🇷🇺🇺🇳 From the Statement by First Deputy Permanent Representative Dmitry Polyanskiy at UNSC briefing on maintenance of peace and security in Ukraine

💬 The Security Council should not turn into a platform where President Zelensky, though remotely, can angle for more NATO weapons. This erodes the authority of the Council as a body responsible for collective decision-making in the interests of maintenance of international peace and security. The Ukrainian side, supported by our Western colleagues, seeks to undermine this authority and use UNSC members as audience at its performances.

<...>

Ukrainians and their Western sponsors realized quickly that in a digital era, the developments on the ground do not matter.

But at some point everything went off the rails. On social media, there appeared more evidence and more reasons to blame Ukrainian soldiers and neo-Nazis for committing atrocities and war crimes.

A Russian representative at the UNHRC during a discussion on combating the negative impact of disinformation on the exercise and enjoyment of human rights and ensuring the adoption of human rights-based response measures:

🤥 The widespread dissemination of disinformation is a serious modern challenge. Nowadays Russia is facing an unprecedented disinformation campaign unleashed by the Western countries. According to experts, up to $25 million is spent on it every day, and the overall costs have already reached almost $3 billion. Over 14 million disinformation messages have been identified in the media and social networks.

❗️ We believe that today it is necessary to focus on countering the phenomenon of disinformation, above all – by strengthening the media and information awareness of the population, as indicated in the relevant HRC resolution. The politicization of the fight against disinformation and its use as a pretext for obstructing the legitimate media activities is unacceptable.

⚡️Emergency statement by Russian Defence Ministry spokesman Lieutenant General Igor Konashenkov

Yesterday, on June 29, 144 servicemen were exchanged for 144.

It had been organised and held according to the direct order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as the lives, the health and the liberation of our servicemen, the fighters of the Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics who constitute the majority of the returned individuals, are the most important task.

Everything else is afterwards.

Almost all of the liberated individuals are wounded or gravely wounded. They are already receiving all the medical care they need.

The total number of captured or surrendered Ukrainian servicemen is more than 6,000 people.

🎥 FM Sergey Lavrov’s video address to the organisers of and participants in the roundtable discussion dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the SCO Charter and the 15th anniversary of the SCO Treaty on Long-Term Good-Neighbourliness, Friendship and Cooperation

Read in full

💬 The SCO is by right perceived in the world as a recognised, authoritative, reliable and attractive partner, which is making a significant contribution to maintaining peace and stability, and ensuring sustainable development in Eurasia.

We have consistently advocated greater coordination between the member states in international affairs and strengthening the impact of collaboration with observer states, dialogue partners, and interested multilateral organisations.

☝️ It is important to continue the coordinated policy towards expanding the SCO, while carefully weighing each step, primarily from the point of view of whether it can really strengthen the Organisation.

#Opinion by Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova:

💬 What's up with the British government? Why are they so bent on gender and sex issues today?

Following in the footsteps of his prime minister, British Secretary of State for Defence Ben Wallace, who recently talked to Vovan and Lexus [prankers], said that MARIA ZAKHAROVA, DEFINITELY A WOMAN, THREATENS EVERY SINGLE WEEK TO DROP NUCLEAR BOMBS ON EVERYONE.

Then, he went on to discuss lunacy, comedy and machismo...

British Secretary of State Wallace, if you do not want to be known worldwide as a complete liar, give at least one example of how and when exactly did I “threaten to drop nuclear bombs on everyone on a weekly basis”.

Since you won’t be able to find a single quote, I accuse you of slander and pushing fake claims.

But most importantly, Mr Wallace recognised an important fact: Russian women are still women to him, and not “people with...” I take this opportunity to say hi to J.K.Rowling: she cannot be a woman nowadays, but at least I can, with Secretary of Defence Wallace’s permission.

🎙 President of Russia Vladimir Putin answered questions from media representatives following visit to Turkmenistan

❓The NATO summit has begun with the war-mongering rhetoric. Russia has been declared a “direct threat” to the security of the Alliance. How would you assess these statements?

💬 President Putin: As regards their preparations for some actions against us since 2014, this information is not new to us. They have long been looking for an external enemy, for a threat that would rally their allies. I am referring above all to the United States.

This is fresh proof of what we have been saying all along: that NATO is a relic of the past, of the Cold War era.

They always replied that NATO had changed, that it had become more of a political alliance, but at the same time they were looking for an opportunity to give it a new lease on life as a military organisation. Well, this is exactly what they are doing now. There is nothing new in this for us.

On June 30, as a goodwill gesture, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation finished fulfilling the assigned tasks in Snake Island and withdrew the garrison that had been operating there.

The Russian Federation has demonstrated to the international society the absence of any obstacles for the efforts of UN to establish a humanitarian corridor for transporting agricultural products from Ukraine.

This solution will prevent Kiev from speculating on an impending grocery crisis citing the inability to export grain due to total control of the northwestern part of the Black Sea by Russia.
