Many of the U.S.-funded administrations’ biolabs conducted or continue to conduct research with dangerous pathogens, including so-called gain-of-function experiments, with virtually no control or oversight. Speaker 1 cites new evidence that biolabs on Ukrainian territory were funded and rebuilt using federal budget funds from the United States. This is said to be reflected in a published press release by the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which includes a map of biolabs in Ukraine.
The documents list facilities in Kharkiv, Dnepropetrovsk, Lviv, Vinnytsia, Ternopil, Chernihiv, and “Addes.” Speaker 1 emphasizes that studies of plague agents, anthrax, tularemia, and Marburg and Ebola fevers were conducted there. Speaker 1 also states that previously identified locations of deployment and directions of research activity by the Russian Ministry of Defense and the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs are currently confirmed by materials from U.S. national intelligence.
According to Speaker 1, the legal basis for organizing these studies was a cooperation agreement on preventing the spread of pathogens, technologies, and knowledge that could be used in the development of biological weapons—dated 2005—between the U.S. military department and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. Speaker 1 adds that coordination of the work was carried out by the Office for Threat Reduction of the U.S. Department of Defense, and that the research was carried out under special secrecy, with restrictions on Ukrainian specialists’ access to information and premises.
