🎙 Russia's Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s response regarding the Russian Investigative Committee opening a criminal case on terrorism financing
❓ How would you comment on the news that the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has opened a criminal case on the financing of terrorism?
💬 According to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, a criminal case has been opened under Part 4 of Article 205.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (financing of terrorism). It has been determined that over several years, resources for terrorist activities in Russia and abroad were provided through commercial entities, including Burisma Holdings, a prominent oil and gas company that operates extensively in Ukraine.
The situation is completely unacceptable. We are dealing with the transfer of millions of dollars to terrorists in order to eliminate unwanted political and public figures, as well as to inflict economic harm. Law enforcement agencies are investigating the involvement of certain government officials, public figures, and commercial entities in Western countries in this illegal activity. An investigation is currently underway, and for further details, you should contact the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation directly.
As for political assessments, we have provided them on numerous occasions. The Kiev regime and its Western backers, especially Washington, have been funding terrorist operations for years. The initiation of a criminal case in Russia under the pertinent article of the Criminal Code only confirms that Russian law enforcement agencies have substantial grounds to charge individuals involved in terrorism.

🎙 Statement by Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia at UNSC briefing on the situation around Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (15 April 2024):
▪️ Russia is grateful to the IAEA for promptly condemning attacks on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzia said at a UN Security Council meeting.
▪️ Russia has been taking every effort to avert security threats to the ZNPP Nebenzia stressed.
▪️ Moscow has never deployed heavy weapons at the nuclear power plant or launched attacks from its territory, the Russian diplomat said.
▪️ Ukraine has meanwhile intensified attacks on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant over the past months and Russia has been informing the IAEA, the ambassador highlighted.
▪️ If current strikes on the plant continue, no one can rule out a nuclear disaster of regional or even global proportions, Nebenzia emphasized.
▪️ Russia calls on the IAEA to name the source of attacks on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant. It is not a political matter but an issue of nuclear security, the ambassador insisted.

❗️ On this day nine years ago, Ukrainian writer and opposition journalist Oles Buzina was assassinated in front of hi️s home in Kiev.
He became one of the many victims of the Kiev criminal regime because he posed a threat to it – he publicly criticised and exposed the true nature of the neo-Nazi forces that had gained power as a result of the bloody coup d'état in Ukraine.
Buzina urged the then Ukrainian leadership to establish a dialogue with the inhabitants of Donbass and spoke about the need to consolidate the rights of the Russian language, which seriously irritated the post-coup officials in Kiev. He also received threats from Ukrainian radicals because his interpretation of Ukraine's historical path did not coincide with the nationalist ideology.
☝️ Such an active and firm civil position of Oles Buzina cost him his life.
A few days before his death, the journalist's personal data, including his home address, appeared on the Myrotrvorets (Peacemaker) extremist website, which contains personal information about all public figures, publicists, reporters, and journalists undesirable to the Kiev regime, a resource created literally as a practical guide for preparing terrorist acts.
Despite the fact that condemnation of the murder, condolences to the victim's family and demands for a comprehensive investigation were voiced by the #UN Secretary General, #OSCE and #US State Department officials and many civil society organisations, the perpetrators of his murder were never identified and the suspects were released.
After almost a decade, it is clear that the situation with freedom of speech in Ukraine has degraded to a critical level.
After almost a decade, it is clear that the situation with freedom of speech in Ukraine has degraded to a critical level. All media outlets in opposition to the Kiev regime are banned, and any manifestations of dissent are brutally suppressed and erased from the information space.
Unwanted journalists, primarily Russian ones, are being hunted down with all possible weapons. In the past two years alone, the Kiev regime has killed journalists Darya Dugina (Platonova), Oleg Klokov, Vladlen Tatarsky (Maxim Fomin), Rostislav Zhuravlyov and Boris Maksudov.
❌ Terrorist methods are being used to implement these criminal plans, while Ukraine's Western handlers and biased human rights organisations continue to turn a blind eye to these evil deeds.

Russian MFA Spox Maria Zakharova:
💬 When asked at today’s briefing if Antonio Guterres thinks that the #UN should know who is responsible for the strikes at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, Spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General Stephane Dujjaric said they do not have a forensic capability of reporting on these strikes, nor does the #IAEA. Nor do we have an investigative mandate, he added.
What about his conclusions on #Bucha two years ago?
At the briefing on April 7, 2022,Stephane Dujjaric said they wanted to see a transparent investigation. He said there are various mechanisms within the UN system to ensure accountability for what could be very serious crimes. Those mechanisms are currently underway, he added.
So, are these mechanisms underway or is the mandate missing?

