and following the results of the report of the parliamentary commission to investigate the circumstances related to the creation of biological laboratories by american specialists on the territory of ukraine, i propose to adopt a decision to approve the report. thank you for your attention. thank you vyacheslav ivanovich please sit down, colleagues, will there be any questions for the speakers sergey alekseevich ryabkov, igor anatolyevich kirillov who want to ask questions or speak? please sign up. e, name whom you ask questions irina valerievna rukavishnikova please. thank you very much valentina ivanovna question to sergei alekseevich ryabkov, dear sergei alekseevich e, we know that russia has sought, through the security council, by launching an international investigation into the military biological activities of the united states and ukraine on ukrainian territory. do you think there is a chance that the security council’s decisions on this issue were adopted last november and can be reviewed and an international
10:31 am
investigation will still be launched. thank you please, with a place is possible. thank you dear irina valerievna dear valentina ivanovna dear senators thank you for the invitation to take part in today's meeting indeed the russian smarta federation last year sought and continues to seek a solution to the situation with a violation of the convention dangerous and uncontrolled war biological activities of the united states and ukraine on ukrainian territory let me remind you that we initiated open meetings of the un security council in accordance with the sixth article and the convention, these meetings were held on 27 october and november 2 last year and their goal was just to launch an investigation into how
10:32 am
washington kiev complies with its obligations under the convention in relation to the activities of the biolaboratory. on ukrainian territory, these two countries have asserted and continue to assert until now, and they do it in spite of. in particular. not only the facts that are collected and summarized analyzed. parliamentary commission for which we are very grateful. to the senators who took an active part, and in this work, but and contrary to the final document the consultative meeting of the states parties to the bwc, which took place in september last year in jena a of the country of the west , headed by washington. e stand on the position that all questions are allegedly closed to them in essence. no, this is propaganda. this is a false uh, presentation
10:33 am
of material. e. there is not even an attempt, er, to understand the essence of the problem and the claims that the russian side put forward, accordingly, we developed and submitted to the un security council a draft resolution of this body, which involved the creation of an international commission for investigation. this was also done with us in full compliance with the sixth article of the bwc. at the meeting on november 2 last year, the usa great britain france voted against this draft resolution, respectively, it did not pass, but i draw your attention to the fact that the voting results are very indicative, since a number of other states did not let the us choose to abstain this is a reflection of common sense in many
10:34 am
capitals that such an investigation is required we are continuing efforts to do so in multilateral forums. let's do it do primarily within the framework. hbt. we will seek to resolve the current situation of removing the claims we have, if further shifts are made in the un security council towards a better understanding of our approach, we will also work on this. i do not rule out a possible return to this issue, including in this body, that is, the topic is not closed and definitely. we will deal with this in cooperation with all relevant departments. thank you thank you sergey alekseevich gorodetsky please thank you valentina ivanovna, i have a question for anatolyevich, dear anatolyevich have there been any signs that the activities
10:35 am
of the united states of america outside the national territory, including on the territory of ukraine, are aimed at creating a new generation of biological weapons? hmm good afternoon, dear lieutenant ivanovna , dear senators. i would like to draw your attention to a few points. first, on february 24 , 2022, the minister of health of ukraine issues an order in accordance with which he will try to destroy all biological agents, and all development materials in a row. uh, biological research organizations on an emergency basis and with a report immediately, that is, the ministry of health of what crank the hospital is dealing with this issue. why? because in the case of detection in these laboratories of a number of improvements
10:36 am
in biological materials. on the territory of our region , it would be so on the territory of poland, latvia, estonia and belarus. eh, it could be argued that the relationship between these pants. not what they found mean in these labs. this is the first second means, the pentagon on june 9, 2022 confirmed that joint work was organized in 46 ukrainian laboratories with the us department of defense well, of course, the defense of the russian federation presented the original agreement document. this is such a summary registration card on a number of positions on a number of studies with a dual-use guide held uh, wild this is the pentagon
10:37 am
threat reduction office attention that dual uh research such a plan has long been believed by the united states most clearly, they began to work in ukraine since 2014. thank you. in our meeting there are teachers of the academy of the fsb of russia. vladimir dzhabarov please, i have a question for deputy minister sergei alekseevich ryabkov sergei alekseevich along the perimeter of the russian borders, a whole network of white laboratories is growing along the perimeter of the russian borders, built or modernized with the assistance of the us military vegas what measures
10:38 am
should be taken in the context of the convention on the prohibition of biological and so strong weapons and in other international formats to stop you from the national security of the russian federation resulting from us military biological activity outside its territory, including in the post-soviet space. and to what extent this convention does not have a verification mechanism capable of responding to such challenges. thank you yes, thank you, dear mikhalych a-a. i'll start by saying that dangerous us bio-military activities in ukraine are a blatant example of the united states neglecting its own
