⚡ Foreign Ministry Statement on Kiev regime’s latest barbaric attack on Russian civilians
In the early hours of March 11, the neo-Nazi Kiev junta once again made its cowardly terrorist nature clear to everyone by attacking Russian regions, including Moscow and the Moscow Region, with a barrage of UAVs carrying projectiles.
According to the Defence Ministry, duty air defence facilities downed 337 drones, including 126 over the Kursk Region, 91 over the Moscow Region, and 38 over the Bryansk Region, as well as 25 over the Belgorod Region, and 22 over the Ryazan Region. Unfortunately, multiple casualties, including children, were reported.
The Investigative Committee of Russia has swiftly launched an investigation into this crime. The circumstances of the attack are being established. All those involved and responsible for this and other terrorist attacks on our land will be held accountable.
The shelling of population centres in many Russian regions, as well as ruthless and indiscriminate killings of civilians, are indicative of the agony of the neo-Nazi Zelensky-led regime, which has bogged down in terrorism, lawlessness, corruption, and cynicism. Overcome by impotent rage, and in an effort to please its Western handlers, the regime strives to kill and maim as many innocent people as it can.
Without a doubt, this drone attack was planned in advance and timed to coincide with today’ s US-Ukraine contacts on conflict resolution held in Saudi Arabia. It was also a message to new OSCE Secretary General Feridun Sinirlioglu, now in Moscow on a working visit. Using these barbaric methods, the Kiev clique, which is suffering daily defeats on the battlefield, is trying to prove its ability to negotiate “from a position of strength.”
The Zelensky regime, which has lost its grip on reality, has clearly showed a glaring lack of political will for achieving peace and negotiated settlement of the conflict. It remains obsessed with the idea to defeat Russia, widely using cynical methods of terror and seeking to draw its allies into its aggressive actions.
❗️ Clearly, the blame for this attack lies with the countries that continue to stubbornly and irresponsibly flood Ukraine’ s ruling clique with lethal weapons, thereby enabling its bloody acts.
The anti-humane Kiev regime has made clear as day its neo-Nazi and terrorist nature, impotence, and inability to achieve and honour agreements. It has long deserved to be unambiguously and resolutely denounced by all conscientious governments and international entities. Further supporting it is tantamount to being complicit in crimes committed by the Zelensky-led junta.

🗓️ On March 10, the Scientific Council under the Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation gathered for a meeting with invited experts in attendance.
In his opening remarks, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov laid out his assessment of the international situation. In particular, the Minister noted that the continuous process for forming a multipolar international order has firmly established itself as the core long-term trend. This kind of international order must be based on compliance by all participating countries with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter in their entirety and interrelation.
Amid highly turbulent international environment and the Ukraine crisis created and fueled by anti-Russia circles in the West, the key areas of Russia’s foreign policy include ensuring strong guarantees of the country’s security against threats emanating from the West and further strengthening partner-like, equal and mutually beneficial ties with the countries from the Global South and the Global East, as well as with the countries in Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region that are fully aware of the futility of attempts to contain Russia and are in favour of building relations with Russia based on the balance of interests.
The participants underscored the paramount importance of implementing strategic initiatives for comprehensive development of the Eurasian space, ensuring human rights, including the rights of ethnic minorities guaranteed by the UN Charter and international conventions, and eliminating inhumane practices and forms of neo-colonialism from international politics.
As part of the engaged discussion, the participants focused on implementing foreign policy goals amid new geopolitical environment and reviewed a number of specific proposals to improve effectiveness of the efforts to protect national interests internationally and to promote the priorities included in the Foreign Policy Concept of the Russian Federation.
🤝 The participants emphasised the importance of continuing close interaction between the Foreign Ministry and Russia’s expert and academic community in the interest of providing high-quality information and analytical support to Russia’s foreign policy.