• The high interest in voting [during the 2024 Presidential election] was overwhelming, which was confirmed by high turnout as well as the large number of journalists, public figures and representatives from compatriot organisations who observed the elections.
• The electoral process took place amid the hybrid war against Russia unleashed by the collective West. <...> Nevertheless, the Russian Foreign Ministry and its foreign missions have coped with the task. Hundreds of thousands of Russians got the chance to exercise their constitutional right.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the presentation of the Republic of Bashkortostan (April 17, 2024)
Key talking points:
💬 We have gathered today for a presentation of a region of the Russian Federation at the Foreign Ministry’s Main Administration for Service to the Diplomatic Corps. Such events have become a good tradition. We take pride in performing this function as it allows us to introduce our foreign friends to the richness of the Russian Federation.
• Situated at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, in the very heart of Eurasia, Bashkortostan is emerging as a driving force in global economic and investment endeavours, as well as in the convergence of global civilisational processes.
• Russia's Republic of Bashkortostan is home to 110 ethnicities practicing different religions and speaking different languages. Accord between them, as well as between all other ethnic groups in the Russian Federation, is built on mutual respect and a careful preservation of traditions, history, faith, way of life and customs.
• Today, Bashkortostan is among the leading industrial and agro-industrial regions of the Russian Federation.
🌐 It is encouraging to see that the republic is striving to expand its foreign trade relations. It has signed foreign trade agreements with 105 countries and prioritises cooperation with the CIS and the EAEU, as well as the countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America.
• We welcome the focus of Bashkortostan’s leadership and its business circles on expanding foreign relations and looking for reliable foreign partners.
🚣 Bashkortostan is generously endowed with natural riches. <...> Water tourism and mountain river rafting have played a significant role in shaping the person I am today. This passion of mine was born in Bashkortostan, for which I am deeply grateful to this remarkable land.

🗓 On April 19, 1783, Empress Catherine the Great signed a manifesto on the accession of Crimea, Taman Island and Kuban region into the Russian Empire.
Prince Grigory Potemkin, Governor-General of Novorossiya, played one of the key roles in the accession and development of Crimea. In June 1783, on top of Mount Aq Qaya, he personally received the oath of allegiance to Russia from the Crimean nobility and common people.
The results of the 2014 all-Crimean referendum once again confirmed the desire of Crimeans to remain part of our country and led to the long-awaited reunification of Crimea with Russia.

• During the BRICS Chairship, Russia will continue its work in three key areas: politics and security, economy and finance, humanitarian cooperation. <...> I am glad that all the members of the association collaborate in a friendly manner, striving for best results.
• The Leaders [of the BRICS countries] have taken a decision that made the Group unequivocally stronger. The association asserted itself as <...> a key link in the emerging multipolar world.
• We assume that each of the new members will bring something new <...> to the group. The rich history and cultural traditions of the newcomers speak for themselves. It enriches BRICS.
• Our "group of ten" is beginning to demonstrate solidarity at international platforms. The BRICS countries recently adopted a joint statement at the UN Environment Assembly in Nairobi. The members of the association are asserting themselves in a constructive manner on the broadest possible agenda.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview with the Sputnik, Govorit Moskva, and Komsomolskaya Pravda radio stations (April 19, 2024)
💬 Sergey Lavrov: President of Russia Vladimir Putin is constantly reminding everyone that we always prefer talks to fights and wars.
We already had some experience. After the Ukrainians realised that they had overdone it, while shelling Donbass and promoting direct genocide methods against the Russians on their own territory (as they had believed), they suggested launching talks two or three weeks after the special military operation began. We immediately agreed.<...>
At this stage, we always repeat the following <...> whenever anyone asks whether we are ready for talks. First, President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky has forbidden himself to negotiate with Russia. As Russia's President Vladimir Putin said answering this question, he should at least take the first step and repeal that order.
Secondly, they cannot be trusted. We have been trying to make ourselves trust them for too long.
☝️ And yet, we are ready to negotiate. But unlike the Istanbul story, we will not pause the military actions for the period of negotiations. The process must go on. In addition, the realities on the ground have changed significantly. These realities must be taken into account.

Operation Ukraine: Bandera's Dark Shadow — an RT Doc Film.
Synopsis: In today's Ukraine, that of the Kiev regime and Neo-Nazis, Stepan Bandera is a national hero. That was far from the case, his name loathed and crimes denounced. Yet those who came into power following the violent 2014 coup rename streets after him, organize processions in his honor, teach false historic narratives to kids in school, glorifying Nazism and banderovites.
Bandera is for certain far from a decent role model. As a young man, Bandera trained his will and ruthlessness through sadistic acts towards defenceless animals. In his early youth he joined the Ukrainian nationalists' underground terrorist organisation, the OUN, and ended up controlling the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA).
Together with his followers, Bandera collaborated with the Nazis and was responsible for the genocide of Polish and Jewish civilians during WWII.
Historian of Secret services Nikolay Dolgopolov:
The documentary explains why Bandera’s atrocities are disregarded in modern Ukraine. It also tracks the way Hitler's collaborator was elevated to the rank of national hero by the Ukrainian authorities. As well as highlights the West's involvement in supporting, supplying and financing the Banderovites throughout the decades, nourishing the rise of the modern Ukrainian Neo-Nazism.

