"The leaders of the Pentagon should be aware of the fact that if the items of the laboratories are delivered to Russian experts, they are very likely to prove that Ukraine and the U.S. have violated the Biological Weapons Convention, by using synthetic biology methods to enhance the pathogenicity of microorganisms. Only this can explain why these laboratories were in such a rush to destroy the traces of their operations."

A network of more than 30 biological laboratories was set up in the Ukrainian territory as ordered by the U.S. Department of Defense, a Russian general claimed on Monday.
General-Lieutenant Igor Kirillov, Commander of the Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Troops of the Russian Armed Forces, said at a press briefing session held on Monday that those laboratories took charge of relevant bio-weapon researches in three tracks.
"Those labs mainly work in three areas: first, they monitor the biological conditions in areas where, as the Pentagon said, NATO military contingents is likely to be deployed; Second, they collect and ship hazardous microbial strains to the U.S.; Third, they investigate potential bio-weapon pathogens that can be transmitted to humans in specific areas with natural lesions," Kirillov said.
Western countries have been conducting various biological and infectious disease experimental projects in Ukraine, having invested more than 200 million U.S. dollars, Kirillov stressed.
Thousands of patient serum samples were also collected in the country and shipped to the research institutes in the U.S.. The operations of the biolaboratories have brought about significant economic losses to countries such as Ukraine.
"We think that back in 2007, a more contagious African swine fever virus was designed in the Georgian biology laboratory administered by the Pentagon. Its spread has brought significant economic losses to several countries, including Ukraine and Poland," he said.
The Russian side is keeping analyzing the biological situations in Ukraine. A file seized by Russian troops showed that the Ukrainian Health Ministry had ordered for the complete destruction of biological reagents in its laboratories, with all necessary materials needed in further military biological programs transferred out the country.
More than 320 containers in total have been destroyed so far, with the work of the bio-lab in Lviv involving plague, anthrax and brucellosis pathogens, and the projects studied in Kharkiv and Portava related to diphtheria, salmonellosis and dysentery pathogens, according to the Russian military's analysis of the destruction behavior.
"The leaders of the Pentagon should be aware of the fact that if the items of the laboratories are delivered to Russian experts, they are very likely to prove that Ukraine and the U.S. have violated the Biological Weapons Convention, by using synthetic biology methods to enhance the pathogenicity of microorganisms. Only this can explain why these laboratories were in such a rush to destroy the traces of their operations," the general said.
