⚡️ Statement by the Russian Defence Ministry ⚡️

The Russian Defence Ministry denies accusations of Kiev regime of allegedly killing civilians in Bucha, Kiev Region

Facts 👇

❗️All the photos and videos published by the Kiev regime allegedly testifying to some "crimes" committed by Russian servicemen in Bucha, Kiev region are just another provocation.

During the time that the town has been under the control of the Russian armed forces, not a single local resident has suffered from any violent action. Russian servicemen have delivered and distributed 452 tonnes of humanitarian aid to civilians in Kiev Region.

For as long as the town was under the control of the Russian armed forces and even then, up to now, locals in Bucha were moving freely around the town and using cellular phones.

The exits from Bucha were not blocked. All local residents were free to leave the town in northern direction, including to the Republic of Belarus. At the same time, the southern outskirts of the city, including residential areas, were shelled round the clock by Ukrainian troops with large-calibre artillery, tanks and multiple launch rocket systems.

❗️We would like to emphasise that all Russian units withdrew completely from Bucha as early as March 30, the day after the Russia-Ukraine face-to-face round of talks in Turkey.

Moreover, on March 31, the mayor of Bucha, Anatoliy Fedoruk, confirmed in a video message that there were no Russian servicemen in the town, but he did not even mention any locals shot in the streets with their hands tied.

👉 It is not surprising, therefore, that all the so-called "evidence of crimes" in Bucha did not emerge until the fourth day, when the Security Service of Ukraine and representatives of Ukrainian media arrived in the town.

It is of particular worry that all the bodies of the people whose images have been published by the Kiev regime are not stiffened after at least four days, have no typical cadaver stains, and the wounds contain unconsumed blood.

❗️All this confirms conclusively that the photos and video footage from Bucha are another hoax, a staged production and provocation by the Kiev regime for the Western media, as was the case in Mariupol with the maternity hospital, as well as in other cities.

You remember Marianna, right?

Here’s the part of her interview, in which she confirmes:

🔹 the Ukrainian military did occupy the Mariupol maternity hospital #3 (#humanshields)
🔹 they provided no help whatsoever, and even took their food
🔹 there were no airstrikes
🔹 A cameraman was on-site on March 9, at the time of the two explosions

‘Sanctions games’ weaken dollar and euro – Kremlin

The prestige of the US dollar and the euro has been “greatly shaken” by anti-Russia sanctions, which now drive more and more countries to switch to national currencies in settlements with foreign partners, according to Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Indeed, against the backdrop of these thug-like sanctions games, the prestige of the dollar and the euro has been shaken, most importantly, [the role of] the dollar as the main reserve currency,” Peskov said in an interview with Belarus-24 TV channel.

Here’s Anatoliy Fedoruk, the mayor of Bucha, reporting on March 31 that the city is free from the Russian troops, who withdrew the day before.

Not a single word on the tragedy. Either he was too blind too see all the reported dead in the streets, or they appeared there much later…

⚡️Russian FM Lavrov on Bucha incident:

▪️ Russian armed forces left city on March 30, and then for days Bucha’s mayor was stating that “life returning to normal”

▪️Before Ukrainian army arrived, Ukrainian-shot footage from Bucha showed no bodies in streets. Three days later, Ukrainian authorities presumably decided to “stage something”

INCONSISTENCIES with the “Bucha massacre” - Part 1

Ms. Katerina Ukraintseva, Bucha City Council Deputy, stated on an April 4 interview that the bodies have been “lying on the city’s main street for a month”.

Yet neither the city’s mayor, nor the Ukrainian National police, nor herself immediately reported on the atrocities upon arrival to Bucha (from March 31 till April 2).

The Russian troops, however, withdrew from the city on March 30.

INCONSISTENCIES with the “Bucha massacre” - Part 2

The main reports on Bucha came out after the Ukrainian military finished conducting a “sweep” (or purge) of the city, also looking for “diversionists and Russian collaborators”.

A reminder of how despicably cruel and barbaric the Ukrainian military and its nationalistic battalions can be 👇

⚡️ Заявление МИД России о персональных санкциях в отношении представителей высшего руководства и парламентариев Австралии 🇦🇺

Читать полностью

Послушно следуя курсом «коллективного Запада», Канберра в безоглядном русофобском запале ввела санкции, которые затронули высших руководителей Российской Федерации и практически весь депутатский корпус. В ответ с 7 апреля с.г. в «стоп-лист» лиц, которым закрыт въезд в Россию, включаются члены австралийского комитета по национальной безопасности, палаты представителей, сената и региональных законодательных собраний.

Данный шаг предпринят в порядке реакции на недружественные действия нынешнего австралийского правительства, готового поддерживать любые действия, нацеленные на сдерживание России.

В ближайшее время последуют новые объявления о расширении санкционного «черного списка» <...>.

☝️ Каждый антироссийский шаг получит решительный отпор.
