Top US diplomat has confirmed that Washington has been involved in an effort to make sure no \u201cmaterials\u201d<\/em> Ukraine keeps in its biolabs end up with the Russian military.<\/p>\n

\u201cUkraine has biological research facilities, which, in fact, we are now quite concerned\u2026Russian troops, Russian forces maybe seeking to gain control of,\u201d<\/em> US State Under Secretary Victoria Nuland said on Tuesday as she testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re working with Ukranians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of Russian forces should they approach,\u201d<\/em> she added.<\/p>\n

The Russian military previously claimed that the Ukrainian authorities have been hastily destroying dangerous materials, including highly pathogenic bacterial and viral agents, they allegedly kept in laboratories linked to the Pentagon.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov claimed that the documents seen by the Russian military suggest that some of these laboratories worked with anthrax and the plague among other infections. Kirillov also alleged that \u201cthe only reason\u201d<\/em> why Kiev had reportedly moved to destroy the materials was out of concern that Russian experts \u201cwill highly likely prove Ukraine and the US have been in violation of the Biological Weapons Convention\u201d<\/em> once they study\u00a0 the samples.<\/p>\n

While Moscow has expressed concerns over the alleged development of bioweapons in Ukraine, Nuland has appeared to preemptively blame Russia for any potential release of hazardous materials amid the ongoing military conflict.<\/p>\n

Nuland agreed with Senator Marco Rubio that if a chemical or biological \u201cincident\u201d<\/em> or \u201cattack\u201d<\/em> takes place in Ukraine, then Russia would be\u00a0the culprit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no doubt in my mind, Senator, and it is classic Russian technique to blame on the other guy what they\u2019re planning to do themselves,\u201d<\/em> she said.<\/p>\n

Kiev has denied it was designing bioweapons, while the Pentagon insisted that speculations about its possible involvement in such programs in the former Soviet states was part of Russian \u201cdisinformation.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