❗ Regrettably, we must acknowledge that in Geneva, the issue of violations of international humanitarian law by Ukrainian armed forces is methodically and deliberately silenced by the "collective West" and the international mechanisms under their influence.
🤐 You will not hear about the crimes of the Ukrainian authorities and military from Western representatives or their associates in the UN Human Rights Council (HRC) and other international organizations, nor from the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, nor from international humanitarian agencies and organizations. All of them prefer to ignore the suffering of the people of Donbass, the new Russian regions, as well as the Kursk, Belgorod, and other regions of Russia. Clearly, they have no interest in publicly exposing and objectively assessing such actions by the Kiev regime, which can be qualified as war crimes and crimes against humanity.
📂 The stance taken by these specialized international bodies is inexplicable, given that our Permanent Mission regularly informs the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and his Office, as well as the HRC Special Procedures, about detailed evidence of crimes committed by Ukrainian armed forces against civilians. We consistently send extensive reports to the Office, amounting to hundreds of pages, documenting inhumane acts committed by Ukrainian forces, accompanied by shocking photographic evidence.
❌ However, an appropriate response from international mechanisms remains absent.
🔥 As a result of this blatant indifference, the Kiev regime continues to demonstrate inhumane disregard for the lives of civilians and openly violates international law.
👉 We consistently convey to UN member states the dangers of continued Western support for Ukraine and its so-called "benefactors" at the Conference on Disarmament, the primary negotiation platform for arms control, disarmament, and non-proliferation, as well as at meetings on the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons. This work is giving results. Many countries are beginning to realize who is truly responsible for war crimes against civilians and what the real factors and reasons were that forced Russia to begin its special military operation.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview to the 'New Regions of Russia' magazine (March 10, 2025)
Read in full
❓ Question: Which general international and foreign political conclusions – both positive and negative – can Russia draw after three years of the special military operation? Did we get the very “experience, the son of difficult errors,” in the words of the classic?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: The last three years became the “moment of truth” of a kind. Following the launch of the special military operation to protect the people of Donbass and Novorossiya, the collective West showed what it is worth. Both the infamous rule of law and basic rules of decency were cast aside. <...>
A new global divide was formed de-facto with the western minority on one side, and the World majority on the other. These are all countries, as well as people of goodwill in the West, who stand for the establishment of a multipolar world supported by a balance of interests.
I believe the main lesson is as follows: we must rely on ourselves in main issues of the functioning of the country and our trusted friends who stayed with us in difficult times.
<...>
❓ Question: Do you support the opinion that US President Donald Trump must take an active participation in negotiations between Russia and Ukraine and become a sort of a peacemaker?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: I would not like to run too far ahead. As President of Russia Vladimir Putin said a number of times, we are always ready for talks. Yet, our national interests must be guaranteed.
The root cause of the conflict in Ukraine must be eradicated – the President highlighted this aspect of the utmost importance in his telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump on February 12.
I would like to remind you that, first and foremost, we speak about eradication of threats to security of Russia from the Ukrainian and the western direction, which emerged following the NATO expansion to the east and the necessity to cease the practice, which the Kiev regime adopted, to exterminate everything which is somewhat connected to Russia and the Russian world. <...>
It is too early to make far-reaching conclusions from what we have just heard from Donald Trump’s administration, but it is encouraging. The President of the United States admitted himself that the NATO expansion and attempts to get Ukraine involved in it became one of the root causes of the conflict.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio speaks about the multipolarity of the modern world and the need to respect the interests of all states, both large and small. For the first time in three years, US diplomats voted jointly with Russia and our associates in the UN against the odious resolution of the General Assembly promoted by Kiev and its patrons from the European Union. <...>
❓ Question: This year, Russia will celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. <...> Are we doing everything right to fully preserve the state’s historical memory of the past and the present?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: The 80th Anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War is the pinnacle event of the year. The Foreign Ministry, as well as other government agencies, is preparing to celebrate it in the most fitting manner, paying tribute to the memory of the heroic deeds of our predecessors. <...>
Despite the information war launched by the collective West, Russia’s voice is heard clearly on the international stage. The world understands that falsifying history and undermining spiritual and moral values will result in deteriorating statehood and the loss of sovereignty. Ukraine is a tragic example of this. <...>
This is why the appeal of the CIS Heads of State to the peoples of the CIS and the international community on the 80th Anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945 was adopted on October 8, 2024 in Moscow.
The year of 2025 in the CIS was declared the Year of the 80th Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War – Year of Peace and Unity in the Fight against Nazism.

