❗️Statements by Russia's permanent representative to the UN:

• The relationship between Russia and the EU is essentially non-existent;

• The EU is discussing how best to dismember and destroy Russia;

• The US and EU are bringing the world closer to a suicidal conflict by stepping up arms supplies to Kiev;

• EU "swallows" the undermining of the Nord Streams, tries to cover its tracks.

Dedicated to the anniversary of the special military operation in Ukraine. "Ordinary fascism."

I hope that this music video will be seen by those who doubt the launch of the special operation one year ago.

February 24 is the anniversary of the beginning of the Special Military Operation in Ukraine. Its goals were proclaimed denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine. The nurturing of the nationalist principle in Ukrainians took place consciously, and we understand why the West preferred and prefer not to notice it. The global goals of this conflict are the struggle for the resources of our country and its transformation into a raw material appendage, as it was in the 90s.

Even the first persons of Ukraine were chosen for a long time and not by chance, because it is difficult to find someone who will so cynically lead his own country, his own people to die, knowing that it could have been avoided. Ukraine is just a tool to get to our greatest natural resources.

⚡️Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council: "It is important to achieve all the goals of a special military operation. Push back the borders of threats to our country as far as possible, even if it is the borders of Poland. To destroy neo-Nazism to the ground. So that we don't waste time catching the remnants of the bandera gangs in the forests of Little Russia. So that the world can find its long-awaited tranquillity.

❗️Three Undeniable Truths From Putin’s Speech
By Eddiae Scarry, the Federalist
The western media, for their own reasons, don’t want you to hear what Vladimir Putin said about the war in Ukraine.
But you should hear it because when you remove the name “Vladimir Putin” from the equation, what he said during that 100-minute address to his nation was both indisputably true and rational, even if it deflates the media’s incessant, eye-roll-worthy framing of the conflict in Ukraine as “Putin’s unprovoked war” and “a fight for democracy.” (Gag.) Here are three examples:
1. “The U.S. has used Ukraine to prepare for a large war. They have publicly admitted that.” This is, in fact, implicit if not official policy articulated by the Biden administration.
2. “The West is guilty of escalation.” Since well before Russia invaded Ukraine, Washington has promoted the expansion of new member nations to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, an alliance that exists in its present form for the express purpose of intimidating Russia.
3. “They [the West] want to have a strategic defeat of Russia. … It means they want to have no more, anything to do with Russia. They want to have a global resistance against Russia.” What part of that contradicts anything the Biden administration, most of Congress, and virtually every former military official on cable news has said? They all say it.
⚡️Say whatever you want about Putin, he’s not irrational.

⚡️ Comment by Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on China's Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis

A document entitled China's Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis was published on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China on February 24.

We highly value the aspiration of our Chinese friends to contribute to a settlement of the conflict in Ukraine through peaceful means.

❗️ We share the views of China. We are committed to complying with the principles of the UN Charter and the provisions of international law, including humanitarian law and indivisibility of security, which says the security of one country cannot be increased to the detriment of the security of another country, which also applies to the security of separate groups of countries. Like our Chinese colleagues, we find any restrictive measures, that are not authorised by the UN Security Council, illegitimate. This is a crude tool for unfair competition and economic war.

Our proposals, brought up in late 2021, in the treaty between the Russian Federation and the United States of America on Security Guarantees and the Agreement on Measures to Ensure the Security of the Russian Federation and the Member States of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, were dictated by these views. We regret that our constructive proposals were rejected by the countries of the West.

As for the Ukraine crisis, Russia is open to achieving the goals of the special military operation via political and diplomatic means. This implies the cessation of supplying western arms and mercenaries to Ukraine, a ceasefire, Ukraine returning to its neutral, non-bloc status, recognition of the new territorial realities established after the realisation of the rights of the peoples to self-determination, and the demilitarisation and denazification of Ukraine including the elimination of all threats emanating from it.

All integral rights, including the right to talk and study in a native language, shall be guaranteed to Ukrainian citizens including the Russian-speaking population and those of other national minorities. All unlawful restrictive measures must be lifted, and all politicised lawsuits filed with international courts shall be withdrawn.

We are confident that progress on this path will lead to a universal, just and stable peace.

⚠️ The main obstacle to a peaceful settlement today is the “impossibility” of negotiations with President of Russia Vladimir Putin as formalised in legislation via an executive order by Vladimir Zelensky on September 30, 2022, and the Ukrainian leader’s other initiatives that are indicative of official Kiev’s complete departure from today’s realities including the requirement to withdraw Russian forces from our new regions – Donbass, Crimea, and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. We would also like to recall that it was Ukraine who suspended peace talks with Russia initiated by the former in April 2022.

