#NoStatuteOfLimitations

On March 16, 1968, soldiers of the United States Army carried out a massacre in the rural community of My Lai (Sơn Mỹ) in Vietnam’s Quang Ngai Province, carrying out one of the most horrific massacres of civilians during the Vietnam War.

American soldiers brutally killed more than 500 civilians, including 173 children and 182 women (17 of them pregnant).

On the morning of March 16, Charlie Company entered the village as part of a search-and-destroy mission. They had been instructed to treat anyone remaining in the area as Viet Cong fighters. Despite facing no resistance, US troops opened fire on unarmed villagers, including women and children. As they advanced, they threw grenades into huts, tortured people, and executed them on the spot. One notorious episode involved Lt William Calley, who ordered dozens of villagers to be herded into an irrigation ditch and machine-gunned.

Initially, Washington presented the events as a "major victory", claiming hundreds of enemy combatants killed. Testimonies from witnesses to these atrocities were ignored for a long time while the American military machine attempted to conceal its crimes in Vietnam.

Only in November 1969 did journalist Seymour Hersh publish his investigation, while photographs taken by Army photographer Ronald L. Haeberle revealed the truth to the world. The images showed murdered civilians — peasants, women, and children with gunshot wounds to the head, mutilated bodies — while nearby American soldiers laughed and set homes on fire.

An international scandal erupted. Yet only one person was ultimately convicted — Lt William Calley. He was sentenced to life imprisonment but was pardoned after just three and a half years of house arrest. He lived to the age of 80, dying in April 2024 in the state of Florida.

❗️ My Lai massacre remains a grim reminder of how the United States wages its wars. The mass killings of civilians perpetrated by US forces abroad often goes unnoticed — or is dismissed as "collateral damage"...

⚡️ Statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry regarding the escalation of the crisis in the Middle East

❗️ Through their treacherous and unprovoked attack on Iran, the United States and Israel have unleashed an unprecedented spiral of violence in the Middle East, with no end in sight.

The toll of victims of the American-Israeli aggression runs into the hundreds and thousands, with irreparable damage inflicted upon civilian infrastructure. Neighbouring countries are also suffering from retaliatory Iranian strikes, while shipping along the vital global economic route through the Strait of Hormuz has been paralysed.

Once a stable and prosperous region, the Persian Gulf is rapidly descending into a maelstrom of chaos and uncertainty. The economic repercussions of the reckless venture initiated by Washington and Tel Aviv are being felt ever more acutely far beyond the conflict zone – indeed, on a global scale.

Meanwhile, instead of seeking paths to de-escalation and a return to negotiations, there is a further intensification of mutual hostility, with increasingly lethal and destructive strikes being carried out.

☝️ We reiterate our resolute call to all parties for an immediate cessation of hostilities and a shift of the situation onto a political and diplomatic track.

Above all, attacks on civilian facilities and infrastructure must cease, and the death and suffering of innocent populations – both in the Arab states of the Persian Gulf and in Iran – must be halted.

As before, the Russian Federation stands ready, within the scope of its available capabilities, to contribute to a long-term and sustainable resolution of the conflict.

1️⃣2️⃣ years ago, on March 16, 2014, the people of Crimea made their choice to reunite with their historical homeland – Russia.

🇷🇺Since then, the peninsula has been undergoing transformation and development. New infrastructure, cultural landmarks, and public spaces have appeared across the region.

☦️ One of the most remarkable projects is New Chersonesos, a historical and archaeological park and museum-temple complex opened in the summer of 2024 in Sevastopol.

🌊Enjoy the breathtaking views of Crimea.

🇷🇺🇰🇪 On March 16, Foreign Minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov held talks in Moscow with Prime Cabinet Secretary, Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs of Kenya Musalia Mudavadi.

The Sides held a substantive discussion on the current state and prospects for further development of friendly Russia-Kenya relations.

Moscow and Nairobi reaffirmed their commitment to advancing political dialogue and expanding mutually beneficial cooperation in trade and economic ties, culture, education, science, humanitarian exchanges and other areas.

