JOHN KIRBY QUOTES FROM 03/09/2022
Pentagon Press Secretary John F. Kirby Holds a Press Briefing, March 9, 2022
Q: And on this issue of military biological labs in Ukraine that the Russians keep raising?
MR. KIRBY: Yes.
Q: Can you basically explain to us what the relationship if any, there was between the Pentagon and the Ukrainian side on any biological labs? When was the last cooperation and what do you have to say about these Russian accusations?
MR. KIRBY: The Russian accusations are absurd. They're laughable. And you know, in the words of my Irish Catholic grandfather, a bunch of malarkey. There's nothing to it. It's classic Russian propaganda. And, and I wouldn't, if I were you, I wouldn't give it a drop of ink worth paying attention to.
Q: Yes. But could you explain to us what -- has there been any relationship between...
MR. KIRBY: We are not, not developing biological or chemical weapons inside Ukraine. It's not happening. Yes.
Q: Thanks, John.
