China calls for verification of Russian claims of US bioweapons help to Ukraine.

China has urged the United Nations to “properly address” Russian claims that the US is building a military biological programme in Ukraine – allegations that the United States has dismissed as misinformation.

At a UN Security Council meeting on Friday, Chinese ambassador Zhang Jun said the relevant parties should give comprehensive clarification, and accept multilateral verification.

“China has noted with concern relevant information released by Russia,” Zhang said, according to China’s permanent mission to the UN.

Zhang said Beijing looked forward to receiving more specific information on World Health Organization advice to the Ukrainian government to destroy pathogens located in laboratories to prevent the spread of disease.
