China urges Pentagon to disclose alleged BIOLABS in Ukraine AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

FM spox Zhao Lijian claimed Tuesday that Beijing believes the laboratories in Ukraine are just the "tip of an iceberg” and that the US Dept of Defense “controls 336 biological laboratories in 30 countries around the world.”

Zhao also said that according to data “released by the United States itself,” there are 26 US laboratories in Ukraine. He urged “all parties concerned” to ensure the safety of the labs in light of Russia’s military offensive.
