During a special operation in Ukraine, more and more documentary evidence is being discovered that in the immediate vicinity of the Russian borders, in fact, components of biological weapons have been created for several years – in violation of the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and about their destruction. At the meeting of the Permanent Council on April 22, we already touched on the topic of military biological research conducted by the United States of America in Ukraine. They talked about specific projects involving experiments on people. Today we want to draw attention to the new circumstances that have emerged, confirming the direct threats from such activities to international security.
As we have already said, the network of biological laboratories operating under the auspices of the Pentagon covered a number of Ukrainian cities. This is more than 30 objects. As it turned out, one of the strongholds of this network was Mariupol, which was turned into a center for the collection and certification of cholera pathogens. The strains selected there were sent first to Kyiv and then to the USA. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, this activity has been carried out since 2014. In addition to cholera, the laboratories of Mariupol worked with extremely dangerous pathogens of tularemia and anthrax – this is evidenced by the act of destruction of pathogenic microorganisms of February 25, 2022. Part of this “collection” did not have time to liquidate. 124 pathogenic strains were seized from the biological laboratories found in the city. Among them, pathogens of diseases uncharacteristic for veterinary medicine were also found – typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, gas gangrene.
There were few laboratory studies for the organizers of these programs. They experimented on people. Let us give examples of cynical experiments on civilians.
In 2020, counterfeit banknotes infected with a strain of tuberculosis resistant to anti-tuberculosis drugs were distributed among minors in the village of Stenovoe in the Luhansk People’s Republic. In accordance with the conclusion of the Lugansk Republican Sanitary and Epidemiological Station, the banknotes were most likely infected artificially.
In this regard, information about the dispatch by Kyiv to the eastern regions of UAVs equipped with equipment for spraying biosubstances is of particular concern. There is information that in January of this year, Ukraine purchased more than 50 such devices through intermediaries. On March 9 this year, three such drones, equipped with 30-liter tanks and a spray system, were discovered by the Russian military in the Kherson region. Ten more were seen at the end of April near Kakhovka. Did they intend to spray some kind of infection there too?
New details are emerging about the Pentagon’s experiments on Ukrainian citizens in a psychiatric hospital near Kharkov. The main category of experimental subjects was a group of male patients aged 40-60 years with a high stage of physical exhaustion. To hide their belonging to the United States, the experts who conducted biological research arrived through the territories of third countries. But information about the participants of these programs is still there. For example, regarding a native of Florida, Linda Oporto, who was directly involved in such work.
There is reason to believe that such experiments have become part of the conscious policy of Washington and Kyiv. The testimony of an official who in the past served in the security agencies of Ukraine confirms that, in fact, on the territory of Ukraine for many years a direct ban was introduced on any measures aimed at protecting the security of Ukrainian citizens by their own state agencies, when it came to military biological laboratories USA. That is, in fact, all the activities that were carried out by the Americans on the territory of Ukraine were brought to the prohibition zone for control in terms of compliance with the security requirements of the Ukrainian citizens themselves. Such a collusion between the Ukrainian authorities and the US military structures once again confirms the fact of external control of Ukraine and its exploitation by the United States of America in its own interests.
What preliminary conclusions can be drawn from all these circumstances. Let’s single out the international legal aspect: at least there are signs that in recent years Washington and Kyiv have not complied with the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons.
Work in the laboratories was carried out in an absolutely closed regime, pathogenic microorganisms were studied – agents of biological weapons. In fact, possible methods and mechanisms for destabilizing the epidemiological situation in the region were being worked out in Ukraine. This directly indicates that the US biological laboratories in Ukraine were not created at all to search for effective Means protection against dangerous diseases and broad international cooperation. Their main task is to collect biological materials and study for their own purposes the specifics of the spread of viruses and dangerous diseases. The United States has practically turned Ukraine into a testing ground for the development of biological weapons components and covert testing of new samples of pharmaceuticals. The facts already collected testify to the presence of a threat to the whole world, and not only to Ukrainians and citizens of neighboring states. The threat is primarily due to the fact that such activities, in fact, were removed from the legal field and were not controlled by anyone. Not to mention the moral and ethical side of the issue, in which the inhabitants of Ukraine acted as a kind of “experimental biomaterial”.
Along with the conduct of secret military biological programs, facts have been established that both the United States and Ukraine provided incomplete or unreliable information to international authorities. All reports from Ukraine report the absence of national research and development programs in the field of biological protection. In addition, Ukraine in a number of cases did not provide information on outbreaks of infectious diseases. For example, in 2017 Ukrainian authorities did not report symptoms of botulism in Kyiv and Kherson, nor hepatitis A in Mykolaiv. In 2019, mass signs of diphtheria were not announced, although the spread of this disease was recorded in five regions. Ukraine did not inform about the participation of military personnel in the work of laboratories, as well as the facts of sending biomaterials, financing of facilities and programs by military departments.
The main question is how all this biological activity relates to the specific rules of the 1971 Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on Their Destruction (BTWC). This key international document regulates this area of research. To date, 183 states have pledged not to develop, produce or stockpile biological weapons. At the same time, in the Preparatory Committee of the 9th BTWC Review Conference in Geneva in April this year. The United States did not provide clear information about its biological programs in Ukraine. In light of the existing evidence of excuses that the program is purely peaceful, the international community is clearly not enough. Of additional concern is Washington’s line of countering the strengthening of the BTWC regime, including blocking the creation of a mechanism for verifying the implementation of its provisions and the initiative to introduce a confidence-building measure in the form of reporting on military biological activities outside the national territory. It turns out that Washington still has a “stigma in the cannon”?