⚡️Russia's Foreign Ministry Statement on retaliatory measures to the 16th package of EU sanctions against Russia
💬 Stubbornly fixated on inflicting a “strategic defeat” on our country, the European Union continues to ramp up its unilateral restrictive measures against Russia, which are illegitimate from the international law perspective.
The next, 16th sanctions package, was approved by the EU member states on February 24, the date chosen deliberately to coincide with the anniversary of the start of the special military operation.
In response to these unfriendly actions, the Russian Side has significantly expanded the list of representatives of European institutions and EU member states who are prohibited from entering Russia’s territory in accordance with Federal Law No. 114-FZ of August 15, 1996, On Procedures to Enter and Exit the Russian Federation.
❗️ The decision concerns representatives of law enforcement agencies, state and commercial organisations of EU countries, and citizens of EU member states responsible for providing military aid to Ukraine, carrying out activities aimed at undermining Russia’s territorial integrity and blocking the movement of Russian vessels and cargoes in the Baltic Sea; representatives of European agencies and state bodies of EU countries involved in the prosecution of Russian officials for “illegal arrests and deporting people from Ukrainian territories,” those engaged in the creation of a “tribunal” to prosecute the Russian leadership, advocating the confiscation of Russian assets or the use of profits they generate in the interests of Ukraine; those responsible for imposing sanctions against the Russian Federation and trying to harm Russia’s relations with other states; civil society activists and academics known for their explicit Russophobic rhetoric; MPs in the EU member states and European Parliament members who voted for anti-Russia resolutions and bills.
The Russian “stop list” now also includes certain representatives of the Council of Europe bodies known for their anti-Russia activities.
❌ Hostile actions against the Russian Federation will not go unanswered.
No matter what, Russia will continue to pursue its policy to uphold its national interests and promote a new and fairer international order.

🗓 14 марта в ходе рабочей встречи в МИД России с Послом Королевства Норвегия Р.Квиле российская сторона выразила обеспокоенность растущей милитаризацией Норвегией архипелага Шпицберген.
Вопреки установленному Договором о Шпицбергене 1920 года международно-правовому режиму, предусматривающему исключительно мирное развитие архипелага и запрет на использование его территории в целях войны, Шпицберген всё в большей степени вовлекается в орбиту военно-политического планирования Норвегии с подключением США и НАТО.
В частности, на архипелаге функционируют объекты двойного назначения, позволяющие наряду с гражданскими выполнять задачи военно-прикладного характера, включая ведение боевых действий на территории третьих стран.
❗️ В Москве призвали норвежскую сторону отказаться от любой активности, подрывающей международно-правовые основы режима архипелага, способствующей привнесению на территорию Шпицбергена и в прилегающие морские пространства конфликтного потенциала, ведущей к нагнетанию напряжённости в регионе.

🇷🇺 1️⃣1️⃣ years ago, on March 16, 2014, the historic referendum was held in Crimea – residents of the peninsula unequivocally voted FOR reuniting with their historical homeland, Russia.
🗳 Participation in the referendum was both voluntary and free. An impressive 96.77 percent of the Crimean population voted in favour of becoming part of Russia, with a blasting turnout of 83.1 percent. In Sevastopol, 95.6 percent supported the move, with a turnout of 89.5 percent.
The Crimean referendum was monitored by 135 international observers from 23 countries, alongside 1,240 observers from Crimean organisations, and was reported on by 623 journalists representing 169 media outlets.
🎙 From the briefing by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova (March 13, 2025):
✍️ Following the free expression of will by the Crimean people, the Republic of Crimea signed an international treaty with Russia on March 18, 2014, formalising its accession.
Over the past 11 years, the Republic of Crimea and the federal city of Sevastopol have become fully integrated into the political, legal and economic framework of Russia. Significant infrastructure projects have been undertaken, including the construction of a bridge across the Kerch Strait, the Crimea-Kuban gas pipeline, the Tavrida federal motorway, Simferopol airport, and hundreds of other healthcare, educational, social and engineering facilities.
☝️ Interfaith accord and harmony are preserved in the peninsula, interests of all ethnic groups are taken into account. A complete national and cultural autonomy for the Crimean Tatars has been established, with their representatives participating in local government. The Crimean Tatar language has been recognised as a state language alongside Russian and Ukrainian.
Economic breakthrough and overall advancements achieved over these years, coupled with an unprecedented rise in living standards, the development of infrastructure, and the established interfaith peace in the peninsula, all reaffirm that the choice made by the Crimeans 11 years ago was the only correct one.

