⚡️ Briefing by Chief of Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Protection Troops General Lieutenant Igor Kirillov on US military-biological activity

Read in full

◽️ On US Walter Reed Army Institute of Research branches

The Institute has four branches all over the world, every one of them has a high-containment laboratory and a network of departments, which gather samples and transport strains.

Documents acquired during the special military operation prove the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research connection to the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency and its key contractor – the Metabiota company.

◽️ On Kharkov-based Institute of Experimental and Clinical Veterinary Medicine involvement in American UP-8 and P-444 programs

This involved studying the migration routes of migratory birds and selecting and transmitting strains of avian influenza virus with high epidemic potential and capable of crossing the interspecies barrier abroad.

The consequences of such programmes for epizootic in the territory of the Russian Federation are yet to be evaluated.

In the result of infected birds migration from Ukraine to Russia, avian influenza morbidity rate has increased significantly.

◽️ On incidents at American high-containment laboratories

The unacceptably high risk of accidents in U.S. biolaboratories is one of the reasons for their withdrawal from national jurisdiction and transfer to the territory of third countries, including Ukraine.

This explains the deterioration of the epidemic situation in their locations, the emergence of diseases that are not typical of these regions and their vectors.

👉 The United States, with the support of its allies, are conducting large-scale military-biological research aimed at finding effective methods of using infectious disease agents.

We see this as another argument in favour of an international investigation of U.S. military and biological activities.
