Russia will demand explanation of the involvement of Hunter Biden in funding biolabs in Ukraine, the Kremlin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
"...This is very sensitive information - both for us and for the whole world. Of course, we will demand explanations. And we are not alone in it: you know that China has already demanded clarifications from the US, urging them to make this situation transparent to the world..." the spokesman said.
He added that US 'warning' of Russia allegedly planning to use chemical weapons during its special operation in Ukraine is a tactic to divert attention from American biolabs in the country.
Peskov also commented on Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky's claims about the Russian army using phosphorus bombs during the operation, stressing that Russia has never violated the Chemical Weapons Convention.
Earlier this week, the Russian Defence Ministry revealed new information about US-funded biolabs in eastern Ukraine, saying that one of the companies linked to these laboratories was founded by US President Joe Biden's son Hunter and Christopher Heinz, the stepson of former US Secretary of State John Kerry. According to Russia’s Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Troops chief Igor Kirillov, they managed to trace the scheme of interaction between US government bodies and Ukraine's biolabs. The Rosemont Seneca $2.4 billion capital investment fund managed by Hunter Biden was among the companies involved in the financing of these activities.
