Moscow, Russia | Xinhua | The Russian Defense Ministry disclosed on Saturday information of U.S. high-ranking participants in the military biological studies in Ukraine, many of whom are associated with U.S. intelligence services or pharmaceutical companies.
The ministry has a document with names of all the key U.S. officials supervising Ukraine’s military biological programs, Igor Kirillov, chief of the Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Forces of the Russian Armed Forces, said during a briefing.