OSCAR-WINNING FILM LIES ABOUT THE RED ARMY
✍️ Nikolai Lakhonin, Chief Counselor, Foreign Ministry Information and Press Department
🗞 The annual Oscars Academy Award ceremony attracts attention of the whole world. Recently, another such show took place. We would like to talk <...> about the drama A Real Pain (rated R) directed by Jesse Eisenberg.
It is an American film, made by Americans primarily for Americans and about Americans. This is important. The picture is about historical memory in the perception of American descendants who survived the Holocaust. <...> The picture has already been seen by millions, and after it received the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, even more people will see it. The screenwriters of such films lay down powerful narratives.
☝️ And since they contain a distorted view of the most important events related to our country, we cannot remain silent.
What does the viewer see and hear? Beautiful views of Warsaw to the music by Frederic Chopin, including the Palace of Culture which is a Stalinist high-rise. The tour “about pain, suffering, but also glory” logically starts from the monument to ghetto heroes, the 1943 uprising of imprisoned residents. The British guide emphasises that it is important for him to dispel the myth of Jews who went to slaughter without a murmur. The Western viewers successfully rid themselves of one misconception which is certainly a good thing. But not even an indirect attempt is being made to explain to the audience why their fellow countrymen, ethnic Poles from the heroic Resistance, failed to help the rebellious Jews.
❗️ But the next scene cements another myth. Approaching the monument to the Warsaw Uprising of 1944, the British guide declares that the strangest and scariest part was not that it was suppressed by the Germans (it was probably not too scary), but the role played by the Russians. This is how the lie that the Red Army did not come to the rescue of rebellious Warsaw is promoted and enforced without any context.
Probably, we wouldn’t even be talking about this film at all if it weren’t for this outrageous segment. Next, the protagonist, the grandson of a woman who survived the Holocaust, meaning she was saved by the Red Army, suggests taking a group photo at the monument to the rebels, who, in his words, fought the “fucking Russkies” and the “Krauts.” This is an utterly pejorative and xenophobic way to refer to Russians. That’s how, to the music of Chopin, he took a potshot at the memory of 600,000 Soviet soldiers who died in battles on the territory of modern Poland. <...>
The film director decided not to delve deep into the historical context of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, which was not coordinated with the Soviet side and resulted in additional casualties on the part of the Red Army and the Polish Home Army. So, both the Russophobic lines and segments of the film were deliberately included in the noscript. The question is by whom? The other day the director received Polish citizenship from President Andrzej Duda. Here is the answer.
👎 Through the efforts of such collective “British guides” (authors of books and films, lecturers, and historians), the Red Army gets transformed from a saviour into an “occupier” who accidentally swung by Majdanek and Auschwitz.
In this film, by the way, a Holocaust expert, during a tour of Majdanek’s grounds, claims that the Red Army also exactly just got to Majdanek. Allegedly, there were no bloody battles for the city of Lublin, on the outskirts of which Majdanek is located. There was no Konstantin Simonov’s article “Extermination Camp” in Krasnaya Zvezda on August 10, 1944. There was no joint Soviet-Polish commission that looked into Nazi crimes in Majdanek and published documentary reports about atrocities in the camp, where about 200,000 Jews and about 100,000 people of other ethnicities were exterminated. <...>

🗞 The annual Oscars Academy Award ceremony attracts attention of the whole world. Recently, another such show took place. We would like to talk <...> about the drama A Real Pain (rated R) directed by Jesse Eisenberg.
It is an American film, made by Americans primarily for Americans and about Americans. This is important. The picture is about historical memory in the perception of American descendants who survived the Holocaust. <...> The picture has already been seen by millions, and after it received the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, even more people will see it. The screenwriters of such films lay down powerful narratives.
☝️ And since they contain a distorted view of the most important events related to our country, we cannot remain silent.
What does the viewer see and hear? Beautiful views of Warsaw to the music by Frederic Chopin, including the Palace of Culture which is a Stalinist high-rise. The tour “about pain, suffering, but also glory” logically starts from the monument to ghetto heroes, the 1943 uprising of imprisoned residents. The British guide emphasises that it is important for him to dispel the myth of Jews who went to slaughter without a murmur. The Western viewers successfully rid themselves of one misconception which is certainly a good thing. But not even an indirect attempt is being made to explain to the audience why their fellow countrymen, ethnic Poles from the heroic Resistance, failed to help the rebellious Jews.
❗️ But the next scene cements another myth. Approaching the monument to the Warsaw Uprising of 1944, the British guide declares that the strangest and scariest part was not that it was suppressed by the Germans (it was probably not too scary), but the role played by the Russians. This is how the lie that the Red Army did not come to the rescue of rebellious Warsaw is promoted and enforced without any context.
Probably, we wouldn’t even be talking about this film at all if it weren’t for this outrageous segment.

