How do our overseas opponents react to Russia’s statements? Some have kept silent, sometimes they give instructions not to react at all. Some of their work has been curtailed, and we consider this to be our achievement,” Kirillov said in an interview with Russian TV on the occasion of the RCBD Troops’ professional holiday.

Putin Urges Russian Security Council to Focus on Ensuring CIS Collective Biosecurity
11:11 GMT 22.12.2023 (Updated: 12:02 GMT 22.12.2023) In the course of Moscow's military operation in Ukraine, Russia’s Radiological, Chemical, and Biological Defense Troops have repeatedly shed light on the extent of US military-biological activities at dozens of facilities on the territory of the country. Washington has denied the allegations.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed discussing ensuring collective
biological security across the territory of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
The Russian president was speaking at a briefing with permanent members of the Russian Security Council.
“Currently the situation is not the same [as during the COVID-19 pandemic], thank God. But, nevertheless, it is anything but simple from the point of view of the epidemiological situation. Biological security concerns all of us, our closest neighbors. On December 25-26, we will have meetings with our colleagues, with the leaders of the CIS countries. This is one of the issues that, of course, is of interest to everyone in general,” Putin said.
The Russian leader asked the head of Russia's consumer rights watchdog Rospotrebnadzor, Anna Popova, to report on the biological and epidemiological situation in the CIS.
