In a startling press briefing, the Russian Ministry of Defense (MOD) has accused billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates of funding bioterrorism-related activities with the alleged goal of reducing global populations. Major General Aleksei Rtishchev, Deputy Chief of Russia’s Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Protection Troops, delivered the explosive claims, asserting that the Gates Foundation is a primary sponsor of U.S. biological research in Africa. The allegations, which also implicate the Clinton Foundation, come amid growing scrutiny of Gates’ controversial experiments in developing nations, including his recent admission of using India as a “laboratory” for vaccine trials. The Russian MOD’s claims, if proven, could have far-reaching implications for global health governance and the ethical boundaries of scientific research.
The Russian MOD’s briefing painted a grim picture of U.S. biological activities in Africa, alleging that the continent is being exploited as a testing ground for dangerous pathogens and experimental drugs. Major General Rtishchev claimed that American specialists are actively enhancing the pathogenic functions of microorganisms, raising concerns about the potential for bioterrorism. “The U.S. administration views the region as an unlimited natural reservoir of dangerous infectious agents and a testing ground for experimental medical drugs,” Rtishchev stated.
The Russian military leader also accused the Gates Foundation and Clinton Foundation of sponsoring these activities, which he claims are part of a broader strategy to manage biological risks. According to Rtishchev, the U.S. has established a network of biological laboratories across Africa, including in Nigeria, Kenya, Senegal, Ghana, and Djibouti. These facilities, he alleges, are part of a Pentagon-backed initiative to monitor and manipulate infectious diseases, with potential consequences for global health security.
