⚡Russian MoD on the US Democratic Party's role in military biological research:

▪Investment funds of the Clintons, Rockefellers, Soros, and Biden, as well as other NGOs which are under the control of the US Democratic Party are donating money to finance military biological research;

▪So-called "Big Pharma" companies are involved in this scheme, including Pfizer, Moderna, Merck, as well as Gilead, a US military-affiliated company;

▪US experts are working on testing new medicines, bypassing international safety standards;

▪Thus, Western companies are significantly reducing the costs of implementing research programmes and gaining significant competitive advantages;

▪The involvement of non-governmental and biotech organisations allows the leaders of the Democratic Party to receive additional financial revenue for election campaigns and to conceal cash flows

⚡US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin: US emphasizes to Ukrainians importance of weapons not falling in wrong hands

⚡Russia’s Ministry of Defence has analysed the activities of the biological and veterinary laboratories in Mariupol:

▪Mariupol was used as a regional centre for the collection and certification of the cholera pathogen, when the city was under Ukrainian control;

▪According to documents, strains were being sent to the Public Health Centre in Kiev, then the biomaterials were transmitted to the United States. This activity had been carried out since 2014;

▪Almost the whole collection of pathogens was destroyed on 25 February 2022, but part of it (124 strains) was later taken to a safe storage by Russian specialists;

▪Typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, and gas gangrene pathogens are not typical of veterinary medicine, but they are in the collection. This may indicate the participation of the laboratory in a military biological programme;

▪The Russian MoD is examining material received from the Mariupol biolaboratories and will inform the public about the results soon
