⭕️Read extracts from the statement of Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE Maxim Buyakevich “On ongoing crimes by Ukraine against civilian population with the support of Western alliance of OSCE participating States”, (meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council, 23 June 2022):
Situation in 🇺🇦Ukraine is most vivid illustration of the crisis of confidence that has matured in recent years in the all-European space.
Today neo-Nazism has raised its head in #OSCE space - most egregious example is #Ukraine, where neo-Nazi groups from Ukrainian armed formations, using weapons supplied by NATO countries, continue to attack civilians
Defenders of #Donbass republics are fighting for right to live safely in their homeland, to preserve & develop their culture, language and traditions. The task of completely liberating these territories from occupying 🇺🇦 Ukrainian armed formations will certainly be completed
❗️ Blatant double standards used by "collective West" in support of 🇺🇦 Kiev regime only convince people of Donbass and citizens of all Russia of fairness & rightness of the case to protect #DPR and #LPR from Ukrainian aggression
❌Steps taken by Kiev regime, which can be described as “cultural and linguistic genocide”, clearly do not fit into “European values”

Today we circulated as an official document of the UN Security Council and General Assembly a letter with examples of hate speech of Ukrainian officials and politicians.
Here is a link to this document.
We did it as a follow up to our statement in the UN SC on 21 June.
Hopefully this document will open the eyes of our UN colleagues and help them realize whom are we dealing with in reality in Ukraine today

🎙 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova on political repression against dissenters is intensifying in Ukraine:
Kiev is going to introduce the practice of mass requisitioning Ukrainian enterprises from owners who, by the arbitrary decision of the authorities, are recognised as pro-Russia sympathisers. What kind of law, democracy or liberalism are we talking about?
❗️ The policy of forced Ukrainisation and persecution of everything that is Russian continues unabated.
On June 19, the Verkhovna Rada approved draft laws that effectively ban Russian music from being played in the streets of Ukrainian cities, music halls, stadiums and on radio and television.
Books, newspapers and magazines from Russia and Belarus have been banned in Ukraine and cannot be brought in. Russian-speaking writers are removed from world literature courses.
A native of Odessa, Anna Akhmatova wrote, “It’s not scary to die by a bullet, not painful to lose home, and we will protect you, Russian speech, the great Russian word.”

Vladimir Putin spoke at a BRICS+ meeting involving the leaders of several invited countries
🔸The represented countries support a truly democratic multipolar order, equality, justice and respect.
🔸Cooperation with partners sharing these values has become extremely relevant in the current context of unbalanced international relations.
🔸Attempts to deter the development of countries that are not ready to follow the Western rules, the reckless imposition of sanctions and the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic have only exacerbated the crises in the global economy.
🔸The inflation hike was caused by G7 countries' irresponsible macroeconomic policy, uncontrolled money creation and accumulated unsecured debts.
🔸The food market is disrupted: the soaring cost of essential agricultural commodities has hit developing countries harder than the West.
🔸Russia is an important and responsible participant of the global food market that is supplying humanitarian aid to the countries in need.

A Russian representative in a dialogue with the UN Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression at the UN HRC:
🔹The topic of Ms. Khan's report appears to be quite relevant. This is confirmed, among other things, by the massive anti-Russian disinformation campaign unleashed by the Western countries and the "digital giants", as well as their adoption of unilateral restrictive measures.
🔹 The purpose of this Western sanctions policy is exclusion of the Russian media from the information field, the silencing of "undesirable" opinions that do not fit into the "mainstream narrative".
🔹 We regret that Ms. Khan is defiantly trying to ignore the information war declared in the West on everything Russian, as well as the “fake-spewing conveyor belt” created to vilify our country, the Russian people and culture. Moreover, the Special Rapporteur assumes the function of determining which information is true and which is false.

