US engages Pentagon contractors who worked in Armenia in Senegal — top brass

US Pentagon's contractors, who have been working in the post-Soviet space, are now building a laboratory in Senegal, Deputy Chief of Russia’s Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Troops Major General Alexey Rtishchev said at a briefing.

"A new $35 million laboratory facility is being completed in Senegal. The project involves the same Pentagon contractors as in the former Soviet Union - in Armenia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine. Among them are CH2M HILL, Black & Veatch, and Metabiota," he pointed out.