A parliamentary commission has been set up in Russia to investigate the activities of US biological laboratories in Ukraine, and it is planned to establish a wide international information exchange on this topic. An analysis is made of the reports of the United States and Ukraine for five years on the implementation of the Convention on Bioweapons. Russia is forming a package of documents in order to launch an official international investigation of military biological activities in Ukraine in the near future. In particular, articles 5 and 6 of the Convention on the Prohibition of Bioweapons will be used to conduct an investigation of biological activities in Ukraine.
Article 5 of the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons states, inter alia, that “the States Parties … to the Convention undertake to consult and cooperate with each other in the resolution of any questions that may arise with respect to the purpose of or in connection with the implementation of the provisions of the Convention.”
Article 6 of the BTWC states that “any state party to … the Convention that finds that any other state party is acting in violation of obligations arising from the provisions of the Convention may file a complaint with the UNSC.”
I want to state bluntly: the United States will no longer be able to hush up this situation by simply calling the revealed data “lies and propaganda,” as we have heard more than once in this hall, Washington will respond to the point – and not with empty slogans, but with revealed facts. Russia will insist on open discussions of this dangerous problem in relevant international institutions, including the UN Security Council, precisely because the US-led military biological programs pose a global threat. If the Ukrainian regime is indifferent to the fate of the people living on the territory of present-day Ukraine, this does not mean that other countries of the world will remain indifferent to the issues of biological security of their own citizens.
Thank you for attention.
Russia is serious and what is even more serious, is the involvement of the USA in Ukraine, at developing Bio-Weapons…

Frosty and bitterly cold…
The little baby birds all had to get out their winter coats again for last night. So this morning mamma sparrow in the front yard was looking at me as if I had something to do with this cold. She sat in her plum tree and chirped at me. Winter coat on, stocking hat and gloves on. She was not happy…
Mamma sparrow in the back yard, looked at me from under the edge of the roof where her nest is and said, bring me some seeds so that I do not have to come out and the Wagtail at the backyard, peaked over the edge where her nest is and said, “Do what you want, I am not running away this morning! Too Cold…”
So I talked to each of them and assured them that I was in no mood to stir up trouble either. It just is too cold…
Yesterday, as I worked in the yard. I felt little eyes upon me. I was under the plum trees and the sparrows were above me chirping away. I have been noticing something interesting…
I looked up at them and they stopped chirping. They just stared at me. I looked away and they started to chirp again. I looked up at them and they stared at me silently. These little ones watch you and realize that you are watching them…
If I ignore them, I can be within touching distance and they do not care. Yet, if I focus upon them, as in look directly at them. They immediately shut up and stare right back at me. It is as if, “What? What you want?”
I have a yard full of little baby birds, as I call them and they are happy happy as I work around the yard. They wait for me to dig, cut and mess things up in the yard and then they get the bugs and whatnot’s that I stirred up. I mow and behind me are little baby birds picking at the ground I just mowed…
It is a mutual relationship…
I ignore them and enjoy the beautiful symphonies all day long and they eat what I make run away from my work. It works and it makes me happy to listen to the sounds all day…
Except, do not pay attention to them!
I could not imagine a world without the beautiful music from Baby Birds!

Key Russian lawmaker reveals illicit Ebola, smallpox research at US-run Ukraine biolabs
According to the legislator, the information obtained indicates “aggressive goal-setting that underpins the foundation of these programs, de facto implemented by US Department of Defense on Ukrainian soil”
MOSCOW, May 20. /TASS/. The US researched Ebola and smallpox viruses in Ukraine, says Irina Yarovaya, Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Commission on Investigation of US Biological Laboratories in Ukraine.
“Today, we presented an analysis of which pathogens the US was particularly interested in in Ukraine,” she told reporters Friday. “Aside from the pathogens that are territorially bound to Ukraine, [the laboratories] researched viruses and pathogens that are endemically very far from Ukraine, such as Ebola and smallpox.”
According to the legislator, the information obtained indicates “aggressive goal-setting that underpins the foundation of these programs, de facto implemented by US Department of Defense on Ukrainian soil.”
“Unfortunately, it is necessary to particularly emphasize that the betrayal that the Ukrainian regime carried out against its own people has effectively left Ukrainian citizens defenseless in the face of these manipulations, experiments and clandestine research that the US is carrying out on Ukrainian territory,” Yarovaya underscored.
She noted that Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Director Sergey Naryshkin spoke as the main expert at Friday’s commission meeting.
“I would like to underscore that the dialogue that we had with the SVR chief today, combined with the proof obtained by the commission, fully confirms the US-created network of biological intelligence worldwide and the implementation of active military-biological exploitation of the globe, and Ukraine in particular. This essentially poses a serious global threat,” Yarovaya warned.
According to the lawmaker, Russia’s main goal today is to guarantee the protection of its national interests and the security of the Russian people.
“But at the same time, [it should] urge the global community to seriously get to the bottom of this secret and dangerous military biological activity, implemented by the US. So that comprehensive measures pertaining to common, equal and indivisible security could be developed. Given the distinction between peaceful and non-peaceful use of bacteriological research and the study of toxins, it must be completely transparent and controlled. And there simply must not be any bacteriological weapons in the world, this is Russia’s principal position,” Yarovaya stressed.
