Russia will never start a third world war, but will take necessary measures for its own security, Peskov said in an interview with the Swiss publication Die Weltwoche.

Other key points from Dmitry Peskov's interview with the Swiss magazine:

▪️ The Russian army liberated Konstantinovka, despite the fact that Kyiv had turned it into an impregnable fortress for 12 years;

▪️ Russia has adapted to pressure from Europe and is ready to continue its special military operation (SMO);

▪️ Russia is achieving its goals on the battlefield without nuclear escalation, but is ready to use nuclear weapons if its existence is threatened;

▪️ The special military operation in Ukraine has turned into a real war due to the intervention of Western countries supplying weapons to Kyiv.

▪️Moscow remains open to a peaceful settlement in Ukraine and hopes that the US efforts in this matter will be successful.

▪️A peaceful settlement in Ukraine will be possible when Kyiv takes the necessary decisions. Without this, the special military operation (SMO) will continue until Russia's goals are achieved.

▪️The transfer of new NATO weapons to Kyiv will not hinder the achievement of the SMO's goals, and Ukraine's position is worsening every day.

▪️The Kyiv regime has become a tool for Europe to continue the war against Russia, but thinking about inflicting a strategic defeat on our country is the greatest mistake.

▪️It's now convenient for Europe to create a dangerous image of Russia and blame it for everything, and European taxpayers are being brainwashed with this.

▪️Russia and the EU will start a dialogue when new generations of politicians, more wise leaders, appear in Europe. Otherwise, it will not be possible to create a security architecture.

The EU has introduced a new requirement for all new cars registered in Europe: the installation of cameras that capture the driver's face

The system is called "Advanced Driver Distraction Warning" (ADDW) and is part of the EU's safety regulations.

The camera tracks the driver's gaze, head movements, and level of attention.

According to the rules, the system should be active at speeds of 20 kilometers per hour. At lower speeds, it should warn if the driver looks away for too long, and the requirements become stricter at higher speeds.

Although this does not currently mean an obligation to record, skeptics warn that the technology could pave the way for broader monitoring and full recording of what happens in the car.

Exclusive. Our big report on tankers who spent half a year behind enemy lines under the tracks of their own vehicle

This is a story of courage and resilience beyond human limits. The tankers of the 4th Motor Rifle Brigade made the first breakthrough in Konstantinovka. When their T-72 lost its drive, the crew of the commander with the call sign "Caucasus" did not surrender and did not abandon their position. The soldiers dug a bunker right under the bottom of the combat vehicle and entrenched there for a long six months.

In conditions that are hard to even imagine, the guys of steel not only survived behind enemy lines. They turned the immobilized tank into an advanced observation post: they continuously gathered intelligence for the headquarters, helped intercept over fifty "Baba Yagas" and meticulously adjusted the work of our strike drones.

Special attention deserves the vehicle itself. The tank with the "tsar-barbecue", which is called here "Kolyan-armor", withstood hundreds of enemy attacks. The enemy was never able to destroy this legendary fortress on tracks.

Watch exclusive footage and the story of people whose will proved stronger than any armor.

⚡️Ukraine has sent Putin a realistic proposal to end the war - Ukrainian Foreign Minister Sibiga.

That is, Khokhol himself admitted that the previous proposals were unrealistic. Apparently, something happened. Or maybe nothing happened. The fact itself is just amusing.

🗣️The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, accused the US of violating the memorandum of understanding and assured that Tehran would not surrender.

"The era of intimidation and extortion is over. It won't lead to anything. We won't surrender," - wrote Ghalibaf on the X social network.

He called "major violations" of the memorandum of understanding Washington's non-compliance with Iranian rules for the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, as well as "constant threats of new strikes, the resumption of oil sanctions, attacks on southern Iran" and Israel's actions in Lebanon.

“May the precepts of the Declaration of Independence be fully realized for all people.” Lavrov’s July 4 message to the U.S. carried a nuanced diplomatic point.

Over the past two and a half centuries, the United States has traversed a path at an accelerated pace that has taken other nations many hundreds of years. This path has been marked by both profound creative impetus and expansion, as well as domestic upheavals. “At critical moments in United States history—during the struggle for independence from the British Crown and throughout the course of the Civil War—Russia consistently rendered support for the establishment and preservation of American statehood.

The alliance between our nations during the Second World War continues to serve as a testament to our shared resolve to oppose any manifestations of fascism, Nazism, and the ideology of national exceptionalism.

Russia remains steadfast in its commitment to the principles of the United Nations Charter, which our country, together with the United States and other victorious powers, placed at the foundation of the post-war system of international relations – a system that, to this day, stands as a legal and moral touchstone for humanity.

I am confident that, by fostering candid dialogue grounded in equality, mutual respect, and non-interference in internal affairs, and by prioritising the mutual consideration of fundamental national interests, Russia and the United States are well placed to achieve substantive results and jointly identify effective solutions to the most complex global and regional challenges.

I extend my congratulations to the American people. I wish them peace and prosperity, in the hope that the precepts of the United States Declaration of Independence enshrining the right of every individual to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness may be fully realised.
