Such information was disseminated in social networks, in particular, on telegram channels broadcasting pro-Kremlin rhetoric. The reports say that Ukraine, together with the United States, allegedly conducts dangerous experiments in Ukrainian biological laboratories. Like, such information was confirmed by the US Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland. At the same time, the authors also refer to the material of the American edition of OAN where this is mentioned. However, this is not true.

Analysts at the VoxCheck project got down to this case and investigated that Victoria Nuland did not make such a statement. There are no laboratories in Ukraine that would develop biological weapons or conduct dangerous experiments. However, such a story from the American channel “One America News” really exists. Analysts explain that this is a biased publication that spreads propaganda, conspiracy theories and fake news. Therefore, the plot cannot testify to the official position of the country, since the plot is fiction.

Russia uses the topic of “biological laboratories” as part of the narrative about the “Western control of Ukraine”, as well as the existence of “Russophobia”. It seems that Ukraine is a “puppet of the West”, which follows its instructions and works with dangerous substances in order to do harm to Russia.
