🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks and answers to questions at a meeting with students in the Republic of Belarus
💬 The current problems are not rooted in the West’s concern over developments in Ukraine. The West has much more ambitious schemes. They reflect the realisation that its 500-year era of dominance in world affairs has not only approaching the end but that it is being relegated to the past.
The West’s current actions reveal its all-out desire to prevent objective historical process from taking place and to maintain its dominance at any cost. You can see how they go to any length. They finish this drive with economic sanctions that they impose on our countries, among others.
Recently, a White House official said yet again that neither Russia nor anyone else, for that matter, should be apprehensive of NATO because it is only a defensive organisation. This is ridiculous. Adults should be ashamed to say nonsense like this.

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova
Minister of Culture of Ukraine Alexander Tkachenko announced that UNESCO added Ukrainian borsch to the list of intangible cultural heritage in need of urgent safeguarding: “The battle for borsch started even before the war. No matter how many times Masha Zakharova says that ‘cookbooks are banned and the recipe for borsch was kept secret and making it was banned,’ now borsch is officially Ukrainian.” He also said that “we will be happy to share borsch and its recipes with all civilized countries. We will share them with uncivilized people as well to let them have at least something delicious, memorable and Ukrainian.”
💬 Oleksandr, so Ukrainian borsch is now recognised as intangible heritage that requires urgent safeguarding? It’s a pity, before it was simply eaten.
Our borsch does not require protection. It is supposed to be immediately annihilated in the bowl. 😋
To explain on a culinary example what “modern Kiev nationalism” is all about, I will cite a fact: humus and pilaf are recognised as national meals of several nations. But, as I see it, everything is due to be Ukrainianised. What next? Will pork be also classified as “Ukrainian national product?”
By the way, here’s a note for nationalists that hate everything Russian. It follows from the first mention of borsch(t) - in the travel notes of Martin Gruneweg, a merchant from Danzig, 1584-1585 - that it is a meal of the Russian residents of Kiev.
Now, live with that, would you 😜

#Zakharova: All BRICS member states have full sovereignty, their own foreign political interests and priorities.
Mutual respect and mutual benefit are the foundation for dialogue and development within BRICS.
Unlike the European Union or NATO, our association does not have any intra-bloc discipline or restrictions on contacts with other participants in international communication.
BRICS has never set itself in opposition to anyone and consistently speaks for creating a more just, not pseudo-democratic, but a truly democratic and multipolar world order based on international law and a pragmatic balance of interests.
BRICS does not have a hegemon that forces its interests on the others. The agenda is built based on the interests of all members of the group.
The world is not limited to the collective West. It is much more diverse.

DPR Head Denis Pushilin:
Dear Leonid Ivanovich! Residents of the Lugansk People's Republic! Brothers!
From the bottom of my heart, together with the citizens of the allied Donetsk People's Republic, I congratulate you on long-awaited liberation from the Ukrainian neo-Nazi regime.
For a long eight years you have been going to this moment, overcoming many difficulties, but you have reached the goal. Today begins a new story that we enter together.
Eight years of struggle for your identity, for your belonging to Russia, to the Russian world ended with your victory.
I want to recall those who made this victory possible - the faithful Donbass sons, as well as our brothers from all over Russia, who paid with their priceless lives for this victory. The duty to their memory has been fulfilled, their dream has come true: from now the Lugansk People's Republic is free.

⚡️ Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Ukrainian Armed Forces’ strikes on residential areas of Belgorod and Kursk.
Video with ENG subs to be uploaded shortly
💬 The goal of the Kiev regime is to strike the residential areas of cities with unguided weapons. This is far from the first time something similar has happened.
We understand that these actions of the regime in Kiev were not only agreed upon with its western superintendents but were also most likely prompted by them. They do this to force us into striking back in a similar fashion so they can carry on hyping their anti-Russian hysteria.
We have abstained from making such steps, but we will be monitoring these developments very carefully. Those who have been acting in this fashion should be aware that they will have to pay a hefty price should these provocations continue.

Journos Call Out Biden's Tendency to Avoid Tough Questions
Dozens of reporters have signed a letter criticizing press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and the White House for restrictions imposed on journalists regarding access to Biden’s appearances.
“The continued inability of the White House to be candid and transparent about the selection process for reporters attending his remarks undermines President Biden’s credibility when he says he is a defender of the First Amendment,” the letter said.