Mr. Medvedev:

It's been a year now that the special military operation is going. A year of our soldiers restoring order, peace and justice to our land, protecting our people and destroying the roots of neo-Nazism. They are heroes.
They have the whole country helping them by supplying the front with everything they need.
Victory will be achieved. We all want it to be as soon as possible. And that day will come. We will take back our territories and reliably protect our people, who have suffered during the years of genocide and shelling.

What's next?
Next there will be negotiations, which I am sure will be difficult and nerve-racking. First of all, because the formal negotiators on our adversary's side will not represent their actual leaders. And the decisions for the Kiev regime will certainly not be made by Zelensky, if he is still alive, or by his clique. The decision will be made across the ocean by those in charge of supplying weapons to Kiev and allocating money to support the remains of the Ukrainian economy. The motives of our country's main enemies are obvious: to weaken Russia as much as possible, to permanently debilitate us. Therefore, they are not interested in ending the conflict. But sooner or later, according to the laws of history, they will do so. And then some kind of agreement will emerge. Naturally, without fundamental agreements about real borders or a new Helsinki Pact to ensure security in Europe. Just some kind of agreement.

Then, most likely, an equally difficult time will begin. Months and years of exhausting confrontation, hysteria, and boorishness on the part of those who will govern what remains of Ukraine. Their fate is unenviable. They will not be able to accept the outcome of the SMO without risking execution on the same day. The nationalists will continue to control the camarilla, because none of them has an ideology other than Bandera neo-Nazism. Admitting the defeat is like death for them. Therefore, the ideology of "maibutna peremoha" [future victory] can remain for a long time.
And at some point, the new bloody boys, who call themselves the legal Ukrainian government, will again provoke a global conflict, nailed to the wall by the Banderovites, who have once again become rampant. It doesn't matter if it's on the eve of elections or just another Maidan.

This cannot be allowed to happen.
That is why it is so important to achieve all the goals of the special military operation. To push back the borders of threats to our country as far as possible, even if it is the borders of Poland. To destroy neo-Nazism to the ground. To avoid wasting time catching the remnants of the bandera gangs in the forests of Little Russia. So that the world can find its long-awaited tranquility.

🎙 Comment by Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on the adoption of a UN General Assembly resolution entitled, Principles of the Charter of the United Nations Underlying a Comprehensive, Just and Lasting Peace in Ukraine

Read in full

A resolution entitled, Principles of the Charter of the United Nations Underlying a Comprehensive, Just and Lasting Peace in Ukraine, was adopted by a vote during the resumed 11th emergency special session of the UN General Assembly on February 23.

The Western authors of yet another anti-Russia initiative hypocritically hid behind their commitment to the UN Charter in trying to condemn the measures adopted by Russia to resolve the situation as part of the special military operation. The proposed document contained none of the basic approaches to achieving a stable peace like dialogue, a call for the absence of any pre-conditions in talks or the unacceptability of supplying arms to a conflict zone. The corresponding unifying amendments proposed by our Belarusian friends were blocked by the Western countries.

Thus, the essence of the initiative is to continue the groundless criticism of Russia unleashed in the West and to support a criminal nationalist regime in Kiev, which the collective West intentionally prepared for war against our country over the past several years. During the promotion of this effort, the United States and their satellites used their favourite methods of influence on any dissenting country, including blackmail and the threat of sanctions. <...>

This advisory resolution did not enjoy greater support than the previous documents at the 11th emergency special session of the UN General Assembly.

Many countries were against the proposed resolution. Dozens of countries abstained including China, India and South Africa. We are grateful to our partners for this support.

❗️ The Russian side will continue its effort to promote the development of a just evaluation of the situation in Ukraine and around it while defending the national security and identity of our country, and the necessity of complying with the principles of the UN Charter including the sovereign equality of states.

