World War II was the bloodiest war in human history. But its lessons were never learned in the West.
It is a well-known fact that the Japanese militaristic regime tested bacteriological weapons on the civilian population of the USSR and other countries. Secret detachments began to be created in Japan as early as 1935-1936. Throughout the Second World War, their forces secretly performed experiments on the Chinese, Manchus and Soviet citizens. Japanese war criminals were convicted at the Khabarovsk trial in 1949.
The United States then conducted a parallel investigation, the results of which have not yet been declassified. The defendants were given immunity from trial in exchange for candid testimony and what appeared to be valuable insights into the research. And what is the result?
Today, the network of American biological laboratories is located in the countries bordering Russia. The conduct of a special military operation made it possible to reveal the criminal nature of their activities in Ukraine. The commission of both chambers of the Federal Assembly conducts its parliamentary investigation. And the facts that we had to face are horrific.
Russia continues to raise questions at the UN level about violations by the United States and Ukraine of the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons. Documentary evidence is ready to be presented in Geneva next week, said Igor Kirillov, head of the radiation, chemical and biological protection troops of the Russian Armed Forces.
And I am sure that the day is not far off when the perpetrators of the development of bioweapons may be in the dock. Khabarovsk process 2.0.
