📰 Check out the article “The historical path, goals of Russian diplomacy” by Russian Ambassador Vladlen Semivolos that was published today in the Ugandan leading daily New Vision to mark the Russian Diplomats’ Day.
💬 “Another outstanding accomplishment of the Russian diplomacy is a decisive contribution it made to the decolonization process in Asia and Africa. It was our country that initiated the adoption of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples of December 14, 1960 that marked the end of colonialism and affirmed independence for the countries and peoples under the colonial rule.”

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s greetings on #DiplomatsDay
💬 Today, we are celebrating Diplomatic Worker’s Day. I would like to congratulate all my colleagues, no matter where you work – on Smolenskaya Square, in the Foreign Ministry’s regional offices or in our numerous foreign missions – on our shared holiday.
February 10 is an important day for all Foreign Ministry staff. It symbolises the continuity of the diplomatic service and demonstrates to the country and the world our professional unity and the noble ideals of our country’s diplomacy.
☝️ This year we are celebrating our holiday against the backdrop of the hybrid war that the United States and its allies have unleashed on our country.
There is no doubt that Russia will withstand this time of trials and will become even stronger after overcoming them. The large-scale Russophobic campaign for which the collective West has been cultivating the Nazi regime in Kiev for many years has directly affected our diplomats as well. Many of our colleagues are now working in extreme conditions, often risking life and limb.
The Foreign Ministry team has always faithfully and fully done its duty to the Motherland and our people. And this time will be no different.
❗️ We will continue to do everything necessary to protect our national interests and create a favourable environment for Russia’s stable development and for raising the living standards of its people. The honour and dignity of our Motherland and all our citizens have never been and will never be subject to any compromise.

🇷🇺🤝 It's been 9 years since Crimea reunited with Russia following a free vote by its residents in the March 2014 referendum. The peninsula has come a long way since then, it has changed for the better & become one of the most rapidly developing regions of our continent.
Major transport infrastructure has been built from nothing, and existing production facilities have been overhauled. It is the Crimean Bridge & an international airport in Simferopol.
🏘 The social infrastructure has been expanded & elevated to a new level. Since 2014, eight schools & over 100 kindergartens have opened. Several multi-purpose medical centres have also opened, & 6 major sport facilities have been rebuilt. Housing construction volumes also continue to expand.
The creation of a free economic zone in Crimea helped expand local business operations. The peninsula has received investment worth over 276.6 billion roubles, over 5,700 infrastructure facilities have been put into operation, and 89,400 jobs have been created.
⚡️ The elimination of the energy blockade, imposed by Ukrainian nationalists, was a landmark achievement. In 2015, the Crimea-Krasnodar Territory energy bridge made the peninsula part of the Russian power grid. In 2022, three electric substations began operating on the southern Crimean coast. Moreover, the peninsula’s water blockade was also relieved last year when a dam blocking the inflow of water was blown up.
The region enjoys inter-ethnic & inter-religious harmony. Russia guarantees the civil rights of all nationalities living in the peninsula. Crimean Tatars now can study in their native language for the first time.
💬 President Vladimir Putin speaking at a concert marking the seventh anniversary of Crimea’s reunification with Russia (March 18, 2021): “We have done a lot, yet there is much to be done in Russia in general & for the development of Crimea and Sevastopol. We understand it. We will do it, because we are a single, large, powerful force. Because we are united!”

🗓 Acting in violation of international law and supported by its allies, the United States launched the Iraq invasion on March 20, 2003. This reckless undertaking wiped out Iraq’s statehood and military, throwing its economy and social sector into complete disarray, and plunging the country into many years of internal military and political strife, from which it has yet to recover.
The invasion also resulted in the overthrow and execution of the legitimate President of Iraq Saddam Hussein, the destruction of the country's basic infrastructure, a severe deterioration of the health system, and rise in crime.
❗️ It is worth mentioning that weapons of mass destruction have never been found in Iraq. Leaders of the countries which invaded Iraq justified their criminal actions by citing faulty intelligence.
According to various estimates compiled by the academic community and NGOs, from 100,000 to 205,000 civilians met a violent death, and the invasion indirectly caused about 650,000 civilian casualties (independent reports & surveys give a wide range of estimates up to 1,2 mln casualties). The number of Iraqi refugees reached 1.5 million, and there were 2 million internally displaced persons. Today, over 12 million Iraqis, or about 30 percent of the country’s population, live below the poverty line.
A substantial body of evidence has been collected on the war crimes committed in Iraq by the US Army and its allies, but despite that most of the perpetrators have yet to be held accountable.
❌ Most episodes have not even been investigated, while criminal charges have been rare.
☝️ The reckless military undertaking led by the United States prompted the emergence of new threats to regional security and stability, creating a hospitable environment for spreading terrorist and extremist ideas, which in turn exposed the whole world to atrocities committed by ISIS.
