Russia’s radioactive, chemical, and biological protection forces chief, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, claimed that in 2020, Ukraine biolabs gave fake money infected with tuberculosis to village children in the Lugansk People’s Republic.
Moscow claims Ukraine tried to infect the people of the Russia-aligned Lugansk People’s Republic with tuberculosis (TB) and permitted the US government to conduct human experiments in psychiatric institutions in Kharkov.
Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, Chief of Russia’s Radioactive, Chemical, and Biological Protection Forces, claimed during a briefing on the findings of the Russian Defense Ministry’s investigation into the purportedly US-funded bioweapon labs in Ukraine that Russian forces had obtained evidence suggesting Kiev attempted to infect residents of the Slavyanoserbsk district of the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) with a highly pathogenic strain of tuberculosis in 2020.
“Leaflets made in the form of counterfeit banknotes were infected with the causative agent of tuberculosis and distributed among minors in the village of Stepovoe,” Kirillov said, adding that the criminals took into account children’s behavior, which includes “putting things in their mouth” and handling food without washing their hands.
The results of the bacteriological research, according to Kirillov, indicated that the isolated bacteria detected on the leaflets were resistant to first and second line anti-TB treatments, making the disease they caused significantly more difficult and expensive to treat.
He went on to quote the Lugansk Republican Sanitary and Epidemiological Station’s conclusion, which stated that “the infection of the banknotes was most likely artificial, since the material contains extremely dangerous strains of the pathogen in a concentration that can ensure infection and the development of the tuberculosis process.”
The LPR TB dispensary also saw traces of “deliberate, man-made contamination of leaflets with biomaterials of high pathogenicity,” according to Kirillov.
Officials from Russia also claimed that the Pentagon was conducting “inhumane” experiments on patients at at least two psychiatric institutes in Kharkov. Kirillov explained, “The main category of experimental subjects was a group of male, highly physically exhausted patients aged between 40 to 60 years.”
The trials were carried out by foreign specialists who arrived in Ukraine via third-party countries in order to keep the US’ involvement hidden. According to Kirillov, the specialists were quickly removed from the nation early this year, right before the Russian military intervention began.
“In January 2022, the foreign citizens who conducted the experiments were urgently evacuated, and the equipment and drugs they used were taken to the western regions of Ukraine,” he said.
Last week, Alexander Bastrykin, the head of Russia’s Investigative Committee, said that the service had “clearly identified” many Americans participating in military biological research in Ukraine, including Pentagon employees and organizations with ties to the US military. Between 2005 and early 2022, Washington poured more than $224 million into biological research in Russia, according to Russian estimates, according to Bastrykin.
Officials from the United States confirmed the existence of “biological research facilities” in Ukraine, but stated that the US merely offered “assistance” for initiatives that did not entail the creation of bioweapons.
Following Ukraine’s refusal to implement the conditions of the Minsk agreements, which were first signed in 2014, and Moscow’s subsequent recognition of the Donbass republics of Donetsk and Lugansk, Russia launched an attack on the neighboring country in late February. The agreements negotiated by Germany and France were intended to grant special status to the breakaway areas within Ukraine.
Since then, the Kremlin has demanded that Ukraine declare itself a neutral country that will never join the NATO military alliance led by the United States. Kiev believes the Russian offensive was unjustified and refutes suggestions that it planned to seize the two republics forcefully.
See reply #61, sums it up perfectly.
Yeah. Once one becomes so jaded they don’t believe anything then what is left?
Everything you said was true 40 years ago, 80 years ago, 160 years ago. What was our South REALLY like in 1855? How much rabble rousing by both sides caused brother against brother five years or so later?
When has the media NOT lied to us? When have they NOT advocated a political side?
NOTHING is certain. People, and institutions especially, lie all the time. Sometimes the lies aren’t really lies because the truth gets so hidden no one knows what is true or not.
I spent 22 years of my life defending this country. Call me delusional, or crazy, or a liar, but I still will love and defend her, despite, and maybe even more so, due to the bad guys being in charge.
I cannot think some Ukranian who defends his country is just a Nazi or working for Soros. That’s just crazy talk. And by crazy, I mean weirdly wrong, not off the wall insane. The fact they were invaded is the only thing I know to be true. That shouldn’t have happened.
No one on this forum, no group of Free Republic partisans either, are right and the wrong. That applies to this Russian war. Both sides have important points and can make the case.
I’m not ever going to say one side is stupid, or aren’t real conservatives... Come on man, when either side says that, they are the ones who are wrong.
You say the lack of skepticism about the main stream media and tech oligarchs on this forum is very troubling... Dude, skepticism is the HEART of Free Republic. There’s just so MUCH to be skeptical about, on just about every topic, if one promotes one over the other and isn’t on a particular side they get accused of not being “one”.
That’s crazy, too.
I try to go with my gut instinct when the truth is propagandized by every side. One thing you’ll note about me is I do not call people names and slander them.
We’re all stupid in one way or another.

Pretty sure "fake money" constitutes "a surface". That fake money has a lot in common with this fake story. This crackpot site is almost as good as your fave The Daily Expose.
Funny thing is these warmongers will believe anything CNN Puts out regarding Ukraine even going as far as posting as some sort of proof. But they don’t seem to be talking about how there’s only one side of the story being presented and it’s a very slanted story
The reason they would put it on money is to see the spread of it how it spreads when money changes hands. You know I remember World of Warcraft had an accidental break out of a virus interesting story, long time ago but anyway the CDC was interested in how people reacted to that kind of thing
#62. Thank you.
Roll over and say Hi to Nancy.
That bed’s getting awfully crowded.
Howdy, CINO!
Your script reads like one I spied on DU.
Do you believe in & support the $$ for Ukraine?
It’s not important to us and you’re being a sucker for a media propaganda I’ve never seen the likes of before from a media you loathed until the past two seconds of history
Plus you’re not well informed on Donbas past eight years or you’d know Russian ethnics have a legit beef and the referendum to prove it 89%
Critical thinking
The pro war crowd here brooks zero alternative narrative
And suddenly believes the media over a conflict they are exploiting we should mostly ignore
40 billion
Listen you leftist newbie punk, you wouldn’t know a conservative if one bit you on the a$$, and I hope one does.
Stuoid jackasses who have become leftists and accuse anyone who stands against our enemies of being a liberal.
Spend a little time on FR before you start calling others names, little newbie.
2012? Give me a break.
Roll over and say Hi to Nancy,
Okay, let's look at this "logi_cal"ly:
Major Premise: Those who align with the left & globalists are domestic enemies.
Minor Premise: The left & globalists recommend that we breathe. logi_cal869 breathes.
Conclusion: logi_cal869 is a domestic terrorist.
I am astounded by your erudition. /s
