Victoria Nuland: Ukraine Has "Biological Research Facilities," Worried Russia May Seize Them - The neocon's confession sheds critical light on the U.S. role in Ukraine, and raises vital questions about these labs that deserve answers
Substack ^ | 3/9/22 | Glen Greenwald (not Russian, not MAGA)

Self-anointed "fact-checkers” in the U.S. corporate press have spent two weeks mocking as disinformation and a false conspiracy theory the claim that Ukraine has biological weapons labs, either alone or with U.S. support. They never presented any evidence for their ruling — how could they possibly know? and how could they prove the negative? — but nonetheless they invoked their characteristically authoritative, above-it-all tone of self-assurance and self-arrogated right to decree the truth, definitively labelling such claims false.

Claims that Ukraine currently maintains dangerous biological weapons labs came from Russia as well as China. The Chinese Foreign Ministry this month claimed: "The US has 336 labs in 30 countries under its control, including 26 in Ukraine alone.” The Russian Foreign Ministry asserted that “Russia obtained documents proving that Ukrainian biological laboratories located near Russian borders worked on development of components of biological weapons.” Such assertions deserve the same level of skepticism as U.S. denials: namely, none of it should be believed to be true or false absent evidence. Yet U.S. fact-checkers dutifully and reflexively sided with the U.S. Government to declare such claims "disinformation” and to mock them as QAnon conspiracy theories.

" “to consolidate and secure pathogens and toxins of security concern"

Where are they finding these " pathogens and toxins" of security concern?

Are they just lying around, all over the ground, in Ukraine?

Are they just seeping out of the ground?

Do they have tons of bat caves, there?

It's telling that I am tempted to believe the Russians, who are known to lie a lot, rather than my own government, who I know lies, all of the time.

“No justification for a Russian invasion of Ukraine.”

What would we do if Russia was collaborating with Mexcio and setting up Russian funded and directed bio weapon labs throughout Mexico? While at the same time Mexico was funding and organizing the Cartels into large well equipped anti-American armie, with Russia’s support? And would we be the bad guys when we responded?

The US borders Russia so it's obvious that these satanic corrupt pedophilic deepstate laboratories right on Russia's doorstep are a NATO conspiracy aimed directly at Putin (the savior of mankind) and an invasion special operation to eliminate the evil threat is justified and urgently needed.

Who authorized this “research”?

Who has oversight on it?

Why do you think it’s bio weapons? What if just bio labs studying the effects of radiation? After all Chernobyl is in Ukraine. What if it’s doing cancer research. Bio lab doesn’t mean bio weapons.

I’m just saying we don’t know.

Lying through your teeth again troll?

After I posted you the link on C-Span of Marco Rubio asking Victoria Nuland about these labs, on C-Span?

Here’s the CSPAN source in case anyone points out it’s RT and a deepfake or some BS.

https://www.c-span.org/video/?518355-1/secretary-state-political-affairs-testifies-ukraine#

search for biological or go to 40:24 (Marco Rubio question)

.Gov tells so many lies that it is hard to keep them all straight.

Covid “safe and effective” vaxxes will go down as one of history’s Big Lies.

The “no bio labs in Ukraine” is looking like another one.

The US has biolabs all over the world.

In most cases the local citizens probably have no clue—though paid off corrupt government officials do know.

The notion that we are a “good actor” in the world is laughable on its face.

I mean CMON NOW. Maybe the resident NEO-CONS can SPLAIN why the *uck we have U.S. management and monies funneled to these bio labs there.

I don’t think anyone is saying “believe China”, but we have a high up State Department official publicly admitting to BioLabs in Ukraine which the US is supposedly worried about.

The obvious question is, was the US funding any of those labs, what research was being done at these labs, who authorized the research, etc.

It is worth investigating a bit yourself. I’m especially concerned about the bioweapon lab set up by Senators Lugar and Obama in Ukraine to study Anthrax. I am absolutely sure that Anthrax is a bioweapon and needs no Bio-research.

https://radiopatriot.net/2022/03/08/of-course-obama-ukraine-based-biolab-with-especially-dangerous-pathogens/

https://web.archive.org/web/20110522081423/http://www.bioprepwatch.com/news/213421-biolab-opens-in-ukraine

Look at Section E-7 at this link:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK196149/

Make up your own mind on what is actually going on inside those places. I guarantee you these insane bio-research-people do not have your health or my health as a priority.

Biolab opens in Ukraine
by Tina Redlup on June 18, 2010

Richard-lugar
Sen. Dick Lugar

U.S. Sen. Dick Lugar applauded the opening of the Interim Central Reference Laboratory in Odessa, Ukraine, this week, announcing that it will be instrumental in researching dangerous pathogens used by bioterrorists.

The level-3 bio-safety lab, which is the first built under the expanded authority of the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction program, will be used to study anthrax, tularemia and Q fever as well as other dangerous pathogens.

“The continuing cooperation of Nunn-Lugar partners has improved safety for all people against weapons of mass destruction and potential terrorist use, in addition to advancements in the prevention of pandemics and public health consequences,” Lugar said.

Lugar said plans for the facility began in 2005 when he and then Senator Barack Obama entered a partnership with Ukrainian officials. Lugar and Obama also helped coordinate efforts between the U.S and Ukrainian researchers that year in an effort to study and help prevent avian flu.

The Nunn-Lugar Act, which established the Cooperative Threat Reduction Program, was established in 1991. Since that time it has provided funding and assistance to help the former Soviet Union dismantle and safeguard large stockpiles of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. The program has also been responsible for destroying chemical weapons in Albania, Lugar said.

Check it out. Then let me know whether we really do not know. To me, we do know.

The big question is, why didn’t Victoria Neuland just lie about it yesterday in Congress? Why did the Big Time Deep State Actor not just Lie?? They have not told any truth so far. Care to speculate?

According to some folks around here the 2014 coup d’etat established “democracy” in the Ukraine.

You can’t make up this stuff.