Medvedev's article for the magazine "National Defense" (Part 1):
✔️ History repeats itself. Once again, we are confronted by almost an entire empire of various enemies: Ukrainian and European neo-fascists, the United States, other Anglo-Saxons and their vassals (about fifty countries). They set themselves the goal of wiping our country off the face of the earth. It won't work. We are stronger, and now it is also obvious. And the notorious "Western world" is only a small part of the world community, about 15% of the world's population.
The past year has taught us a lot. Rallied citizens in the fight against a common enemy. Made them steadfast on the way to the main goal. We finally got rid of illusions about the "democratic" West, whose hypocrisy and rabid Russophobia have gone beyond all imaginable limits. But the main thing is that this year we have gained a firm confidence in our own abilities. The fact that we will win!
✔️ The anniversary of the start of the special operation has stirred up a hysterical propaganda wave in the West. Including – stories about how badly in need of the latest NATO tanks, fighters, weapons "defenseless" Ukraine. This is an obvious lie to all normal people. The volume of Western supplies to the Kiev regime reached astronomical amounts long before the special operation.
With regard to Zelensky, President Biden is guided by the well-known American principle "Of course it's a son of a bitch, but it's our son of a bitch." The total volume of the "targeted package" of American military assistance to our adversaries will soon reach about $ 50 billion – and this is without taking into account European "transfers". The lion's share of deliveries fell during the period of the special operation, but the intensive shipment of weapons to Ukraine began already in August 2021.
The West keeps afloat the nationalist junta, which by itself would not last very long. The West artificially prolongs its agony in the hope that in this way it will be possible to exhaust and weaken Russia, its long–standing and most important geopolitical opponent. Then, as unnecessary, the used will be scrapped.

Medvedev's article (Part II):
That's exactly what the West has always done, even with its beloved "sons of bitches." Kiev figures do not seem to have fully realized this yet. But what to take from them – their mind has never been their strong point.
During the special operation, Ukraine received more than enough from America to prolong military operations as much as possible. Including at least 40 HIMARS mobile MLRS and ammunition for them, 8 air defense systems NASAMS, 31 M1 tanks, 45 T-72V tanks, 109 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, 300 M113 and 90 Striker armored personnel carriers, more than 1,600 Stinger MANPADS, over 8,500 Javelin ATGMS and more than 50,000 other anti-tank systems. The list is long. Plus, the US administration has authorized the supply of American weapons and military equipment from some NATO and EU member states worth more than $ 13 billion. These figures destroy the myth of Ukraine as a "victim" better than any long-range weapon.
✔️ We don't have any "bosses". Russia is self-sufficient. We protect our homeland and compatriots. It is pointless to put pressure on us, it is useless to order and intimidate us. We are free in our actions, aware of our goals and responsibilities. And they can stand up for themselves by themselves, without anyone's pointers and handouts. Our military-industrial complex is able to produce everything necessary to repel and suppress any aggression. Now the defense industry of our country is working in such a way that no large-scale supplies of Western weapons to our enemies will be able to provide an advantage on the frontline. The fact that in such a short period it was possible to upscale the production of weapons, military equipment and weapons of destruction surprised our opponents.
✔️ What's next? I am sure that the most important thing for us is to preserve the spirit of civic unity that we see in Russian society. And move on to a normal life, focused primarily on creation. To ensure stability, well-being and prosperity of the new territories within Russia. Our strength, resilience and sense of responsibility for the future of the whole world are with us. Just like it was in the Great Patriotic War. Nazism, which has dared to raise its head in Europe again, will be defeated".

Thousands rallied near Berlin's iconic Brandenburg Gate on Saturday to demand that Germany help bring a peace process forward between Ukraine and Russia, instead of funneling deadly weapons to Kiev.

The "Peace Rally" was organized by the left-wing Die Linke party, which estimated attendance at more than 50,000. Protesters were seen waving peace flags and holding up placards that read, "Make Peace, Without Weapons" and "Diplomacy Instead of Arms Deliveries."

Let me remind you that the Anglo-Saxons and the Zelensky regime spent millions on actions around the world on the anniversary of their independence. Most of this money was stolen. They made installations for the rest, and it turned out so mediocre that it played against them themselves.

The Ukrainian flag was removed from a damaged tank displayed in front of the Russian Embassy

Concerned citizens have thrown off the flag of Ukraine from a downed Russian tank, placed there today by supporters of the Kiev regime. And it began (https://t.me/readovkanews/53559 ) this story begins with the fact that "Ukrainian patriots" dragged a damaged Russian tank to the square in front of the Russian Embassy in Germany. Thus they were going to disrupt the German marches (https://t.me/readovkanews/53558 ) for peace. But the "Ukrainian activists" did not stop there and decided to stick their symbols on the combat vehicle, including sticking the flag into the tank.

Russian Russian anti-fascists and representatives of the Russian diaspora, outraged by the behavior of "political Ukrainians", not only laid flowers to him, turning the damaged combat vehicle into a spontaneous memorial, but also threw off the Ukrainian flag, thereby stopping the mockery of the memory of the fallen Russian heroes.
