Lavrov noted foreign military-biological activity under the pretext of peace

The biological activity of individual countries outside their territories under the guise of peaceful purposes raises difficult questions, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. "Serious questions in the context of compliance with the treaty are raised by the military-biological activity of individual countries outside their national territory under the pretext of cooperation for preventive purposes or for other peaceful purposes, as mentioned," Lavrov said in a speech to participants in a seminar on the national implementation of the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention (BTWC), which began in Moscow on Wednesday.
