Puppet Masters
It is no secret nowadays that the US has set up such biological laboratories in 25 countries around the world: in the Middle East, Africa, South-East Asia. Only within the former Soviet Union there are US military biological laboratories in Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova and Uzbekistan.
The Americans try to deny the military nature of the studies conducted in such laboratories. However, the secrecy that surrounds them is only comparable to that of the most important military facilities. There is no accountability to the local and global public about the "work" being done there. Moreover, no scientific "achievements" have been publicly demonstrated by American biologists over the many years of the existence of such foreign secret laboratories, and the results of their research are not published anywhere in the public domain. Meanwhile, laboratories are actively collecting information on the gene pool of the populations of countries where such laboratories operate. All this indicates that the Pentagon is undoubtedly preparing to wage a biological war using biological weapons, which the US is building in such biological laboratories. It is well known that the US has already spent over $100bn in recent years developing biological warfare weapons. The US is the only country that still blocks the establishment of a verification mechanism under the 1972 Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on their Destruction.
However, like Russia's demands to the West for a clear agreement on universal security measures and on the non-proliferation of NATO to the east, warnings about US readiness to unleash a global biological war have never been heeded in Washington and Western capitals.
With this in mind, one can hardly deny that Russia, like any other country, does not wish to have such weapons near its borders, thus jeopardizing the security of all.
Therefore, in Moscow's military operation to denazify and demilitarize Ukraine in recent days, getting rid of the numerous US military biological laboratories on the territory of that country is an important point.
On February 24, the British conservative publication THE EXPOSÉ published an article entitled "Is there more to the Ukraine/Russia conflict than meets the eye?" It recognizes that Russia should have conducted the current military operation on the basis of its security interests and confirms that there has long been a very serious threat to the lives and health of the Russian Federation population from the territory of Ukraine. It refers to at least 16 US military biological laboratories located in Odessa, Vinnitsa, Uzhgorod, Lviv (three), Kharkiv, Kiev (also three), Kherson, Ternopil, Dnepropetrovsk, as well as near Luhansk and the border with Crimea. Such "cooperation" between the Pentagon and the Ukrainian Ministry of Health dates back to 2005. Opposition parties managed to push through the Verkhovna Rada in 2013 to end this "cooperation", but the US-led coup d'état in Kiev in February 2014 prevented the implementation of this decision, resulting in this "cooperation" not only continuing but also actively developing at the initiative of Washington.
Many of the Pentagon's and White House's official secrets about US clandestine biological laboratories overseas have been revealed by Francis Boyle, professor of international law at the University of Illinois at Champaign (USA) and author of the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989 (BWATA). As this American scientist points out, "We now have an Offensive Biological Weapons industry in this country that violates the Biological Weapons Convention and my Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989". According to Boyle, "American universities have a long history of willingly permitting their research agenda .... to be co-opted, corrupted, and perverted by the the Pentagon and the C.I.A. into death science". He cites as an example the group of Dr. Yoshihiro Kawaoka of the University of Wisconsin, which managed to increase the toxicity of the flu virus by a factor of 200. According to Boyle, the Pentagon and the CIA are "ready, willing and able to launch biowarfare when it suits their interests... They have a stockpile of that super-weapons-grade anthrax that they already used against us in October 2001".
The threat to people living even at a distance from such laboratories is evidenced by an investigation conducted by USA Today newspaper, which showed that from 2006 to 2013 alone, more than 1,500 accidents and safety violations occurred in 200 military biological laboratories on the territory of the US. So what about possible similar incidents in biological laboratories in Ukraine or other former Soviet republics?
In the summer of 2019, "America's main biological warfare lab has been ordered to stop all research into the deadliest viruses and pathogens over fears contaminated waste could leak out of the facility," reported Britain's The Independent. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the public health authority in the US, has revoked the military bioresearch center at Fort Detrick's license to handle Ebola, smallpox and anthrax after CDC inspectors found "problems with the procedures used to decontaminate wastewater" at Fort Detrick. In this regard, it is notable that the possibility of "deadly viruses and pathogens" leaking into Fort Detrick's wastewater was detected shortly before the COVID-19 outbreak, which the Americans were quick to blame on China. It is also noteworthy that the Pentagon has significantly stepped up the activities of its overseas biological laboratories since 2019, clearly shifting the "work" on particularly dangerous strains and biological weapons development there.
In these circumstances, the task of terminating the activities of the US secret biological laboratories as part of the demilitarization of that country is justified in the program of Moscow's military operation in Ukraine.
Against this background, it is noteworthy that the US embassy in Ukraine removed all documents about the biological laboratories in Kiev and Odessa from its official website after Moscow launched its military operation. This further confirms that in addition to the nuclear threat from Zelensky, Russia was also being prepared for bio-extinction behind the ocean. Under these circumstances, the announcement by the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) on the US government procurement website last October of an addendum on "combating highly dangerous pathogens" is understandable. This document concerned the $3.6mln finishing work to launch two biological laboratories in Ukraine - in Kiev and Odessa, where machinery, equipment and personnel were already being prepared for the United States to unleash a biological war under the cover of Ukraine.

Experiments with this virus are banned worldwide and attempts to work with this pathogen fall under UN international law "Crimes against Peace and Humanity".
Working with the smallpox virus, as well as its storage, is allowed only in two places on our planet - in the SSC VB "Vector" (Novosibirsk, Russia) and in the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Atlanta, Georgia).
However, the Americans realized that it was not worth improving viruses and bacteria in their territory. It was then decided to secretly transport samples of smallpox virus to Ukraine.
When choosing a laboratory in which to experiment with the virus, the United States followed a simple logic - the proximity of Russia and also transport accessibility. Therefore, the city of Kharkov was chosen.
In early January 2022, Russian intelligence reported that the Pentagon's military microbiologists from the Kharkov Bacteriology Laboratory had sent a message to the Chief of the Joint Staff Committee, General Mark Milley, noting that they had achieved a unique smallpox genome structure that could be disguised as SARS. CoV-2 (coronavirus).
The description attached to the report suggests that the resulting modification of the virus is able to infect the human lungs and leave scars in the lungs. The mortality rate is (80-85%). By comparison, Ebola mortality, which everyone has probably heard of, is only 35-40%.
It is important to note that since 1984, the United States has been looking for a unique combat virus with high lethal potential that can cause irreparable damage to people in enemy territory.
Inflicting pain via biology is a fools-game and in the end all fools get hung.
