armed conflict in Ukraine - Opis:
- Objectives: The purpose of the article was to present Russia's activities in terms of the production of biological and chemical weapons, and her research into the effects of its use. In the light of the goal defined in this way, the research problem was formulated, which is presented in the form of a question: is it likely that Russia will use biological or chemical weapons in its war with Ukraine? Methods: Test methods used in the research process mainly included an in-depth analysis of source materials - legal acts, compacts and scientific articles concerning the operation of plants producing weapons of mass destruction in Russia. Results: Findings confirmed the adopted hypothesis, that Russia has both biological and chemical weapons, and the capabilities to use them. From the day of the armed attack on Ukraine, Russia has been committing various provocations, aimed at justifying the possible use of this deadly weapon. To verify the hypothesis put forward earlier, an in-depth analysis of Russia's previous activities focused on the production and research of weapons of mass destruction and the observation of the course of the ongoing war was required. Conclusions: The conclusions of the conducted research indicate on the likelihood of Russia using biological or chemical weapons in the ongoing military conflict with Ukraine, resulting from the dynamics of the war, the deteriorating economic situation in Russia and the imposition of increasingly stringent sanctions against it.