The importance of injecting new momentum into joint efforts aimed at improving the bilateral legal framework was underscored, including the signing of an agreement on establishing the Russia-Kenya Intergovernmental Commission on Economic Cooperation.

While reviewing current international and regional issues, the Parties noted the convergence of Russia’s and Kenya’s principled positions in support of a polycentric world order and the need to uphold fairness and equality in international affairs.

🤝 Both Sides expressed interest in further deepening cooperation within the UN and other multilateral forums.

They also exchanged views on conflict resolution in Africa, the situation around Ukraine, as well as developments in the Middle East.

***

💬 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's opening remarks during his talks with Musalia Mudavadi:

I recall with great pleasure my visit to Nairobi in May 2023. I am glad to welcome your delegation today on a return visit.

Russia and Kenya share a long history of friendship, cooperation, mutual understanding and support. These traditions help us develop our relations across all areas at this very important stage of global development.

I am confident that your visit and the talks in Moscow will help inject new momentum into our political dialogue and outline avenues for further expanding trade and economic cooperation. Humanitarian, cultural and educational exchanges have also traditionally been important pillars of our partnership.

Naturally, we will also have a detailed discussion of our interaction on the international stage – we traditionally maintain close cooperation externally as well – including regional policy issues, the activities of the African Union and subregional organisations where Kenya plays a very important role, as well as cooperation within the UN. Kenya serves as Africa’s UN hub, and we actively support your country in this role.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s statement and answers to media questions at a joint news conference following talks with Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs of the Republic of Kenya Musalia Mudavadi (Moscow, March 16, 2026)

Key points:

• I have held substantive and beneficial talks with my Kenyan counterpart Musalia Mudavadi. <...> We reaffirmed mutual commitment to promoting political dialogue and spoke in favour of expanding practical bilateral projects.

#RussiaKenya: We highlighted energy (including nuclear energy), telecommunications, agriculture, and geological exploration and mining, as well as advanced technologies, including space exploration, as promising areas of cooperation.

• We reiterated our support for enhancing Africa’s role in international affairs, including in decision-making on key items on the global agenda, including within the UN and its Security Council.

• We shared our assessments of the state of affairs in the Middle East in connection with the armed aggression of the United States and Israel against Iran, and the deep crisis besetting Palestine. There is no sign of improvement in sight.

• We also stressed the importance of an immediate cessation of any actions in the confrontation between the United States and Israel against Iran that harm civilians and civilian infrastructure.

***

From the Q&A session:

Question: Moscow is ready and willing to act as a mediator to achieve peaceful resolution of the conflict in the Middle East. What risks to global security could hostilities in this region pose if they are not halted? How might they affect the stability of global energy markets?

💬 Sergey Lavrov
: The plotters of the strikes on the Islamic Republic of Iran (as was the case in June 2025, the strikes were launched during talks) assumed they would achieve their objective of making that country completely subservient to them within 24 or even fewer hours. They now know how mistaken they were.

Of course, Iran is defending itself. It is responding to aggression by striking military infrastructure in the region that belongs to the countries that attacked it. Unfortunately, the GCC countries are also affected as a result.

We call for an end to hostilities and for a return to the negotiating table, if talks have any credibility left.

<...>

I’d be hard pressed to say anything definitive about the prospects of this conflict. Recently, US President Donald Trump stated that Iran had been defeated. On the same day, a representative of the Israel Defence Forces said: “We have thousands of targets ahead. We are ready, with plans through at least the Jewish holiday of Passover, about three weeks from now.”

So, it’s hard to tell what this crisis may end with if the sides don’t stop it immediately, do not come to their senses, and do not start working on agreements that, this time, will not be thwarted by anyone.

❗️ There’s need for guarantees. I fully understand that Iran needs them.

⚡️ Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik:

💬 At least 239 civilians were killed or injured, including 6 minors, over the past week as a result of attacks by Ukrainian militants. This marks the highest weekly number of civilian casualties since the beginning of 2026.