#CrimeaIsRussia
🗓 11 years ago — on March 18, 2014 — President of Russia Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister of Crimea Sergey Aksyonov, Chairman of the State Council of Crimea Vladimir Konstantinov and Head of Sevastopol Alexey Chalyi signed the Agreement formalising Crimea’s reunification with the Russian Federation.
🗳 This historic moment occurred just two days after the all-Crimean referendum had been held.
96.77% of Crimeans and 95.6% of Sevastopol residents supported reunification with Russia. It was the very embodiment of the right of peoples for self-determination and a true triumph of democracy.
The ensuing developments, including attempts by the post-coup Ukrainian authorities to punish the peninsula's population, prove that the decision of Crimeans to reunite with Russia was the only way to go. Having made their choice to be with their historical homeland, with Russia, the residents of Crimea avoided the fate of the many Russians and Russian-speakers, did not fall victim to the Russophobic Kiev regime.
Instead, the peninsula and its people have flourished, overcoming decades of neglect and decay under Ukraine, becoming one of the most rapidly developing region worldwide.

💬 President Putin: In people’s hearts and minds, Crimea has always been an inseparable part of Russia. This firm conviction is based on truth and justice and was passed from generation to generation, over time, under any circumstances (from the Address by the President of the Russian Federation on March 18, 2014).

💬 Sergey Lavrov: The question of who Crimea and Sevastopol belong to is closed. The peninsula is an integral part of the Russian Federation (from the address of Russia's Foreign Minister on the 10th anniversary of the Crimean Spring, March 16, 2014).

#KievRegimeCrimes
Ukrainian militants continue their terrorist attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure in Russia.
In the early hours of March 11, AFU carried out a massive drone attack on several Russian regions, including the Moscow Region. According to the Russian Ministry of Defence, 343 drones were shot down by the air defence forces on alert duty.
The drones targeted residential houses, social facilities, transport and civilian infrastructure. No one but terrorists could act in such a manner.
Three people were killed. More than 20 people sustained injuries.
<...>
Over the past decade, the hands of Ukrainian militants are stained with the blood of no fewer than 1'700 children.
In 2024 alone, 347 children have fallen victim to the neo-Nazis: 296 minors were injured, and 51 children were killed. The youngest girl murdered by the Ukrainian Nazis was just four months old. This statistic will serve as a tombstone for the Kiev regime.
#Europe #Ukraine
Statements by Western officials, media reports and press leaks refer to Paris and London’s plans to send a “European peacekeeping contingent” to Ukraine.
We regard even a mere articulation of these plans as an openly provocative step aimed at nurturing unsound and harmful illusions in the upper crust of the Kiev regime, rather than at settling the conflict.
Washington is distancing itself from London and Paris’ plans to deploy a contingent of theirs in Ukraine, for it is aware of what this may lead to from the military point of view.
The deployment of other states’ military units in Ukraine is absolutely unacceptable for Russia. It will mean that these countries are directly involved in a military conflict with the Russian Federation, an involvement that will meet with a response using all the means available to this country.
#France #RussianAssets
Our former partners continue their efforts to unlawfully seize – or, to put it plainly, steal – Russian assets frozen within the European Union under illegitimate restrictive measures.
All frozen Russian funds and any income generated from them are the property of the Russian Federation. The appropriation of profits from financial transactions involving our reserve funds – without Russia’s explicit consent – constitutes theft, regardless of any pseudo-legal justifications.
France’s actions clearly indicate a lack of interest in a long-term resolution of the Ukraine crisis.
#BosniaAndHerzegovina
We have taken note of NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte’s recent statement during his visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina on March 11. He called on the Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Presidency to “solve the problem,” openly implying – without even attempting to conceal it – the need to “deal with” the leadership of Republika Srpska.
His remarks only poured fuel on the internal Bosnian crisis, as he unequivocally pushed for the accelerated Euro-Atlantic integration of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
This is yet another provocation designed to escalate tensions in a country where the prospect of NATO membership remains a deeply divisive issue among its entities. The actions of the NATO Secretary General in Sarajevo serve as a clear example of interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state.

