BiohazardMOSCOW, Mar 12The United States has turned Ukraine into a real «superrange» for testing the means and methods of conducting biological warfare, thereby violating the convention on the prohibition of the development, production and stockpiling of biological and toxin weapons, microbiologist Igor, a former member of the UN Commission on Biological and Chemical Weapons, told RIA Novosti Nikulin. «Ukraine has actually been turned into a 'super range' for developing technologies related to biological weapons,» Nikulin emphasized. as a result, outbreaks of diseases and even epidemics raged in Ukraine since 2014. «Pneumonic plague, anthrax, and all sorts of exotic diseases such as Q fever appeared,» the expert said. «That is, this indicates that the United States and Ukraine are violating the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons on a full scale. They developed new types of weapons, produced and stockpiled them, violating all three commandments that make up the convention,» Nikulin noted. It is already clear that hundreds of liters of culture fluid were prepared in Ukraine to grow dangerous pathogens. “It is clear that this is not a laboratory, but a real industrial production,” the agency’s interlocutor added. The Russian Ministry of Defense earlier held a presentation from which it follows that the United States spent more than $ 200 million on the work of biological laboratories in Ukraine, which participated in the American military biological program and dealt, in particular, with plague and anthrax pathogens. On the territory of Ukraine, a network of more than 30 biological laboratories was formed that worked in the interests of the Pentagon, said General — Lieutenant Igor Kirillov. Everything for the continuation of the US military biological program has already been removed from Ukraine after the start of the Russian special military operation, he said. In connection with the facts of US military biological activities in Ukraine, the Russian Federation does not exclude the launch of a consultation mechanism under the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons (BTWC) , Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zhao Liqian, commenting on information about US-funded biological laboratories in Ukraine, urged the United States to clarify its biological militarization activities at home and abroad.
