⚡️ Lavrov Reveals Attempts to Sabotage "Intervision"

"I don't want to reveal a secret again, but there were rather serious attempts to sabotage this contest by exerting the most serious pressure on some participants," the Minister stated.

The head of the Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized that these attempts failed.

For instance, singer VASSY, who was supposed to represent the USA at the contest, was unable to perform in the final show. The reason was unprecedented political pressure from the Australian government.

According to the organizers, on September 20, the country's government sent an official note to the singer, who holds both American and Australian citizenship.

Commenting on the incident, Lavrov stated that the "Intervision" organizers are not chasing a political effect.

"We want a person's original purpose and identity to be respected and realized through free contact," the Minister said.

During a visit to the 'Zapad-2025' exercises, Vladimir Putin shared a memory of how he had to dodge a falling motorcycle. According to the president, the vehicle, which he had accelerated, wheelied and flipped over, but he managed to jump aside at the last moment.

Journalist Pavel Zarubin published a video of this account on his Telegram channel.

Previously, in 2017, it was reported that Putin occasionally used Kawasaki motorcycles from the Garage for Special Purposes, although he does not own any personally.

☺️The Ukrainian authorities will face deserved punishment for the attack on the resort area in the settlement of Foros on the southern coast of Crimea. This was stated by the Head of the Crimean Parliament, Vladimir Konstantinov.

He noted that the attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces was carried out on an Orthodox holiday and was targeted at peaceful civilians and children.

The previous evening, the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck a sanatorium and a school in Foros with drones. According to the latest reports, three people were killed and 16 more were injured as a result of the attack. On Monday, the Federal Medical-Biological Agency (FMBA) reported that four of the injured were in serious condition.

🧣The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces used aircraft-type drones "equipped with high-explosive charges" for the strike. The ministry emphasized that this was a "deliberate terrorist attack on civilian objects," since there are "no military facilities in Foros."

🥽Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called the incident "another act of terrorism" by Kyiv. She called on NATO and EU countries, who are looking for the source of aggression on the European continent, to "look in the mirror."
