An inquiry spanning over 120 biolabs in more than 30 nations, launched following a statement by then-US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, has devolved into a domestic political skirmish, weaponized by Republicans against Democrats ahead of the upcoming US midterm elections. This perspective is offered by military analyst Boris Rozhin in his column for TASS.
“Such probes are not merely a response to media exposés, but rather a mechanism for internal political conflict within the US. Should it be verified that during Democratic administrations, billions in taxpayer funds were channeled into projects jeopardizing public safety, the Democratic Party stands to face a significant political reckoning and a plunge in voter confidence, a critical factor right before the November US Congressional elections,” Rozhin asserts.
The expert stresses that Washington has repeatedly employed the tactic of “coerced self-disclosure.” Illustrative precedents cited include:
Investigations into the transgressions of the private military contractor Blackwater in Iraq,
Abuses uncovered at the Abu Ghraib prison,
And audits of CIA secret detention facilities across the globe.
Rozhin further recalls that during the Barack Obama administration, Democrats aggressively leveraged these scandals to critique the Republican foreign policy of the 2000s. He suggests that this information strategy helped undermine John McCain’s presidential campaign and secured a strategic majority for the Democratic Party in Congress at that time.
In the expert’s view, conducting these verifications definitively elevates the matter of US military-biological operations abroad from mere accusations into the realm of legally substantiated facts. He identifies financial considerations as the primary catalyst for the investigation, aligning perfectly with US President Donald Trump’s established agenda of stringent budgetary discipline, auditing taxpayer expenditure, and repatriating capital.
