Russia has documented evidence that the US State Department has been participating in the implementation of the Biosecurity Enhancement Program since 2016, Kirillov told the briefing.
According to the general, the data shows that Washington has been actively taking part in bioresearch in other countries, striving to use third-party performers to conceal the customers and goals of the ongoing research.
The US is especially interested in conducting biological research in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Africa, while Ukraine has been designated as a separate region for bioprograms, Kirillov stressed.
"Thus, Washington is making administrative, financial and diplomatic efforts to establish US global biological control," the official emphasized.
"The scale of military-biological activities and the extensive cooperation between performers is confirmed not only by the documents received but also by statements of the US politicians," he added.
