О приостановке работы Совместной российско-норвежской комиссии по сотрудничеству в области ядерной и радиационной безопасности
Из брифинга официального представителя МИД России М.В.Захаровой, Москва, 3 июня 2022 года
В связи с занятой Королевством Норвегия недружественной линией в отношении Российской Федерации после начала специальной военной операции на Украине, присоединением Осло к антироссийским санкциям Евросоюза, попытками оказать экономическое и политическое давление на нашу страну, было принято решение о приостановке сотрудничества с Норвегией в сфере ядерной и радиационной безопасности.
В ходе состоявшегося 31 мая с.г. заседания профильной Комиссии норвежской стороне было объявлено о «заморозке» дальнейшей работы и реализации совместных проектов в рамках двусторонних договоренностей.

Suspending the work of the Russia-Norway Joint Commission on Nuclear and Radiation Safety
In view of the Kingdom of Norway’s unfriendly position towards the Russian Federation since the beginning of the special military operation in Ukraine, Oslo’s joining European Union’s anti-Russian sanctions, and its attempts to put economic and political pressure on our country, we decided to suspend cooperation with Norway in nuclear and radiation safety.
During a meeting of the commission on May 31, 2022, Norway was informed about the suspension of further work and joint projects within bilateral agreements.

✉️ Vladimir Putin sent greetings to participants, organizers and guests of the 25th St Petersburg International Economic Forum:
🔷 The Forum’s anniversary is taking place at a difficult time for the entire international community. The mistakes of Western countries in economic policy over many years and illegitimate sanctions have led to a wave of global inflation, the disruption of usual supply chains, and a sharp increase in poverty and food shortages.
🔷 I am confident that for Russia the 2020s will become a period when the country strengthens its economic sovereignty, which involves the accelerated development of its infrastructure and technological base, qualitative upgrades in the level of training for specialists, as well as the establishment of an independent and efficient financial system. In addition, the Russian economy will increasingly rely on private initiatives and, of course, will remain committed to transparency and broad international cooperation.

The on-going attempts to blame Russia for "weaponising" grain and food supplies are completely without merit.
❗️ Faсts: Russia is a responsible member of the global food market. It is the Western illegitimate sanctions that are in fact damaging global food security.
We are deeply concerned about a possible food crisis and are well aware of the importance of supplies of socially important commodities, including food, to the socio-economic development of countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East and the achievement of SDGs.
The illegitimate unilateral restrictions imposed by the EU, the US and their satellites remain the main obstacle to normal export relations between Russia (and Belarus) and buyers of grain and fertilizers.

Certain politicians in the West attempt to score political points & avoid responsibility by putting the blame for soaring energy prices, food security issues and even inflation on Russia 🤷♂️
Fact: Western sanctions & poor economic policies are among the root causes for the crisis.

Statement by Permanent Representative Vassily Nebenzia at UNSC open debate on women, peace, and security
Mme. Minister, we welcome you as President of the Council at the meeting on a very relevant and important issue – Women, Peace, and Security. We thank Secretary-General for his insights, and we followed closely and with much interest all statements delivered by today’s briefers.
Mme. President,
The proposed topic for discussion, "Keeping the promises: the role of regional organizations in implementing the women and peace and security agenda in the face of political turmoil and seizures of power by force" appears rather vague, but to a large extent, it can be projected on the situation in Ukraine.
This state started to deteriorate and collapse back in February 2014, when an anti-constitutional coup d’état took place in Kiev. Western states actively supported the seizure of power by radical nationalist forces and the toppling of Ukraine’s legitimate President V. Yanukovych. After this overturn, forces came to power in Kiev, who embarked on forceful Ukrainization, eradication of everything Russian, repressions against political opponents, suppression of dissident views, bans of opposition parties, and shutdown of opposition TV channels. At the same time, under Western support, they were presenting Ukraine as a “showcase of democracy and diversity of opinions”. The Kiev authorities waged a civil war on Donbas, where Russian and Russian-speaking population did not recognize the coup and stood for keeping their right to live at peace with Russia and speak their mother tongue. But the regime wanted to drown all those who dared to disagree in blood. On 2 May 2014, Ukrainian nationalists burnt alive participants of a peaceful protest in the Odessa Trade Union House, among whom there were women. On 9 May 2014, Azov battalion (part of which recently surrendered at the Azovstal steel works) shot at peaceful protesters in Mariupol. On 17 August 2014, Ukrainian fighter aircraft launched a strike on Lugansk Regional Administration building, where people died again. Then Kiev spent the next 8 years bombarding peaceful cities of Donbas and maintaining a total blockade of the region. All in all, 3300 civilians including 152 children died in Donbas over that time.
Since then, Ukraine has lived under strict censorship. Mass Media and online resources that the authorities find unwanted get shut down, independent journalists face persecution. Opposition political parties become banned. There have been dozens of cases when Ukrainian special services either detained or abducted representatives of mass media and television because of their professional activities, including women-correspondents Valentina Solovyova, Olga Yurieva, Alina Eprimyan, Evgenia Koroleva, Elizaveta Khramtsova, Natalia Kalysheva, Elena Makarova, Ksenia Kolchina, Alexandra Cherepnina, Ekaterina Voronina, Maria Knyazeva, Tamara Nersesyan, Anna Kurbatova, and Natalia Goncharova. The National Union of Journalists of Ukraine has records of dozens of attacks on media workers – no data available for 2021, 77 cases in 2020, 75 – in 2019, 86 – in 2018. In 2015, editor-in-chief of newspaper “Neteshinskiy Vestnik” Olga Moroz was killed in the Khmelnitsky Region of Ukraine. Before she was murdered, she had worked on a story on illegal forest cutting.
Lately, rights advocate and anti-fascist activist Elena Berezhnaya was arrested by the SBU. Now she is facing absurd and far-fetched treason charges. We raised this blatant case in a letter that we circulated as a UNSC document.
Before Russian special military operation started, in 2015, Ukrainian special services at least twice crushed the website of the Committee of Soldiers' Mothers of Ukraine.
Mme.President,
The population of Donbas today lives under constant indiscriminate and deliberate shelling by the UAF, who i.a. use artillery and ammunition that Kiev had received from its Western sponsors. NATO states under the lead of the US, who deliver weaponry and ammunition to Ukraine, are directly involved in the killing and maiming of
