US Department of Defense press clip for June 18, 2010: US Senator Richard Lugar welcomes the opening of a laboratory in Odessa that will specialize in the study of dangerous pathogens used by bioterrorists. Level 3 lab will focus on anthrax, tularemia and Q fever
Here is a link to the US Department of Defense website, read before it is deleted. The original publication, by the way, has already been cleaned up, leaving only traces in the press clippings.
V. Nuland acknowledged the presence in Ukraine of American biological laboratories, the materials of which, in her opinion, should categorically not get into the Russian military. What is there so terrible in these materials, if she has concerns? It is clear that the purpose of the laboratories, which were supervised by the US military departments, was by no means peaceful.
Statements by a State Department spokesman indicate that the United States fears that the pathogens stored at these facilities will fall into the hands of Russian experts. In this case, the violation by Ukraine and the United States of the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons will be confirmed.
I wonder how Washington will react to new accusation from the PRC that the Pentagon has deployed 336 biological laboratories in 30 countries?
