Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said during a regular briefing that the Chinese government is urging the United States to publish information regarding the military biological laboratories located in Ukraine and the viruses that were studied there. On Tuesday, March 8, reports TASS with reference to the agency.
Lijian stressed that 26 American laboratories and other similar facilities functioned on the territory of Ukraine. “The United States, as the party that has the most information regarding the laboratories, should disclose relevant data as soon as possible, including regarding the viruses that were there and the nature of the research on them,” the diplomat said, urging the relevant parties to ensure the safety of the data of the research centers.
The official representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry also added that the US military biological programs in Ukraine can only be the “tip of the iceberg”. “Under the guise of working together to reduce biological security risks and protect global health, the United States controls 336 laboratories in 30 countries around the world. The American side also carried out a lot of military biological research at the Fort Detrick laboratory. What is the true intention of the US? What exactly were they doing?” Lijiang argued.
