Can anyone say strawman? Having labs is not equal to having bioweapons

  The CGTN article doesn't claim bioweapons. It's Newsweek who said they did and build that strawman. edit: removed snark

    So why would they mention a "biolab" in Ukraine unless to imply that it somehow poses a threat to Russia? Or did they also mention that there are post offices in Ukraine?

      If the US had USPS offices around ukraine delivering mail it would probably have been news worthy, yes.

      This exact same website that is posted by OP (Axios) reported: Ukraine warns Chernobyl nuclear plant is without power [1] Now, most experts say there is nothing to worry about. Why did they report this unless to imply that it somehow poses a threat to the world? Or did they also mention that there are post offices in Ukraine without power? Very similar, ain't it?
