Assumptions about the presence of biological and chemical weapons of the United States in Europe are not true, said US President Joe Biden at a meeting with representatives of American business, which discussed the situation in Ukraine.

At the same time, he added that the Russian authorities “assume that Ukraine has biological weapons on the territory of the country,” and said that this is a “clear sign” that the Russian authorities are allegedly “exploring the possibility of using” both of these types of weapons, TASS reports. .

Earlier, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that the US authorities have “real concerns” that the Russian Federation could allegedly use chemical weapons or other weapons of mass destruction.

The authorities of the Russian Federation, in turn, suspect Kyiv and Washington of preparing a “large-scale provocation with chemical weapons”.

On February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin made an emergency appeal to the Russians and announced a special military operation in the Donbass. In his speech, he stated that “circumstances require decisive action from Russia” and stressed that “Russia will not allow Ukraine to have nuclear weapons.” In response to Russia’s actions, Western countries (USA, Canada, EU, UK, Japan) announced new, tougher sanctions against the Russian Federation, including financial and economic ones.
