The collection of the biological material of Russians is engaged in "some emissaries", "representatives of the NPO". According to RBC, Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of Vladimir Putin, announced this, commenting on the statement of his boss on the eve.
“This is information on the line of special services of the Russian Federation,” the official explained.
On Monday, Putin, speaking at a meeting of the Presidential Council for Human Rights, said : "You know that biological material is assembled throughout the country, and for various ethnic groups and people living in different geographical points of the Russian Federation."
“Why do they do this?” The head of state continued. “They do purposefully and professionally. We are such and such an object of great interest.”
At the same time, Putin called "without any fears of this." “Let them do what they want, and we must do what we should,” he concluded.
As the Mediazone recalls , at the end of July, the Prochrevsky television channel RT released a report “Military interest: the US Air Force wants to purchase samples of living fabrics of Russians”. The report stated that one of the US Air Force divisions announced a tender for the supply of biomaterials received from residents of Russia. It was about the synovial fluid and RNA of representatives of the Caucasian race, and it was emphasized that the genetic material collected in Ukraine is not suitable. It was also indicated that the materials should be obtained from donors that do not have HIV infection, hepatitis, syphilis and injuries of the musculoskeletal system.
In a commentary on the report, a certain Igor Nikulin, presented as a “military expert and a former member of the UN Biological Weapon Commission,” clearly stated that the US military intends to develop biological weapons against Russians.
Information was replicated by other pro-Kremlin resources, in particular NTV, REN-TV and Star.
Meanwhile, the biochemist Mikhail Gelfand, a member of the VAK Presidium and the former member of the opposition coordinating council, in the commentary of the National News Service given after Putin’s statement, noted : “Someone was very deceived by Putin. Not all Russian ethnic groups, but only Russians. Judging by the information that is, we are talking about genetic determinants of joint diseases. I don’t know why they are Russian, possibly because they are Russian They want to separate the mutations that cause a predisposition from a purely historical trace. ”
“About genetic weapons, this is some kind of disgusting lie,” the scientist continued. “There is no such weapon. People are too similar to each other so that you can create a specific weapon against some race. Probably, it is possible to create - very expensive and very difficult to create a weapon against some very small ethnic group that has not been mixed with anyone for the last thousand years. The Russians have not been such an ethnic group.”
