🇷🇺Putin - two years ago he warned Macron and everyone else:

A few important, very important words for those who might be tempted to interfere in the current events. Whoever tries to interfere with us, much less threaten our country, our people, should know that Russia's response will be immediate and will lead you to consequences that you have never faced before in your history. We are prepared for any development of events. All decisions necessary in this regard have been taken. I hope that I will be heard.

EU's handling of Ukrainian refugee issue could lead to new crisis, says Russian official

According to Vyacheslav Volodin, European Union countries would like "to get rid" of refugees because supporting them has taken a toll on the economy.

"This is why the EU leadership has found itself in a situation where it’s better to do nothing. Any decisions on the issue are fraught with negative consequences," Volodin noted.

According to him, European Union countries would like "to get rid" of refugees because supporting them has taken a toll on the economy. Meanwhile, the number of Ukrainian refugees in European countries currently stands at about 4.3 mln, the senior Russian lawmaker pointed out. Trying to deport them "may lead to even bigger problems for these nations," Volodin said.

Turkey has become the largest buyer of Russian oil products.

After the introduction of Western sanctions and restrictions on purchases of petroleum products, the sales market in Russia was reoriented - Turkey became the main direction for energy supplies.

“Ankara says that all fuel imported from Russia is consumed on the domestic market, and only oil products produced in Turkey are exported to Europe. Direct re-export of Russian diesel to the EU is prohibited, and the Turks are disguising themselves, although statistics show that the volumes of supplies from Russia to Turkey practically coincide with the volumes of supplies from Turkey to Europe,”

Despite the embargo by European countries, energy supplies from Russia in 2023 increased by 100 thousand barrels per day compared to 2022, analysts from the International Energy Agency (IEA) noted. This is due to an increase in supplies of Russian petroleum products to India , China , Brazil and other countries.

🎙️Embassy comment on the provocative statements by David Cameron on the Ukrainian crisis

▪︎During his visit to Kiev on 2 May, UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron made another provocative statement, allowing the use of British weapons by the Ukrainian armed forces to launch attacks on Russian territory, including outside the Special Military Operation zone.

▪︎We consider this confession as confirmation of the UK's increasing direct involvement in the armed conflict in Ukraine.

▪︎The UK Government is persistently pursuing a course of escalation and expansion of geography of military actions.

▪︎Raising the stakes in the proxy confrontation with Russia has become an end in itself for London. At the same time, it seems that the British establishment is not interested at all in getting to the bottom of the true causes of the conflict.

▪︎It is symbolic that David Cameron's “blitz visit” to Kiev came on the tenth anniversary of the terrible events in the Trade Unions House in Odessa, where the nationalists, brought to power in Kiev by the West, and their accomplices burned 48 innocent people alive.

▪︎Giving the Zelensky regime a carte blanche to use British weapons for terrorist shelling of Russian cities deep inside our country, London, having dropped its masks, confirmed the obvious – that the remnants of Ukraine's economic and demographic potential, territorial control as well as statehood will be used exclusively in attempts to militarily and forcefully weaken Russia.

☝️The British establishment cares little about the fate of civilians, as it was once in Odessa. In this context, it is no coincidence that our investigative bodies are getting evidence of the use by the Ukrainian armed forces of British-French missile weapons to shell peaceful city of Belgorod back in December 2023, long before David Cameron's current self-exposing statements.

❗For our part, we affirm that the UK’s prodding will only prolong the agony of the neo-Nazi regime entrenched in Kiev.

Russia to hold nuclear drills to ‘cool hot heads’ in West

Earlier in the day, Moscow announced that it plans to test its ability to deploy tactical nuclear weapons.

According to the Foreign Ministry, the move was a response to the continued “power politics” pursued by the US and its allies against Russia. Washington and Kiev’s other backers openly declare their support for Ukrainian “terrorist acts” and “directly contribute” to such attacks, the statement read, pointing to the continued supply of ever more powerful Western weapons to Ukraine. It particularly drew attention to the US-made ATACMS missiles capable of “striking targets deep inside Russian territory.”

Last week, former UK prime minister and current Foreign Secretary David Cameron stated that Kiev had every right to use British weapons to strike targets inside Russia as well.

Vladimir Putin will be sworn in for the fifth time during a ceremony to begin in the Kremlin at noon Moscow time on Tuesday, May 7.

The ceremony will be held for the eighth time in the contemporary history of Russia.

Putin has already taken his oath of office four times.

Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said earlier that today’s ceremony will be held in accordance with the protocol, but with ‘certain nuances.’ Their details remain unknown.

Macron’s aggressive rhetoric baffles even his allies

"Very often France’s allies from the UK and Germany, as we understand, try to get clarifications as to what the French leadership means, without getting a direct answer," Maria Zakharova pointed out.