🇷🇺🇺🇸📞 Presidents of Russia & the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump spoke over the phone (March 18, 2025)
The Leaders continued their detailed and frank exchange of views on the situation surrounding Ukraine. Vladimir Putin extended gratitude to Donald Trump for his striving to achieve the noble goal of ending the hostilities and loss of life.
Confirming his fundamental commitment to finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict, the President of Russia expressed willingness to thoroughly work out possible solutions in cooperation with the American partners, aimed at reaching a settlement that would be comprehensive, reliable, and lasting, and, naturally, take into account the essential need to eliminate the root causes of the crisis, as well as Russia's legitimate security interests.
Concerning US President's proposal to declare a 30-day ceasefire, the Russian Side outlined a number of significant points regarding ensuring effective control over a possible ceasefire along the entire frontline, as well as the need to stop the forced mobilisation in Ukraine and rearming the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It was noted that some serious risks exist pertaining to the intractability of the Kiev regime which had repeatedly sabotaged and violated negotiated agreements. An emphasis was made on barbaric acts of terrorism committed by Ukrainian militants against civilians residing in the Kursk Region.
It was pointed out that a complete cessation of providing Kiev with foreign military aid and intelligence must become the key condition for preventing an escalation of the conflict and making progress towards its resolution through political and diplomatic means.
Referring to Donald Trump's recent appeal to spare the lives of the Ukrainian servicemen surrounded in the Kursk Region, Vladimir Putin confirmed that the Russian Side was willing to embrace humanitarian motives and guaranteed that the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine would live and be treated fairly in accordance with Russian legislation and international law in the event of surrender.
During the conversation, Donald Trump put forward a proposal for the parties to mutually refrain from strikes on energy infrastructure for 30 days. Vladimir Putin responded favourably to the proposal and immediately gave the relevant order to the Russian troops.
Just as favourable was the Russian President's response to Donald Trump's suggestion to implement a well-known proposal regarding the safety of navigation in the Black Sea. The Leaders agreed to begin talks to further work out specific details of such an agreement.
Vladimir Putin made it known that on March 19, the Russian and Ukrainian sides would carry out an exchange of prisoners, each swapping 175 people. Additionally, as a gesture of goodwill, 23 heavily wounded Ukrainian soldiers currently receiving aid at Russian medical facilities will also be repatriated.
The Leaders confirmed their intention to continue efforts aimed at reaching a settlement in Ukraine bilaterally, with due regard in particular to the aforementioned proposals by the US President. For this purpose, a Russian and an American expert task forces are now being formed.
Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump also addressed some other international issues, including the situation in the Middle East and in the Red Sea region. Joint efforts will be made to stabilise the situation in the crisis spots and establish cooperation on nuclear non-proliferation and global security. This will, in turn, contribute to improving the overall ambiance of relations between Russia and the United States. One positive example is the recent vote in the UN on a resolution on the Ukraine conflict, in which the two countries aligned their stances.
The Leaders expressed mutual interest in normalising the bilateral ties in light of the special responsibility for ensuring global security and stability borne by both Russia and the United States. <...>
🤝 The Presidents agreed to stay in touch on all the issues raised.

