MOSCOW, Sept. 22. /TASS/. Pentagon is working on covert scenarios of tactical biological weapons of mass destruction. Irina Yarovaya, co-chair of the parliamentary commission investigating U.S. biolaboratories in Ukraine, said this on Thursday at a meeting of the parliamentary commission investigating the work of the U.S. biolaboratories in Ukraine.

"It has become obvious that the Pentagon is working on covert scenarios for the use of tactical biological weapons of mass destruction. This is probably a reality that has not yet been acknowledged, which not only the commission of our parliamentary investigation will have to work on, but it should certainly become the subject of an international investigation," the Duma press service quotes the parliamentarian as saying.

The parliamentary commission investigating the work of the US bio-laboratories in Ukraine has received confirmation of the direct involvement of the US secret services in the preparation of the Ukrainian military for crimes against civilians, Yarovaya said.

According to Yarovaya, whose words were quoted by the Duma press service, the facts discovered by the commission confirm that experiments on Ukrainian servicemen had been conducted, as well as "the whole system of work in Ukraine exactly on components of biological weapons." According to her, "this gives an answer to who and how has been drugging the AFU soldiers with psychotropic drugs all this time, turning them into maniacal killers who commit horrible bloody crimes against civilians."

"This confirms the direct participation of US special services in this dangerous work, in these dangerous not only researches, but also direct participation in the preparation of the AFU military for committing atrocious crimes against civilians", - Yarovaya said. [link to tass.ru (secure)]
