The President congratulated young officers on their graduation.
“The effectiveness of our work to improve Russia’s defensive capacity directly depends on the officer corps, that is, on you and your colleagues. You will soon take charge of military units.

🎙 Statement by Permanent Representative Vassily Nebenzia at UNSC briefing on incitement to violence in the context of the situation in and around Ukraine (June 21, 2022)
Read in full
💬 The ideology of violence and hatred stands at the core of present-day Ukrainian state policy. This ideology provoked atrocious crimes of the Kiev regime against its own people that became one of the key reasons of today’s crisis in Ukraine.
☝️ The United States and its Western allies were rather interested in this spread of Russophobia-based Ukrainian nationalism, because they perceived it as a good opportunity to sever historical ties of Russia and Ukraine, as prompted by their geopolitical considerations.
❗️ Despite ravaging primitive Russophobia and racism in Ukraine we hold nothing against the Ukrainian people, Ukrainian culture and language. The people of Ukraine is near and friendly to us. It is just that their leaders are pursuing a geopolitical agenda that is alien both to us and to Ukrainians.

⚔️ The heroic defence of the Brest Fortress began on June 22, 1941. Its garrison pinned down an entire Wehrmacht division for almost one month.
At the start of the Great Patriotic War, the fortress’ garrison comprised about 7,000 to 8,000 officers and soldiers from over 30 ethnic groups. The 45th German Infantry Division, with about 17,000 officers and soldiers, attacked the fortress. The German high command planned to seize the fortress in a few hours.
🕯 Surviving Soviet soldiers mostly conducted acts of sabotage and resisted until late July or even early August 1941. Most of the fortress’ defenders were killed in action, and some of them linked up with the partisans or reached the front line.
Today, the citadel remains a monument highlighting the indomitable willpower of those who were the first to engage Nazi invaders.

Press release on threats to global food security and Ukrainian grain supplies to international markets
❗️We have noted the increasingly frequent statements by Western representatives, echoed by UN officials, on the threat of a major food crisis due to a shortage of grain and fertilisers on international markets, allegedly provoked by Russia's actions in Ukraine.
We feel compelled to once again reiterate what the real root causes of these problems are.
👉 As far as the blockage of Ukrainian grain shipments by sea is concerned, we emphasise that Russia has never hindered the export of grain from Ukrainian Black Sea ports. In reality, safe navigation in Ukrainian territorial waters and the use of ports are currently impossible due to the high level of danger posed by mines and threat of shelling created by Kiev.
👉 It would be worth recalling that since the beginning of 2020, food and energy prices have increased significantly driven by the coronavirus pandemic, adverse climate factors and, importantly, major miscalculations in Western countries’ financial and economic policies.
🇷🇺 In turn, we reaffirm our readiness to continue to fulfil our obligations to export grain, fertilisers, energy resources and other critical products.
