The aggressor country's ministry of defense last week published documents allegedly containing evidence of biological weapons production laboratories existing in Ukraine. At a UN Security Council meeting immediately after this publication, UN Under-Secretary-General and High Representative for Disarmament Affairs, Ms Izumi Nakamitsu said the UN was "unaware" of any biological weapons programs being pursued by Ukraine. There is no evidence whatsoever of this, and so the UN would consider Russia's claim without merit. Ukrinform.