This is believed to be one of the most brutal episodes of extermination of Jews during the Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union. It was done by the very same OUN advance units that marched along with the German Wehrmacht

🎙 Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s answer to a media question about US Congress approving financial aid to Ukraine
❓ What can you say about US Congress voting to allocate funds to Ukraine and other US clients?
💬 We have no interest whatsoever in the noise coming from the House of Representatives over approving aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, which goes hand in hand with the tug-of-war between the White House and the Republicans who, with the upcoming presidential campaign in mind, were also pushing for funding the efforts to put an end to illegal border crossings from Mexico.
One thing is clear: regardless of their party affiliation, the US ruling elites are willing to flood the Kiev regime with weapons for it to continue to fight to the last Ukrainian and to continue, among other things, to carry out terrorist attacks targeting civilian sites in Russia, to perpetrate acts of sabotage, and to kill journalists. For this purpose, Washington is resorting to the trivial theft of frozen Russian assets, for which Congress has given the green light to the Biden administration.
Interestingly, amid these internal squabbles, the White House is no longer banking on an ephemeral victory by the Kiev regime under its control. All it wants is for the Ukrainian armed forces to hold out at least until the November voting without damaging Biden’s image. Actually, this is why the agony of Zelensky and his inner circle is being dragged out, and ordinary Ukrainians are being forcibly driven to slaughter as cannon fodder. The Republicans who are lobbying the interests of the US defence industry, which will receive the bulk of allocations to Ukraine, have a stake in this as well.
Considering this, we confirm that Washington’s actions as an active party to the conflict will be rebuffed unconditionally and decisively, and its increasingly deeper plunge into the hybrid war against Russia will end up in a fiasco for the United States as scandalous and humiliating as in Vietnam and Afghanistan.

🎙 Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on the murder of Russian military correspondent Semyon Yeryomin
On April 19, Izvestia’s military correspondent Semyon Yeryomin perished in a well-aimed drone attack in the Zaporozhye Region. The attack was launched by armed units of the Kiev regime, while he was performing his professional duty.
He died from wounds inflicted by an artillery shell dropped from a Ukrainian drone in a second deliberate attempt on his life.
❗️ We regard this premeditated and coldblooded murder as yet another confirmation exposing the ugly, terrorist nature of the Zelensky regime, which has declared open season on Russian media persons, military correspondents and public figures, whose reports, comments and publications reveal the truth to the international community and furnish undeniable evidence of crimes committed by the Kiev regime’s thugs.
It was Semyon Yeryomin who published documentary evidence of the Armed Forces of Ukraine designating Russian frontline correspondents as priority targets for annihilation.
The murder of Semyon Yeryomin, this bloody crime, cannot be seen as anything other than an act of vengeance for his honest performance of his journalistic duty.
We urge the related international organisations and human rights bodies to immediately and resolutely denounce yet another cruel murder of a Russian journalist. By their habitual silence, they are encouraging the Kiev clique to new, ever more horrible terrorist attacks against media representatives, something that makes them accomplices in these crimes.
☝️ Double standards are totally unacceptable in a situation involving the media rights and efforts to create a safe environment for media professionals.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the 42nd meeting of the Council of the Heads of Constituent Entities of the Russian Federation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Moscow, April 22, 2024)
💬 Today’s agenda focuses on promoting inter-regional cooperation between constituent entities of the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China.
🔹Russian-Chinese relations of comprehensive partnership and strategic interaction continue developing in a dynamic and all-round manner and demonstrate high durability and an ability to adapt to the changing international realities.
🔹A highly important part of strategic partnership, hinges on coinciding or largely similar positions of our countries on key issues of the international agenda. Work is underway to merge the integration potentials of the EAEU and China’s Belt and Road Initiative, including in the context of implementing the initiative of President Vladimir Putin to forge a Greater Eurasian Partnership.
🔹 Russia-China trade and economic cooperation is developing actively, despite persistent attempts by the collective West states to hamper this process. Bilateral economic ties have become virtually de-dollarised. Today, national currencies account for over 90 percent of mutual payments and settlements.
🔹 Interregional cooperation traditionally remains an important component of consolidating the diverse complex of our relations. Following the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions in 2023, the Russian Federation’s territories and China’s provinces greatly expanded the volume of their exchanges.
🔹 Forty-three Russian regions and Chinese provinces and autonomous regions have signed 117 cooperation agreements in various fields. Russian municipalities have signed 313 twin city agreements with their Chinese partners.
🔹 We believe the potential of the interregional interaction is far from being exhausted. Broad opportunities for its further development open up in new international realities.