🎙️Комментарий Посольства России в Норвегии на запрос газеты «Известия» (19 марта 2025 г.)
❓Вопрос: Премьер-министр Норвегии Й.Г.Стёре заявил о планах увеличить финансовую помощь Украине. Имеются ли данные о том, какие объемы содействия Осло уже предоставил Киеву? Достигла ли Норвегия предела в вопросах поддержки Украины или остается потенциал для дальнейшего увеличения объемов помощи?
💬 Ответ: Действительно, 6 марта норвежское правительство объявило об увеличении объема помощи Украине в 2025 г. на 50 млрд.крон/ 4,7 млрд.долл. до в общей сложности 85 млрд.крон/ 8 млрд.долл. в текущем году и 217 млрд.крон/ 20 млрд.долл. в 2022-2030 гг., включая 57 млрд.крон/ 5,3 мдрд.долл., уже предоставленные Киеву в 2022-2024 гг.
До недавнего времени Норвегия по большей части передавала Киеву вооружения и военную технику, в т.ч. средства ПВО, БПЛА, ракетные и артиллерийские системы, танки, самолеты и пр.), а также 155-мм боеприпасы и иное снабжение из наличия своих ВС. Однако, как признают местные военные, запасы на их складах близки к исчерпанию. Теперь в Осло делают ставку на приобретение оружия для ВСУ у норвежского, западного и с недавних пор напрямую у украинского ВПК, а также на участие в многосторонних механизмах оборонных закупок и наращивания военного производства. Кроме того, здесь осуществляется масштабная модернизация ВС Норвегии. По мере поступления современных систем вооружений списанная техника может передаваться Киеву.
На фоне украинского конфликта Норвегия хорошо заработала на поставках газа в Европу после отказа ряда европейских стран от российских энергоносителей. Норвежские власти послушно следуют в русле жестко конфронтационных подходов западной либеральной «партии войны», нацеленной на нанесение России «стратегического поражения» посредством продолжения «прокси-войны» с нашей страной «до последнего украинца». Так что мы определенно видим потенциал для дальнейшего усиления накачки киевского режима со стороны Осло.
❓Вопрос: Ведутся ли дискуссии о вступлении Норвегии в ЕС? Возможно ли проведение референдума по этому вопросу в ближайшие годы?
💬 Ответ: Мощное проесовское лобби в Норвегии пытается использовать разгорающуюся «торговую войну» между Вашингтоном и Брюсселем в своих интересах, целенаправленно нагнетая через СМИ панические настроения и предлагая решение - как можно быстрее оформить членство страны в ЕС.
Однако против вступления в Евросоюз по-прежнему выступает большинство норвежцев. В этой связи лидеры двух ведущих политсил страны - правящей Рабочей партии и правоконсервативной «Хёйре» - уже объявили, что не будут поднимать тему проведения нового референдума по вопросу евроинтеграции Норвегии не только в ходе предвыборной гонки, но и в рамках следующего парламентского периода (2025-2029 гг.), дабы не усугублять поляризацию общества по этой теме.

🎙️Kommentar fra Russlands ambassade i Norge på en henvendelse fra avisen «Izvestiya» (19. mars 2025)
❓Statsminister Jonas Gahr Støre har annonsert planer om å øke den økonomiske bistanden til Ukraina. Finnes det noen opplysninger om hvor mye bistand Oslo allerede har gitt til Kiev? Har Norge nådd grensen for støtten til Ukraina, eller er det fortsatt potensial for ytterligere økning av bistanden?
💬 Svar: 6. mars kunngjorde den norske regjeringen en økning på 50 milliarder kroner i bistand til Ukraina i 2025, til totalt 85 milliarder kroner i år og 217 milliarder kroner i 2022-2030, inkludert 57 milliarder kroner som allerede er gitt til Kiev i 2022-2024.
Inntil nylig har Norge for det meste forsynt Kiev med våpen og militært utstyr (inkludert luftvernsystemer, droner, missil- og artillerisystemer, stridsvogner, fly osv.), samt 155 mm ammunisjon og andre forsyninger fra lagrer til sine væpnede styrker. Men de lokale militære erkjenner at lagrene deres er i ferd med å tømmes. Nå er Oslo avhengig av å kjøpe våpen til ukrainske styrker fra det norske, vestlige og, i den siste tiden, direkte fra det ukrainske militærindustrielle komplekset, i tillegg til å delta i multilaterale mekanismer for forsvarsanskaffelser og oppbygging av militær produksjon. I tillegg pågår det en storstilt modernisering av det norske forsvaret. Etter hvert som moderne våpensystemer blir tilgjengelige, kan utrangert utstyr overføres til Kiev.
På bakgrunn av Ukraina-konflikten tjente Norge gode penger på gassleveranser til Europa etter at en rekke europeiske land sa nei til russiske energiressurser. Norske myndigheter følger lydig de vestlige liberale «krigspartienes» harde konfrontasjonslinje, som tar sikte på å påføre Russland et «strategisk nederlag» ved å fortsette «stedfortrederkrigen» med vårt land «til siste ukrainer». Så vi ser definitivt et potensial for en ytterligere intensivering av Oslos opprustning av Kiev-regimet.
❓Er det noen diskusjoner om norsk EU-medlemskap? Er det mulig å avholde en folkeavstemning om dette spørsmålet i løpet av de kommende årene?
💬 Svar: Den mektige EU-lobbyen i Norge forsøker å bruke den pågående «handelskrigen» mellom USA og EU i egeninteresse, ved målrettet å skape panikkstemning i mediene og tilby en løsning - å formalisere landets medlemskap i EU så snart som mulig.
Flertallet av nordmenn er imidlertid fortsatt motstandere av EU-medlemskap. I den forbindelse har lederne for landets to ledende politiske krefter - Arbeiderpartiet som sitter i regjering og det konservative "Høyre" - allerede kunngjort at de ikke vil ta opp spørsmålet om å avholde en ny folkeavstemning om Norges europeiske integrasjon, ikke bare i valgkampen, men også i neste stortingsperiode (2025-2029), for ikke å forsterke polariseringen i samfunnet om dette temaet.

