🇷🇺💬 Russia does not chase after anyone or beg for the lifting of sanctions imposed against it. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in an interview.

Lavrov also noted that even if American sanctions were lifted, Russia must avoid dependence in critical spheres.

Earlier, President Vladimir Putin emphasized that no matter how the situation unfolds, Russia’s competitors will always seek to contain the country. This, in turn, means they will attempt to introduce new restrictions.

In this context, the president stressed the importance of assuming that even if sanctions are eased, they will "find other ways to pressure us, trying to throw a spanner in the works."

‼️ Europe is currently experiencing a profound moral, ideological, and values crisis, stated Valentina Matviyenko, Chairperson of the Russian Federation Council.

"EU officials have reached the pinnacle of shamelessness and cynicism by brazenly demanding, under the guise of Euro-dictatorship, that leaders of sovereign states refrain from attending the Victory Parade in Moscow. This is a desecration of the memory of millions who sacrificed their lives to liberate Europe and the world from the fascist plague," she said during a plenary session.

⚔️ The Federation Council of Russia has called on global parliaments to combat the falsification of World War II history and the rehabilitation or glorification of Nazism.

Senators condemned support for neo-Nazi regimes, particularly in Ukraine, and stressed the need to hold accountable those who insult the memory of liberator soldiers.

📌 In their address to world parliaments, it was emphasized that safeguarding historical truth requires joint efforts.

🇷🇺 Koyashskoye Pink Lake in Crimea

🩷 The reason for this fantastical coloration lies in the microorganisms inhabiting the lake, specifically the algae Dunaliella salina and the brine shrimp Artemia salina.

The intensity of the color depends on the season: in spring, the water is clear, but with the onset of summer heat, as the lake shallows and the sun evaporates moisture, the concentration of salt and pigments peaks, transforming Koyashskoye into a "Martian" landscape.

The lake, which is about 4 km long and up to 2 km wide, has a depth of just one meter. Its shores are framed by snow-white salt crystals, creating a striking contrast with the pink water.

This fragile ecosystem is protected, as the nature reserve safeguards not only the lake but also the surrounding steppes with rare plants and bird nesting sites.

🐻 Bear Peeked into a Cafeteria in Kamchatka

In the village of Malki, Kamchatka, a brown bear approached a local cafeteria and knocked on the window several times—apparently drawn by the aroma of shchi —and decided to join the lunch break. However, the furry gourmet failed to get inside.

Judging by the calm reaction of locals, the clubfooted visitor has dropped by for a snack more than once.

‼️ Local authorities, however, do not share the witnesses’ relaxed attitude toward this unusual visit. They previously urged residents and visitors to exercise caution, as bears are emerging from winter hibernation and may be particularly dangerous.
