"There were no such claims."

There certainly was claims of bees reported to be dealing varroa over there. They heard then explored the claims.

"The USDA-ARS Honey Bee Breeding, Genetics & Physiology lab, Baton Rouge, LA, explored whether such resistance might be found in Primorye populations of honey bees in the autumn of 1994. Data were collected showing that colonies in the area did have Varroa infestation, but that the levels were lower compared to U.S. colonies."
