Irina Yarovaya reported on the progress of the parliamentary investigation into the activities of the US biological laboratories in Ukraine
Irina Yarovaya emphasized that the President's decision to conduct a special military operation made it possible “to suspend the Pentagon's dangerous military-biological activities on the territory of Ukraine.”
She recalled that for the effective work of the Commission, there were created four working groups: on medicine, law, security, information and a scientific advisory council, that would help to discuss important issues in various formats with experts, interested ministries and departments and analyze documents and materials.
“I want to present to you the materials that have already been studied by the Commission. These are documents that we had analyzed in the most detailed way and translated from English and Ukrainian full texts of all agreements that were found during Russia’s special operation carried in Ukraine,” the Co-Chair of the Commission said.
“Our task was not only to use the documents of the Ministry of Defense, but to independently work on obtaining additional evidence,” stressed the Deputy Chairwoman of the State Duma and added that the Commission identified all witnesses who gave exclusive evidence of the activities of military laboratories in Ukraine. According to Irina Yarovaya, such work had revealed facts of significant infringements of safety requirements in those laboratories in Ukraine.
“Today we can say that these activities were performed by highly qualified Pentagon specialists. There were involved several special services, which were affiliated with the Pentagon and served as trainers in Ukraine,” said Irina Yarovaya.
The Commission found confirmation by digital codes of evidence that those specialists had professional experience in the development of biological weapons, as noted the Co-Chair of the Commission.
Irina Yarovaya also informed about a fact of bioterrorism which took place on the territory of the Slavyanoserbsky region of the LPR. Relevant criminal proceedings were initiated to investigate that case.
“I mean the distribution of counterfeit banknotes that were infected with a very dangerous, highly pathogenic strain of Asian tuberculosis,” Irina Yarovaya specified.
In addition to the case with banknotes, the Co-Chair of the Commission informed about the activities of the veterinary laboratory in Mariupol, which at first was out of sight of the military: there had been revealed pathogens of diseases not typical for veterinary medicine, like typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, perfringens. 124 seized strains are being studied by specialists, as added Irina Yarovaya.
“For the first time, we had revealed in documents that were seized by the Ministry of Defense facts that dangerous experiments were conducted on Ukrainian servicemen. These documents contain information that in case of adverse effect Ukraine had to inform the American side within 72 hours. In case of a death of a serviceman — within a day,” said Irina Yarovaya.
No humanitarian projects intend such consequences, as said the Co-Chair of the Commission.
