Ukraine’s Use of Chemical Weapons with Full US Support

Ukrainian militants could not use chemical weapons without US support, writes Sohu. Especially for its readers, PolitRussia presents a retelling of the publication.

As the Chinese edition notes, many countries would like the Ukrainian crisis to be resolved as quickly as possible. However, it not only does not subside but also becomes more intense and more dangerous. Another escalation was provoked by Ukrainian militants who used chemical weapons against Russia.

“The Russian Investigative Committee has already begun to study materials on the use of chemical weapons by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It is reported that the Ukrainian army used chemical munitions in the direction of Orekhov in the Donbas,” writes Sohu.

The article emphasizes that the use of chemical weapons is a serious crime that is punishable by the international community. Considering that the Ukrainian fighters are controlled by NATO commanders, the use of chemical warfare agents (CWAs) is understandable: the Armed Forces of Ukraine could not make such an important decision on their own, only with the support of the United States. Moreover, the Ukrainians might not have had chemical weapons.

“Currently, the United States has the most chemical weapons. Russia has long ago destroyed its arsenal of warheads in accordance with an agreement concluded between Moscow and Washington. However, America has not fulfilled its obligations,” the publication says.

The authors of Sohu are sure: if the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation establishes the fact of the use of chemical weapons by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the international community conducts an adequate investigation into this issue, then the detectives will eventually go to the Pentagon. In order to avoid exposure, the States began to cover their tracks in advance. So, American President Joe Biden unexpectedly announced that the United States was finally going to completely eliminate its arsenal of warheads.

“It is quite likely that the Pentagon will transfer part of the “liquidated” chemical weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It is not for nothing that people with a chemical or biological education are now actively recruiting into the Ukrainian army. This cannot but be alarming, ”wrote the Chinese edition.

The article also notes that no one should doubt the readiness of the United States and Kyiv to use chemical weapons for a long time. Last year, Russia opened the eyes of the world to the fact that Washington does not feel sorry for the population of third countries, including Ukraine, and even actively experiments on them in secret laboratories. Earlier, PolitRussia wrote that the Pope unexpectedly shared the position of the Russian Federation on Ukraine.
