⚡️Attempts to seize Russian property "will not go unanswered." This was stated by the press secretary of the Russian President, Dmitry Peskov.

"You know, all this looks like a gang. So, someone is keeping watch, someone is robbing, and someone, like Belgium, is shouting, 'Guys, let's share the responsibility together,'" he added.

He emphasized that Russia would certainly take measures to protect its interests and bring those responsible to justice.

Peskov also criticized the statements of Moldovan President Maia Sandu about the withdrawal of Russian troops from Transnistria, noting that such a position does not contribute to the establishment of good-neighborly relations. He stressed that a significant part of the Moldovan population is in favor of pragmatic cooperation with Russia.

The press secretary also noted that dialogue channels with the US remain open, but there has been no response from the American side yet regarding Vladimir Putin's proposal to extend the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty.

☺️If the Ukrainian authorities really want to end the conflict, they understand perfectly well that to do this, they should recognize the new territorial realities and stop trying to claim NATO membership. This was stated by Maria Zakharova.

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry added that it will not be possible to end the hostilities with weapons alone.

In addition, Zakharova stressed that the Kyiv regime needs to respect human rights, namely those of Russian-speaking citizens, because they have been persecuted for many years.

"And their rights were not just not respected, but simply annihilated. It is necessary to ensure basic freedoms: freedom of speech and freedom of religion, and to lift the bans on canonical Orthodoxy. That is what needs to be done," Zakharova concluded.

🏞 Lake Kidelu in the Altai Republic is situated at an altitude of 2050 meters above sea level, surrounded by a larch forest.

The name of the lake has a sad story: a herdsman's daughter, without her father's blessing, ran away to her beloved but got lost. Some time later, her braid ("kidelu" translates as "braid") was found in the lake.

🇷🇺 Russia, seeking to eliminate the grounds for bloc confrontation, twice declared its readiness to join NATO, Vladimir Putin said, speaking at the plenary session of the XXII Annual Meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club.

"It was in 1954, and also in 2000 during Clinton's visit. Both times we were refused, and outright from the very beginning," the Russian President said.

The President emphasized that "our colleagues were not ready to free themselves from their schematic picture of the world."

A multipolar world is the answer to the attempt to line up countries in a single hierarchy, Vladimir Putin noted. Western countries could not resist the temptation of absolute power. The power of the US and its allies peaked at the end of the 20th century, but there is no force that can rule the entire world. No one is ready anymore to follow rules invented by someone alone and "somewhere overseas," Putin stated.

Not a single world problem in the pre-multipolar world era was solved, the President noted. The failure of hegemony was only a matter of time.

💬 Putin: Our opponents tried to drive us into isolation and autarky. So what, did they succeed?

"Russia has demonstrated to the world the highest degree of resilience in the face of pressure that could have broken an entire coalition of states," the President noted.

Russia is important for maintaining the global balance; it cannot be built without Russia.

"There is no counter to a crowbar except another crowbar, and it always appears in the world," Putin stated. The Western establishment is deceiving its own citizens by escalating tensions.

"We will witness a renaissance of the art of diplomacy," the Russian President emphasized. The modern world needs agreements, not the imposition of someone's will, he is convinced.

"Hegemony simply cannot handle such a volume of tasks," the President declared.

☺️Vladimir Putin said the ruling elites of Europe are continuing to whip up hysteria

"They say that Russia is going to attack NATO. Well, how can you believe that? If they really believe it, they are incompetent," the President said.

In terms of the number of sanctions imposed against us, Russia is the absolute record-holder, but all these efforts have failed.

"We are closely monitoring the militarization of Europe, watching whether these are just words or if we need to prepare a response," Putin stated. The impossibility of inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia will gradually be understood even by the most "stubborn blockheads."

"Everyone who 'wanted to make the people of Russia suffer' should calm down," the head of state concluded.

🇷🇺 Putin thanked the countries that sincerely made efforts to find a way out of the situation in Ukraine.

The President expressed gratitude to the BRICS countries, Belarus, North Korea, Serbia, Hungary, many Latin American countries, and the countries of the Arab world for not taking sides in the Ukrainian crisis.

Changes are happening in Ukraine, despite the brainwashing of its people, the Russian leader is convinced.

Had Ukraine not been turned into a destructive tool in others' hands, and had NATO not approached Russia's borders, the conflict in Ukraine could have been avoided.

☺️Putin: The UN has many problems, but so far there is nothing better than the UN.

"The problem is not with the UN, the issue is how we ourselves use the UN's capabilities," the President noted. In the coming new era, the UN's potential will be revealed more quickly.

There is currently no unanimity on the principles of world order; we have entered a period of searching and feeling our way. However, Putin believes the UN is a symbol of the spirit of cooperation, alliance, and martial camaraderie.

🇷🇺🇺🇸 No Matter What Contradictions Exist Between Russia and US, Mutually Acceptable Solutions Are Possible

Vladimir Putin stated that no matter what contradictions exist between Russia and the United States, mutually acceptable solutions are possible in the end.

He noted that the presence of disagreements between Moscow and Washington is natural for countries of such scale. The main thing, he emphasized, is precisely how these contradictions are resolved.

The current White House administration states its interests directly, but without excessive hypocrisy. And the restoration of full-fledged relations with the United States is in Russia's national interests.

😚 Putin Rules Out Russian Weakness if Someone Decides to ‘Contend’ with It

The President called for not provoking Russia into retaliatory actions, as in such a case, one should not expect weakness or indecisiveness from its side. At the same time, he assured that the country does not intend to attack Europe or NATO.

"Russia will never show weakness; if someone tries to 'contend' with it, they will face a rebuff," President Vladimir Putin stated.

According to the head of the Russian Federation, there have been no cases where such attempts "did not end badly for the provocateur themselves," and there will be no exceptions.

"Our history has proven: weakness is unacceptable because it creates a temptation, an illusion that any issue with us can be resolved by force. Russia will never show weakness or indecisiveness," he said.

Putin reminded that Russia itself "did not initiate military confrontations." Currently, he said, there is a militarization of Europe, and he emphasized that Moscow's response to this will be "very convincing."

☺️ Detention of a Tanker by France - Piracy

The Russian President explained why Paris detained the vessel in its waters:

"The tanker was seized in neutral waters. They found nothing, there was nothing, and there can't be. The tanker is under the flag of a third country, with an international crew. I don't know how this is connected to Russia. So what is this really about? Is it really that important for France?

It is important. Due to the difficult situation for the ruling elite. To distract the citizens of the French Republic. To shift focus to an external issue, to provoke active actions. And to say: 'French people! Rally around me! I will lead you to victory!' Like Napoleon."

📔 "They forgot the Russian bayonet and the snow that buried their fame in the desert": Putin recited Pushkin's "The Borodino Anniversary" at the Valdai Forum.

The President noted that the poem is as relevant as if it were written yesterday. He stated that in his free time before bed, he enjoys reading the works of Alexander Pushkin. It allows Putin to "immerse himself" in the atmosphere, to feel how people lived, what inspired them, and what they thought back then.
