The US government is accused by the Russian Ministry of Defense of alleged financing of biological weapons in Ukraine. In addition, they reported that they have evidence of this in certain Ukrainian laboratories.

In turn, the United States indicates that these accusations are completely false. According to his criteria, it is really the Russian country that is planning the use of chemical weapons in Ukraine, a country that is being attacked. This fact would be supported by a response to a supposed attack.

White House spokesperson Jen Spaki mentioned that everyone should be vigilant after these accusations made by Russia, as they may use chemical or biological weapons in Russia, with the support of China, who supports such propaganda.

The spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zajarova, warned that there is some fear in Moscow regarding the development by the United States of biological materials in Ukraine.

The United Nations Organization (UN) also ruled in this case and indicated that so far, there is no real evidence to confirm the use of biological weapons, or programs that support it, as the Russian government says.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has been in constant collaboration with Ukraine. It also notes that there is no record of activity that is inconsistent with international treaty-based obligations, including chemical or biological weapons.

Despite this, Russia again made accusations against the American country and asserted that it discovered certain tests in Ukrainian scientific centers.

From the Russian Ministry of Defense, it was reported that the purpose of the biological research, supported by the Pentagon of Ukraine, was the creation of a mechanism for the secret spread of deadly pathogens.

Jen Psaki, a spokeswoman for the White House, stressed that the United States does not possess or develop chemical weapons anywhere, since Russia has a long history of using these weapons prohibited in international treaties.

He concluded by commenting that this is a technique of the Russian government to justify its premeditated, unjustified and unprovoked attack on Ukraine.