10:39 am
international obligations and a reminder to us as a department and our other specialized structures by the federal executive authority, and in the need to take practical measures to strengthen the regime, the cbt should note that the vast majority of the participants in the convention, including 120 countries of incoming non-alignment movements, as well as a number of other states, except for the western ones. they support, uh, our position that the efficiency would somehow increase significantly if it were possible to develop universal legal, a binding non-discriminatory protocol to this convention relating to all articles of the protocol, including an effective verification mechanism. let me remind you that work on it, uh,
10:40 am
was at a very advanced stage, but at the beginning of the 2000s. uh, it was stopped in fact blocked by the same us that is now quite obviously heading towards building up its military biological activities and dual programs of the so-called dual use programs. e practically in all regions of the world, not excluding. and probably before of everything, focusing on the post-soviet space. and we will persistently work in favor of continuing the harmonization of this protocol. for these purposes, there will be an operation on the working group created on the russian initiative to strengthen the convention. this is one of the important positives. the results of the ninth
10:41 am
review conference of the bwc last year, and here again it should be noted that the preparations for the event for the review conference were carried out in close cooperation with the parliamentary commission, and we are grateful for the understanding and assistance, including in developing our position papers in this way. this working group has been created and this is the channel where this work will continue together with like-minded people. we will continue to promote our other initiatives aimed at strengthening institutionalization. this is the formation of mobile biomedical detachments within the framework of the convention for the development of international cooperation in the biosphere for peaceful purposes. providing assistance and protection in cases of the use of biological weapons and conducting the investigation of alleged violations of the provisions of the cbt is on the agenda as well as the establishment of a scientific advisory committee
10:42 am
to analyze relevant relevant scientific and technological developments relevant to the convention and provide recommendations to the state parties. we raise the issue of including information on military biological activities abroad in the reporting form of confidence-building measures within the framework of the cwc in order to remove remaining questions regarding such activity, as well as on the creation of a mechanism for carrying out investigations in connection with the alleged violation of the liability obligation of the sixth article. many say that the convention is weak, that this document is even ambiguous in some of its aspects, but you know, the problems that have come to light with the fulfillment of obligations under the gbt in the framework of military biological activities on ukrainian territory. this is by and large. not so much a consequence of the weakness of the convention itself. how much is a reflection of the lack of political will of the collective west at
10:43 am
the head of the united states to develop the necessary tools and verification mechanisms, as well as implementation of other initiatives to strengthen the compensation regime. we do not have a convention in this area. therefore, we need to continue to work out, conduct explanatory work, and come up with initiatives to mobilize like-minded allies. we are doing this on a daily basis, in the literal sense of the word, so that the convention is still strengthened thank you thank you sergey alekseevich colleagues the time limit for considering this issue has already expired. e. there is a proposal to give lyudmila borisovna narusa the opportunity to complete e, questions and move on voting. no objections lyudmila borisovna please give you a word. i have a question from konstantin to tatyana alekseevna, if i may, konstantinovich, were the samples of these
10:44 am
biological weapons and these viruses at the disposal of the commission or the specialists involved in virologists, and were there any opportunities to transfer them to our specialists for the development of anti-tvods, after all, the main task is to protect the population, so work has been done in this direction. please briefly if we did not provide for investigative action, therefore with test tubes. we didn't work. we worked only with documents. the entire material base of evidence was accumulated along the lines of the ministry of defense. and i think that igor anatolyevich will now answer this topic. come on, we will ask kirill igor anatolyevich if you would like to comment. we actually worked in four laboratories, which means that those laboratories that we violated were discovered about 240 different ones. and damn uncreative. uh, he says substances of various kinds, we study them and
10:45 am
we continue to explore most of them relate to siberian peptic ulcer disease, which means cholera. we have vaccines against such diseases and medicines. there are we cooperate. uh, joint with the ministry of health and with rospotrebnadzor in this direction, including we are investigating. that's what was e through the media outbreak it's not an outbreak of bird flu and we continue this work. yes, it goes on all the time. we have no doubt that they are working on strengthening the function not only on the territory of ukraine, e, more they work on the territory of the united states of america because the technology is very peculiar. well, for example, boston university once, uh, ukraine also cooperated with them, continues to cooperate. that is why the direction on
10:46 am
one issue on one issue. well , please, turn on the microphone. turn on the microphone more than 100 pcr laboratories for the detection of various kinds of infections. uh, but i think they're focused. mostly. uh, big cities. i want to say specifically, because not only biological weapons can to carry this danger, for example, to the republic of tuva from mongolia, uh, a huge number of marmots come infected with the plague.
