On Tuesday, Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland told the Senate that the US is working with Ukraine to protect biological research labs as Russia continues its attacks on the Eastern European nation.

"Ukraine has biological research facilities, which in fact we are now quite concerned Russian troops, Russian forces may be seeking to gain control of, so we are working with the Ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of Russian forces should they approach," Nuland told the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee in a hearing.

The response came in regards to a question from Senator Marco Rubio, who asked: "Does Ukraine have chemical or biological weapons?" Following Nuland's response, Rubio continued on to ask whether she would have any doubt that the Russians would be behind any potential biological or chemical attacks. "I’m sure you're aware that the Russian propaganda, two groups already putting out there all kinds of information about how they've uncovered a plot by the Ukrainians to release biological weapons in the country and with NATO's coordination. If there's a biological or chemical weapon incident or or attack inside of Ukraine, is there any doubt in your mind that 100 percent it would be the Russians that would be behind it?" Rubio asked.

"There is no doubt in my mind, Senator, and it is classic Russian technique to blame on the other guy what they're planning to do themselves," Nuland responded.

While it’s interesting that China has chimed it, they need to take their own advise.

For Pete’s sake, Russia took out those labs using thermobaric strikes at the start of the invasion. Putin knew that they would use bio-weapons against Russia.

So they’re admitting that Russia is going after the bio labs. Isn’t that interesting.

We have bio labs in the Ukraine because...?

So psychopaths like Faux-xi can research and create diseases to exterminate the species.

I’m seeing that we have no labs in Ukraine. Doesn’t mean we aren’t funding one.

That's because the info was scrubbed from the website.

Would it surprise anyone if they made sure Russia acquired the labs, then leaked a pathogen worse than COVID and blamed Russia for its Release?

"There is no doubt in my mind, Senator, and it is classic Russian Democrat technique to blame on the other guy what they're planning to do themselves," Nuland responded.

China urges Pentagon to disclose alleged “biolabs” in Ukraine “as soon as possible”

FM spox Zhao Lijian claimed Tuesday that Beijing believes the laboratories in Ukraine are just the “tip of an iceberg” and that the US Dept of Defense “controls 336 biological laboratories in 30 countries around the world.”

Zhao also said that according to data “released by the United States itself,” there are 26 US laboratories in Ukraine. He urged “all parties concerned” to ensure the safety of the labs in light of Russia’s military offensive.

On Monday, Moscow claimed Ukrainian authorities had been destroying pathogens studied at 30 US-financed biolabs in the country. Kiev has denied developing bioweapons.

I think you’re right. So the American Government is using American’s money to perform things the American people have said they can’t do.

I think we have a problem here.

Maybe the Government doesn’t want you to see any evidence of that funding.