💬 Svar: 6. mars kunngjorde den norske regjeringen en økning på 50 milliarder kroner i bistand til Ukraina i 2025, til totalt 85 milliarder kroner i år og 217 milliarder kroner i 2022-2030, inkludert 57 milliarder kroner som allerede er gitt til Kiev i 2022-2024.
Inntil nylig har Norge for det meste forsynt Kiev med våpen og militært utstyr (inkludert luftvernsystemer, droner, missil- og artillerisystemer, stridsvogner, fly osv.), samt 155 mm ammunisjon og andre forsyninger fra lagrer til sine væpnede styrker. Men de lokale militære erkjenner at lagrene deres er i ferd med å tømmes. Nå er Oslo avhengig av å kjøpe våpen til ukrainske styrker fra det norske, vestlige og, i den siste tiden, direkte fra det ukrainske militærindustrielle komplekset, i tillegg til å delta i multilaterale mekanismer for forsvarsanskaffelser og oppbygging av militær produksjon. I tillegg pågår det en storstilt modernisering av det norske forsvaret. Etter hvert som moderne våpensystemer blir tilgjengelige, kan utrangert utstyr overføres til Kiev.
På bakgrunn av Ukraina-konflikten tjente Norge gode penger på gassleveranser til Europa etter at en rekke europeiske land sa nei til russiske energiressurser. Norske myndigheter følger lydig de vestlige liberale «krigspartienes» harde konfrontasjonslinje, som tar sikte på å påføre Russland et «strategisk nederlag» ved å fortsette «stedfortrederkrigen» med vårt land «til siste ukrainer». Så vi ser definitivt et potensial for en ytterligere intensivering av Oslos opprustning av Kiev-regimet.
❓Er det noen diskusjoner om norsk EU-medlemskap? Er det mulig å avholde en folkeavstemning om dette spørsmålet i løpet av de kommende årene?
💬 Svar: Den mektige EU-lobbyen i Norge forsøker å bruke den pågående «handelskrigen» mellom USA og EU i egeninteresse, ved målrettet å skape panikkstemning i mediene og tilby en løsning - å formalisere landets medlemskap i EU så snart som mulig.
Flertallet av nordmenn er imidlertid fortsatt motstandere av EU-medlemskap. I den forbindelse har lederne for landets to ledende politiske krefter - Arbeiderpartiet som sitter i regjering og det konservative "Høyre" - allerede kunngjort at de ikke vil ta opp spørsmålet om å avholde en ny folkeavstemning om Norges europeiske integrasjon, ikke bare i valgkampen, men også i neste stortingsperiode (2025-2029), for ikke å forsterke polariseringen i samfunnet om dette temaet.

«Битва за Москву» – киноэпопея режиссёра Юрия Озерова, рассказывающая о том, как начиналась Великая Отечественная война. Озеров лично прошёл её – от самого начала и до весны 1945 года. На фронте он дал себе слово: если вернётся живым, то снимет кино о подвигах советских солдат
И всю оставшуюся жизнь режиссёр посвятил фильмам о войне.
Премьера киноэпопеи «Битва за Москву» состоялась в 1985 году. Фильм первый – «Агрессия» – рассказывает о событиях накануне войны, происходящих в Европе, Азии и на территории СССР. Фильм второй – «Тайфун» – в деталях показывает, как фашисты разрабатывали план захвата Москвы.
Посмотреть фильм можно на сайте и в мобильном приложении «Победа80».
