Moscow, April 13: US-funded biological laboratories in Ukraine were engaged in developing components of biological weapons, said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev. "It is impossible not to mention the activities conducted by the United States and its allies near the Russian borders," Medvedev said, adding that such activities were not aimed at searching for effective means of protection against dangerous diseases or cooperating with the international community. "Work there was carried out behind closed doors. In fact, components of biological weapons were developed and pathogenic microorganisms were studied that have posed a threat to all mankind," Medvedev added.
