Russia renewed allegations that the U.S. is funding bioweapons labs in Ukraine at the United Nations Security Council on Friday, claiming it has evidence of such facilities.
Further, Russia accused the U.S. of running a biological weapons program about which it was keeping Ukraine in the dark.
It also claimed on Friday that Ukrainian nationalists had used chemical agents to “carry out a provocation” in some regions of the country, in order to accuse Russia of carrying out the attacks.
The U.S. ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said the U.S. would not “dignify Russia’s disinformation or conspiracy theories” and said Moscow has “repeatedly lied” to the Security Council in recent weeks.
“We’re not buying what they’re selling, literally or figuratively,” she said, adding that Ukraine does not have biological weapons laboratories: “not near Russia’s border, not anywhere.”
