The Russian and Chinese governments have held an inter-agency meeting in Beijing to share their assessments of biological security concerns, and address the threats posed by bioweapons – particularly those allegedly being developed by the US military.
Moscow and Beijing agreed to work together in seeking to strengthen the Biological and Toxic Weapons Convention (BTWC), a treaty signed by 109 nations in 1972 to block the development of these unconventional armaments, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Thursday in a statement.
“The meeting confirmed the unity of approaches of Russia and China to the biological security,” the ministry said, adding that “particular attention in this context was paid to the military and biological activities of the United States.”
“The need for further close coordination and constructive interaction both in bilateral format and at relevant multilateral fora, primarily within the framework of the BTWC, the UN and the SCO [Shanghai Cooperation Organization] was noted,” the ministry added.
Russia, China, and 14 other nations issued a joint statement in December calling for strengthening the UN’s policing of biological and chemical weapons. “Convinced that such use would be repugnant to the conscience of humankind, we are determined to condemn any use of toxic chemicals, biological agents or toxins as weapons by anyone, anywhere at any time, and to hold accountable those responsible for any such use,” the statement declared.
Moscow and Beijing have repeatedly pressed for greater transparency from the US and its allies regarding their military biological activities. Wednesday’s talks between the two governments devoted “particular attention” to the Pentagon’s bioweapons activities, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
The Russian Embassy in Washington accused the US last year of “gross violations” of the BTWC, including illegal bioweapons research in labs scattered around the world. Washington aims to use dangerous biological agents and artificial epidemics to advance its interests, the embassy claimed.
The US and its NATO allies vetoed a UN resolution last year calling for an investigation of Washington’s biolabs in Ukraine. Some “unfinished” bioweapons projects were moved to Africa amid the conflict in Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry said in November. The ministry accused Washington of exploiting Nigerian citizens as a “free clinical resource,” conducting illegal research on the pretense of public health.
This week’s meetings in Beijing also included talks on Thursday over security threats in outer space. “The sides exchanged their assessments of the current situation in this area,” the Foreign Ministry said. “They stressed the need to continue close cooperation and active joint efforts to prevent an arms race in outer space and its weaponization.”

I am an American patriot living in Russia and have a very different impression from what you claim about Russia. I have been helped by the Russian government and have been featured in their media and literally the only thing that I can think of that I haven’t been 100% elated with is that they have sometimes put gay pride parade footage on screen during quotes of me talking about why we moved. And I think we here can agree that that was a reasonable thing for them to do. I am not sure what you are referring to when you call this a a communist country — small business is way, way more thriving than I ever experienced in the USA. There are many markets everywhere and people are used to buying from small businesses.
Feel free to point to something that you think supports the idea that Russia would mop the floor with dead American bodies, and I will respond with my thoughts.
So anyone who’s business was shut down can move to Russia and reopen?
You are correct Anon. Thank you for this insight.
That's very good feedback. Thank you. Your personal experience living there is better than my experience. That is for sure.
My main basis is that I see China as the biggest threat in the world. If China and Russia are teaming up together, that doesn't give me warm and fuzzies.
Russia of old did take all of the countries they passed through on the way to Berlin and created the soviet empire. I believe Krushchev said Russia would eventually win the cold war because because communism is a decades long process.
Look at America now? We've had massive commie indoctrination everywhere. They are after our bill of rights and in many cases winning.
The precipice we talk about is nearly hear and communism in our midst is a big part of the American tragedy.
Glad things are going well in Russia, but back home, we are under full fledged attack in our schools, at the border, in our media, in our political offices, in board rooms, in small businesses, in our churches, and pretty much everywhere else.
Don’t forget the fact that Russia was the Russian Empire before the deep state overthrew Tsar Nikolai II. In 2020 Russia adopted a new constitution that claims that it is the successor state to the Russian Empire. Also note that while it is kept quiet, Russia has problems with invasions of Chinese. They’ll come and log large areas and leave. This is not simple stuff — statecraft is difficult and complex.
Great additional feedback. Thank you u/Anosha 👈🏻
I am not sure having a monarchy would have lasted forever, but switching to communism certainly wasn't the answer.
The US is no poster child for how to run a nation, at least not anymore. I believe we were when we were first founded, but the Constitutional Republic of our Founders has been disintegrating from within for decades.
There is an evil rot that takes hold within all governments, I suspect, and it is up to The People to restore the order.
