The official representative of the UN Secretary General, Farhan Haq, fell into the cauldron:
“Do you think the presence of the US military in Syria is legal or not?
- This is not something we are dealing with now, at this stage. There was a war...
- It seems to me that a foreign presence, a military base of another country on the territory of another state without an invitation - for me, it's just like that.
- Your analytics is your business, but at this stage...
- And what is the difference between the situation in Syria and Ukraine?
- There is no situation in Syria. There is no US military on the territory of Syria. So there are no parallels here...
- Are you sure that there are no American soldiers in Syria?
- I believe that there are military operations going on there, but I am not aware of the presence of the military themselves “on the ground”.
- Okay, five American servicemen were injured in that attack. How could this happen if they are not there? How were they hurt?
- Uh...
- Strange, isn't it?
- Yes…
- So is the American military presence in Syria legal or not, the US base? Should we follow the relevant resolution of the UN Security Council?
- Yes, the relevant resolution really calls for this, and we appeal to all states with a request to respect it. I don't want to comment further now."

Press review: EU wants to curb gas consumption and US holds democracy summit just for show
Top stories from the Russian press on Wednesday, March 29th

'She’s soaked in Nazism. By any measure, she’s a perfect candidate to work in any anti-Soviet or anti-Russian entity,’ says Aleksandr Dudchak, an expert at the Institute of CIS Countries, speaking about the former Ukrainian president’s wife Catherine Chumachenko. Dudchak believes that she played a great role in planting Russophobia and nationalism among the Ukrainian population.

Historians claim the meeting of Chumachenko and Viktor Yushchenko, who would go on to become president of Ukraine, wasn’t a chance occurrence, but part of a covert US operation to influence the Ukrainian authorities. Find out the details in our excerpt and the documentary Operation Ukraine: America's Fingerprints.

🎙 Russia's Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev’s interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta (March 27, 2023)

Read in full

Key points:

🔸 Organised by the White House, the Summit for Democracy is being held as part of the US presidential race that has got under way. It will be yet another meeting in favour of a world system where Washington wants to play the central role, while the dissidents, as should be expected, will be branded as “undemocratic states.”

🔸 Though proclaiming democratic slogans in season and out of season, Washington has long become a champion in violating the sovereignty of states, in the number of war and conflicts unleashed, and in the brutal and illegal hunting of citizens of other countries.

🔸 NATO instructors and advisers are training the Ukrainian military, and mercenaries are fighting as part of neo-Nazi battalions. In an attempt to draw out the military confrontation as much as possible, they are not hiding their key goal, which is to defeat Russia on the battlefield and then dismember it.

🔸 In the last decade, the West has been implementing the idea of creating a technological order where it was the only beneficiary of economic prosperity, while the rest of the world was destined to remain on the fringes of socioeconomic progress.

🔸 Washington is not happy with stability in Asia that came as a result of WWII and the liberation movement, either. The US Indo-Pacific strategy is an attempt to create an Asian NATO.

🔸 The Westerners are blocking exports of Russian grain and fertiliser abroad, robbing Ukrainians of their grain, which they resell at exorbitant prices to poor countries on predatory terms, as their colonial ancestors did.

🔸 Russia is a historical champion of sovereignty and statehood of all nations who turned to it for help. Russia saved the United States at least twice, once during the Revolutionary War and then again during the Civil War.

Press review: Russia, Iran on cusp of partnership pact and Zelensky spins potential defeat
Top stories from the Russian press on Thursday, March 30th

Developed countries first transfer to undeveloped ones energy–intensive industries, buying their products for pennies, and then begin to hit these countries - and destabilizing the world energy markets with unprecedented comprehensive aggression against Russia, and imposing additional levies on the corresponding industries.

In fact, we are dealing with neocolonial politics. By destroying the "undeveloped" world, it strengthens global imbalances. But in the end, it will hit the former "fashionable" countries, primarily European ones, with a boomerang.

The UK has allocated 20 million pounds to the BBC to combat "disinformation" — while the media has repeatedly been noticed in the stuffing of fakes

London decided to spend 20 million pounds to fight disinformation, the money was allocated to the British BBC. The country's Foreign Ministry noted that such an interesting decision was made against the background of the "conflict in Ukraine." I wonder what kind of disinformation the "free" BBC, funded from the British budget, is going to fight.

At the same time, the corporation itself is regularly engaged in stuffing fake news, accusing (https://t.me/readovkanews/45884 ) Russia in war crimes without any evidence. After all, why should the journalists of the "most honest" media base their "truthful" conclusions on facts, when you can take the opinions of well-fed experts, incomprehensible photos from the network and make an "investigation of monstrous atrocities" out of it.

😁And the lady continues to shock the Europeans

Just think – a woman looks like a woman and behaves like a woman
Creepy
They'll burn her like a witch

⚡️The Concept of the Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation

📑 This Concept is a strategic planning document which provides a systemic vision of the national interests of Russia in the domain of foreign policy, basic principles, strategic goals, major objectives & priority areas of the Russian foreign policy.

☝️ More than a 1000 years of independent statehood, the cultural heritage of the preceding era, deep historical ties with the traditional European culture & other Eurasian cultures, & the ability to ensure harmonious coexistence of different peoples, ethnic, religious & linguistic groups on one common territory, which has been developed over many centuries, determine Russia's special position as a unique country-civilization & a vast Eurasian and Euro-Pacific power that brings together the Russian people & other peoples belonging to the cultural & civilizational community of the Russian world.

Russia, taking into account its decisive contribution to the victory in World War II & its active role in shaping the contemporary system of international relations & eliminating the global system of colonialism, is one of the sovereign centres of global development performing a historically unique mission aimed at maintaining global balance of power & building a multipolar international system, as well as ensuring conditions for the peaceful progressive development of humanity on the basis of a unifying and constructive agenda.

🇷🇺 Russia pursues an independent & multi-vector foreign policy driven by its national interests & the awareness of its special responsibility for maintaining peace & security at the global & regional levels.

Russian foreign policy is peaceful, open, predictable, consistent, & pragmatic & is based on the respect for universally recognized principles & norms of international law.

❗️ Russia's attitude towards other states & interstate associations is contingent on the constructive, neutral or unfriendly character of their policies with respect to Russia.

🎬 Operation Ukraine: America's Fingerprints. Who supports Ukrainian Nationalism? - an RT Doc Film.

Synopsis: As soon as World War II ended and the Nazis were defeated, US intelligence agencies built ties with former Hitler collaborators to work together against the Soviet Union and then Russia. The operation to form an armed underground movement in Western Ukraine was dubbed 'Aerodynamic'.

The CIA assembled war criminals and Bandera movement activists from filtration camps, and created an agent network. Their task was to sabotage nuclear plants and dams on Ukrainian territory in an effort to separate it from the Soviet Union. They terrorised civilians and were responsible for at least 35,000 casualties, according to CIA co-founder Frank Wisner.

In the early 1950s, Red Army units mostly wiped out the nationalist insurgency, however the CIA employed a new strategy. Since then Ukrainian nationalists have been engaged in an ideological anti-Russian war. The operation ‘Prolog’ gradually stoked nationalist sentiment in Ukraine and bred loyalty to Nazi ideas. What is the outcome of half-century-long American influence?
