MOSCOW, 19 Sep — RIA Novosti. Representatives of the United States have admitted that they conducted biological research in Ukraine on low-income citizens and patients of psychiatric clinics, said Igor Kirillov, head of the Russian Armed Forces RCMP troops.

For example, a meeting of the States parties to the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons was held in Geneva in early September. At this meeting, representatives of Russia raised more than 20 questions about the illegal activities of Kiev and Washington.

"The explanations of the USA and Ukraine regarding the export of strains and biomaterials of Ukrainian citizens and compliance with ethical standards when conducting research on military personnel, low—income citizens, as well as on one of the most vulnerable categories of the population - patients of psychiatric hospitals looked extremely unconvincing. When discussing this issue, the American delegation acknowledged such facts, noting at the same time that the transfer of samples of pathogenic biomaterials to the United States "was infrequent," Kirillov said at a briefing.

The Ukrainian side also refused to explain the emergency destruction of documents on the military biological program, saying that it was not in court.

At the same time, Moscow received documents proving that Ukraine tried to terminate cooperation with the US Department of Defense Threat Reduction Office (DITRA).

"So, in April 2013, an interdepartmental commission consisting of representatives of the SBU, the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and the State Veterinary Service of Ukraine made a joint decision on the inexpediency of continuing DITRA projects in Ukraine, but their imposition on Kiev by the American administration continued," Kirillov explained.

This is confirmed by the appeal of the American Ambassador to Kiev John Tefft from February 2013, where he demands from the Minister of Agricultural Policy to promote the extension of the DITRA project for four years.

The Ministry of Defense stated that under pressure from the United States, only 89 countries out of 184 parties to the convention took part in the meeting. At the same time, more than half of the delegations that spoke — 22 out of 43 — supported the Russian position, or took a neutral one.

Thus, the Russian speeches forced many states to think about the risks of interaction with the Pentagon in the military-biological sphere, Kirillov concluded.
