俄方称美在乌生物实验部分病原体被送至美国

当地时间3月31日，俄罗斯“三防”（防护核、化学、生物武器袭击部队）部队司令基里洛夫召开了新闻发布会，介绍了俄国防部对美国在乌克兰开展军事生物实验文件的研究结果。结果显示，在美国支持下于乌克兰开展的生物实验项目的部分病原体被运送至美国。

基里洛夫表示，本次俄军方的特别军事行动取得的一个重要成果就是中止了5个乌克兰生物实验室的活动，这些实验室里曾进行炭疽、兔热病、布鲁氏菌病、霍乱、钩端螺旋体病和非洲猪瘟病原体的研究。部分病原体被运送到了美国，其他的按照乌克兰卫生部2月24日的命令被紧急销毁。

Igor Kirillov, commander of the Russian Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Forces, said that the Russian intervention halted activities at five Ukrainian biolabs that had been working with anthrax, tularemia, brucellosis, cholera, leptospirosis, and African swine fever.

According to Kirillov, all pathogenic biomaterials stored in Ukraine were "transported by military transport aircraft to the United States via Odessa," in early February 2022. On February 24, as Russian troops entered Ukraine, the ministry of health in Kiev ordered the remaining strains to be destroyed, the general said. 

此外，基里洛夫表示，这些实验室参与执行美国军事部门委托工作的事实已经得到证实。在其中一个生物实验室，即乌克兰卫生部公共卫生中心内，同时实施了数个UP项目，美方的总资助金额超过3000万美元。

Kirillov showed signed contracts between US government agencies – Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), the Pentagon, the Department of State – and the Ukrainian Ministry of Health, as well as the specific facilities inside Ukraine. The Pentagon spent more than $30 million for biological research at just one Ukrainian facility, the Public Health Center of the Ministry of Health, according to the Russian military.