🔹 We are forced to use the right of reply regarding the speech of the EU delegation on behalf of a group of States that have proclaimed themselves to be the standards in the human rights and appropriated the right to judge others for conducting independent foreign and domestic policy.
🔹 Today, European countries and their “Big Brothers” overseas are overwhelmed by Russophobia, which is becoming increasingly ugly. Among the most common violations are refusals to provide educational, medical and other services, arrests and seizure of property, intimidation into public repentance, suspension from sports, music festivals and competitions, attacks, threats and insults.
🔹 I would like to ask the colleagues from the "collective West", who gave you the right to judge and label others? Wouldn't it be better to look at your own reflection first? Although, apparently, the feeling of shame is unknown to you to begin with.

❗️ Russian Defence Ministry:
On June 27, in the city of Kremenchug (Poltava region), Russian Aerospace Forces launched a high-precision air attack at the hangars with armament and munitions delivered by the USA and European countries, located at the Kremenchug road machinery plant.
High-precision attack has resulted in the neutralisation of west-manufactured armament and munitions concentrated at the storage area for being delivered to Ukrainian group of troops in Donbass.
Detonation of the munitions in storage caused a fire in a non-functioning shopping mall next to the facilities of the plant.

Your daily #Fakes pushed by the Western media
❌ The Russian military indiscriminately targeted a shopping center in Kremenchug on June 27.
✅ The actual target was the “Kredmash” plant, storing armaments & munitions. Now confirmed by security camera footage from a nearby “Maisky Sad” park.
While the G7 Summit takes place in Germany, it’s no wonder that the mainstream media went on a rampage to “demonize” Russia and its military.
How else would someone justify the Western fight “to the last Ukrainian”?
This is another example of why it’s always important to get the full story from different sources first - before jumping to conclusions.

🇷🇺🇺🇳 From the Statement by First Deputy Permanent Representative Dmitry Polyanskiy at UNSC briefing on maintenance of peace and security in Ukraine
💬 The Security Council should not turn into a platform where President Zelensky, though remotely, can angle for more NATO weapons. This erodes the authority of the Council as a body responsible for collective decision-making in the interests of maintenance of international peace and security. The Ukrainian side, supported by our Western colleagues, seeks to undermine this authority and use UNSC members as audience at its performances.
<...>
Ukrainians and their Western sponsors realized quickly that in a digital era, the developments on the ground do not matter.
But at some point everything went off the rails. On social media, there appeared more evidence and more reasons to blame Ukrainian soldiers and neo-Nazis for committing atrocities and war crimes.

📆 Every June 29, Russia marks #Partisans and #Resistance Fighters Day.
🔻 Over one million Soviet partisans and resistance fighters from all ages and ways of life made an invaluable contribution to routing the Nazis. In 1941-1944, a real guerilla war flared up on the German-occupied territories. Saboteur teams made life unbearable for the enemy and its collaborators. They disrupted lines of communication, wiped out entire garrisons, thwarted preparations for offensives, raided various areas far behind enemy lines and provided the Soviet high command with valuable intelligence data.
Resistance fighters destroyed 42,000 vehicles, 350,000 rail carriages, cisterns and platforms, disabled 6,000 tanks and 1,100 aircraft. They also neutralized over 600,000 enemy officers and soldiers and captured 50,000 more.
🎖 More than 300,000 people were decorated for bravery during the war and received various other awards, and 249 partisans became Heroes of the Soviet Union.

⚡️ Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Ukrainian Armed Forces’ strikes on residential areas of Belgorod and Kursk.
Video with ENG subs
💬 The goal of the Kiev regime is to strike the residential areas of cities with unguided weapons. This is far from the first time something similar has happened.
We understand that these actions of the regime in Kiev were not only agreed upon with its western superintendents but were also most likely prompted by them. They do this to force us into striking back in a similar fashion so they can carry on hyping their anti-Russian hysteria.
We have abstained from making such steps, but we will be monitoring these developments very carefully. Those who have been acting in this fashion should be aware that they will have to pay a hefty price should these provocations continue.