Over the past seven days, Ukrainian militants carried out a series of deliberate shelling and acts of terrorism resulting in significant civilian casualties. The highest number of affected civilians was recorded in the Bryansk, Belgorod, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, as well as the DPR. In these areas, civilian infrastructure and the population came under drone, missile and artillery strikes launched by Kiev’s armed formations.

Between March 9-15, 239 civilians were affected by Ukrainian attacks: 202 were injured, including 6 children, and 37 were killed. Ukrainian forces fired at least 3,347 munitions at civilian targets on Russian territory.

📅 Ровно 75 лет назад Украинская повстанческая армия (УПА), известная своим тесным сотрудничеством с нацистской Германией в годы Второй мировой войны, публично призвала США помочь ей в борьбе с Советским Союзом. Любопытно, что к этому моменту Запад уже несколько лет помогал украинским националистам в рамках операции «Аэродинамик».

Осуществляемые с 1948 года ЦРУ и МИ-6 совместно со спецслужбами ФРГ и Италии (в рядах которых западные «союзники» оставили немало нацистских и фашистских деятелей) действия имели своей целью погрузить Украину в хаос кровавого террора путём формирования, снабжения и расширения антисоветского украинского националистического подполья. Цель операции — создание зоны нестабильности, отвлечение ресурсов, в конечном счёте ослабление влияния СССР на мировой арене. Как и сегодня, украинские националисты использовались в качестве марионеток и «расходного материала» для достижения Западом своих геополитических целей.

Ещё до капитуляции нацистской Германии западные спецслужбы начали подготовку к будущему противостоянию с СССР, помогали преступникам из числа членов СС, СД, коллаборантов избежать заслуженного наказания, вербовали и использовали их в своих целях.

Не стали исключением и боевики ОУН-УПА, которых активно привлекали и использовали против Советского Союза, невзирая на их многочисленные военные преступления и человеконенавистническую идеологию.

☝️ В итоге операция «Аэродинамик» провалилась, УПА была окончательно разгромлена, а большая часть лидеров вооружённого националистического подполья была либо ликвидирована, либо арестована.

Однако некоторым идеологам коллаборантов удалось скрыться на Западе и избежать справедливого возмездия. Именно они в течение нескольких десятилетий развивали националистическую идеологию и переписывали историю Второй мировой войны. В их «трудах» военные преступления украинских пособников нацистов отрицались либо оправдывались. Например, Ярослав Стецько, военный преступник и сподвижник Бандеры, создал в Мюнхене в 1946 году при поддержке западных спецслужб Антибольшевистский блок наций (АБН), который в 1960-е годы под бдительным оком американских патронов влился во Всемирную антикоммунистическую лигу.

В результате уже в наше время пришедшим к власти на Украине при активном участии Запада путём антиконституционного переворота неонацистам не нужно было чего-либо придумывать. Они фактически просто взяли наработки тех преступников ОУН-УПА, кого при активном участии западных кураторов возвели в новый украинский пантеон.

✍️ Из статьи заместителя председателя Совета Безопасности России Д.А.Медведева «Как англосаксы вскормили украинский национализм после Второй мировой войны» (24 декабря 2025 года):

Украинский национализм — рукотворный политический проект, получивший возможность для раскрытия своего античеловеческого потенциала в XX веке благодаря адресной массовой поддержке со стороны США и Великобритании, которые после разгрома Третьего рейха нуждались в получении мощного русофобского тарана для опосредованной войны с Советским Союзом.

Что в итоге получил народ современной Украины от англосаксов? Он стал «пушечным мясом» европейской цивилизации, заложником культа смерти в форме фейкового «голодомора», проводником глорификации садизма и возвеличивания военных преступников.


❗️Сегодня, как и 75 лет назад, страны «коллективного Запада», прежде всего, европейские государства оказывают украинским нацистам военную и финансовую помощь, используя их в качестве инструмента для реализации своих геополитических амбиций.
