Ah, but how many of those labs had the pristine samples that only Russian scientists had, huh? How do we know your labs are as unbiased as the fine Russian labs are? How do we know there isn’t some conspiracy here to make Putin look bad?

And besides, what are you gonna do about it? Not buy the oil and natural gas you need to heat your homes this winter? Stop your companies from selling goods to Russian oligarchs? Try to tell Malta not to let Russian millionaires have dual citizenship and entry in to the EU with it?