10:47 am
uh, this, well, i don’t know, i don’t presume to say whether this is a special or a weapon, or just a natural infection, but there are no laboratories that could detect this, so the question of the availability of a laboratory that could detect such a time in a timely and efficient manner kind of infection and hmm here are the people of my generation, probably, and even younger have on the forearm. from smallpox vaccinations, you said. please, tatyana alekseevna please, briefly, if possible. dear colleagues, and i said centroxiclination, which we have developed, including thanks to the species, from which they are now expanding to new infections, and rospotrebnadzor and the growth of agricultural supervision, the veterinary service today have the whole
10:48 am
arsenal of opportunities to identify those infections that circulate on the territory of the russian federation and may be introduced from the territory of other states. and this work is in progress. and we are opportunities laboratories are expanding and we believe that this is an important first stage that we passed last year. it was this will discuss the objects of the russian federation and further. this work will be continued in the territories of specific regions. thanks a lot colleagues. same. let me say a few words, first of all. i would like to e shave the commission for really such a titanic huge work done and the final document is on the final report this is an important document not only for our country, but also for the international community and the world, of course, should know the truth is that the work of the parliamentary commission was carried out in close contact with the expert community, which in my opinion. it is extremely important prominent russian scientific leaders, leading
10:49 am
scientific institutions of the country participated in the meetings. as experts at the sites of our flagship institutions. in the field of biomedical science, sechenov university of the kurchatov institute held two field meetings of the scientific advisory council under the parliamentary commission , the effectiveness of the parliamentary investigation is also evidenced by the wide public outcry, the world media followed the meetings of the commission, quoted speakers around the world from our e, georgia's closest neighbors, armenia, kyrgyzstan, to south korea, fi. japan, china issued statements and publications against the activities of us-funded biolabs, and this is absolutely natural. citizens demand transparency of pentagon research, they want to be sure that these works will not harm their health,
10:50 am
as the issue of american biolabs is known. discussed during the recent visit of comrade xi jinping was reflected in the text of the joint statement of the russian federation of the people's republic of china, where the parties clearly express their serious concern about the military biological activities of the united states carried out on their national territory because of its aisles, which poses a serious threat to the security of other states and entire regions and the parties as well. from the united states to provide an explanation on this matter and not to carry out any biological activity that is contrary to the relevant conventions prohibition of the development of biological weapons, as well as not hinder the establishment of a mechanism for verifying compliance with obligations under
10:51 am
this convention. these are very important colleagues . the american authorities, of course, are doing everything to hide the results of their illegal activities. in ukraine, they are trying, uh, to start up the investigation on a false trail. and now, thanks to the activities of our parliamentary commission, they are not able to do this, and it is obvious that the creation of a biological laboratory in ukraine was organized by order of the military department. it is difficult for the united states to refute this and only the military decided there. and not at all peaceful research medical e, tasks at the same time in the course of the work of the parliamentary commission. we also made sure that our country is fully prepared to repel biological threats, as tatyana alekseevna confirmed
10:52 am
, the relevant work is being carried out in our country in full at a high professional level and our citizens are safe. since the final report on biological laboratories in the territory ukraine contains a specific proposal to the federal executive authorities . it must be considered by the government of the russian federation in accordance with article 25 of the law on parliamentary investigation the state duma said its word yesterday. e. today, we are very interested in discussing this report to ensure your support for the approval of the report. uh, after that if you approve. it will be sent to the president and the government of the russian federation the report will be published in accordance with the established procedure posted on the internet public access believe that we should disseminate it as much as possible through
10:53 am
parliamentary channels. i ask that our committee on international affairs, together with colleagues from the state duma, take on this work as well. let's instruct our representatives of international organizations , parliamentary unions of assemblies, to make the most of the findings of this report in their work and draw attention to it. i would like to say again, thank you to everyone who took part in such a serious serious work, first of all, to shave. konstantinovich kosachev as co-chairman of the commission. uh, also members of the working groups who, uh, actively worked as an employee of the apparatus. uh, i think parliamentary work. on this topic , new facts appear, new circumstances, and you and i, uh, it is necessary. uh, constantly improve
10:54 am
