🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the 11th Moscow Conference on International Security (Moscow, August 15, 2023)
🔹 The very possibility of the dominance of one country or even a group of states is disappearing into oblivion. Today, it is of the essence to build a truly democratic multipolar world order based on generally recognised international legal norms, primarily the principles of the UN Charter.
🔹 In violation of the UN Charter, the Americans and their NATO satellites are trying to tell other countries which allies to choose or avoid. Westerners demonstrate blatant intolerance towards dissent, seeking to usurp the prerogative to shape the global agenda in all its aspects.
🔹 Washington and its allies are not embarrassed by the fact that through their actions they are threatening global stability, creating new risks, and undermining supply chains, as well as food and energy security.
🔹 In order to save their geopolitical project to “contain Russia” and to split the Russian world, the United States, NATO and the EU are flooding Ukraine with increasing amounts of modern weapons, thus stoking the conflict and provoking the unchecked spread of weapons around the world.
🔹 The geopolitical situation makes it difficult for us to pool efforts to neutralise the threats that are common to humanity, including fighting international terrorism, especially jihadist organisations.
🔹Everyone should learn their lessons from the tragic consequences of the wars unleashed by the United States and its allies. We believe it is important that the UN, which has of late been fairly quiet in this regard, should act proactively and step up its efforts in fighting terrorism without relying on double standards.
🔹 Russia will continue to consolidate the efforts of the international community to counter global and regional challenges and threats, to promote a positive agenda, to contribute to strengthening international security and stability

⚡️ Briefing by Chief of Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Protection Troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov on US military-biological activity (August 16, 2023)
◽️ Despite the fact that the stated goals of US programmes are to monitor disease incidence and provide assistance to developing countries, in fact, we see the Pentagon conducting uncontrolled dual-use research in circumvention of international obligations under the BTWC.
☝️ There is a clear trend: pathogens that fall within the Pentagon's area of interest, such as COVID-19, avian influenza, African swine fever, subsequently become pandemic, and American pharmaceutical companies become the beneficiaries.
***
◽️ The next step, taken by the United States to realise its strategic plans in establishing global biological control, was the creation of the Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response Policy.
It is envisaged that the new structure will be responsible for setting the course and coordinating actions to combat known and unknown biological challenges, including pathogens that could trigger another global emergency.
👉 Thus, as in 2019, the US has begun preparing for a new pandemic by searching for virus mutations.
The US Army Research Institute for Infectious Diseases, currently headed by Colonel Constance Jenkins, will play a leading role in the military department's biomedical warfare programme.
⚠️ Documents, obtained during the special military operation, show that the institution is directly involved in the collection of dangerous pathogens in various regions of the world, testing of unregistered drugs, as well as the implementation of dual-use programmes, ordered by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency of the US Department of Defense.
