🎙 President Vladimir #Putin at the celebration of the 10th Anniversary of Crimea and Sevastopol’s reunification with the Russian Federation (March 18, 2024)

💬 Crimea is not only a strategically vital territory, not only part of our history, our traditions and Russia’s pride. Crimea is primarily its people. The people of #Sevastopol and #Crimea, they are our pride. They remained faithful to the homeland over the decades, they never separated themselves from Russia, and this is precisely what made it possible for Crimea to come back to our common family🇷🇺

The same is true of #Donbass and Novorossiya. The people living there expressed their will to return to their family during the days of the “Russian Spring.” Their path home involved much greater difficulty and tragedy. Nevertheless, we did it, and it is also a great event in the history of our state.

🚉Now we are making progress and moving forward together, side by side. Just this morning, I received a report that the railway from Rostov to Donetsk, Mariupol and Berdyansk has been restored. We will continue this work and soon trains will go straight to Sevastopol. This would be yet another alternative route – instead of the Crimean Bridge.

🗓 Russia & Crimea have gone hand in hand throughout history dating all the way back to the second half of the X century, when the peninsula’s eastern part was included in the Ancient Rus' Principality of Tmutarakan.

☦️ The Rus' reinforced its position in Crimea after the successful campaign by Grand Prince Vladimir against the Byzantine city of Korsun' in 988. It was here, in Tauric Chersonesus that Vladimir the Great was baptised & initiated Christianisation of Rus' — a decision that largely determined the future of our Motherland, its cultural & historical path.

In the XIII century, the Golden Horde seized Crimean lands. After its collapse, the Crimean Khanate, vassal of the Ottoman Empire, emerged in the XV century. During the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–1774, Russia ended the Ottoman domination on the peninsula.

📜 In 1783, Catherine the Great issued a Manifesto on the accession of the Crimean Peninsula to the Russian Empire. This was done on requests of Crimeans themselves.

⚔️ Subsequently, Russian soldiers bravely & honourably defended the peninsula against Russia's enemies. We remember the heroes who fell during the Defence of Sevastopol in 1854-1855 & the Soviet soldiers during the Great Patriotic War's Battle for Crimea.

In 1954, Crimea was incorporated into the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic against the will of its residents & in violation of the law.

🗳 In the 1990s, residents of Crimea repeatedly attempted to receive broader autonomy from Ukraine & enhance their historical ties with Russia.

What did Kiev do? It substantially limited the rights & freedoms of the Crimeans. And following the February 2014 coup d'état & the seizing of power by the nationalists, there emerged a very tangible threat of the same kind of brutal violence to be used against the peninsula's residents.

🇷🇺 On March 18, 2014 the much-awaited reunification took place — based on the free expression of will by Crimeans in the March 16 referendum Crimea acceded to Russia, reuniting once again & now forever!

🌷Today marks International Nowruz Day, a holiday symbolising new beginnings and the arrival of spring.

Nowruz (Persian — "new day") is considered the start of the new year by more than 300 million people around the world and has been celebrated for over 3,000 years in Central Asia, the Balkans, the Black Sea Basin, the Caucasus, the Middle East and other regions.

📜 Nowruz originated in Ancient Persia. It marked the arrival of summer and the defeat of the evil spirit. The holiday acquired particular importance during the reign of the Achaemenid dynasty in the 400s-500s BC. Nowruz regained its status under the Safavid dynasty, with the holiday rituals becoming increasingly elaborate up to the XX century as a means of demonstrating power and grandeur.

Over time, Nowruz has not only become a national holiday but a cultural event, which unites various nations and faiths in mutual respect.

🇷🇺 Nowruz is an essential and integral part of the historical, cultural, and spiritual heritage of many peoples of Russia and is widely celebrated in Dagestan, Tatarstan, and Bashkiria.

Celebrations will take to the streets of Moscow as well. Participants of the 18th citywide festival will share stories about family traditions, showcase their national cultures and rituals.

🎉 Happy Nowruz to everyone celebrating the holiday of renewal and spring! Many wishes of success and family well-being!

🎙 President Vladimir Putin's address to Russian citizens on the outcome of the presidential election (March 21, 2024)

💬 The official results of the presidential election were announced today. The election campaign, which was extremely important for our country, society and citizens, has come to a close.

<...>

This election campaign was intense and extremely important. At the end of the day, we were choosing Russia's future direction; we were deciding on our own future and that of our children. The absolute majority of the voters who cast their ballot realised the significance of this event.

Once again, I would like to thank everyone who took part in the voting, regardless of which candidate you voted for. Most importantly, you have shown that you treat your civic duty with respect, value freedom of choice and your vote, and to reiterate, every one of your votes was of great importance.

<...>

Thank you for your support. It is more important to me than the formal victory in the elections. It signifies support for the political and economic policies of our country and our overall results, which, of course, should be more extensive, but are nonetheless making Russia stronger and more independent.

A few words about the performance of election commissions at all levels. As always, you acted efficiently and competently, adhering to the principles of transparency and strict compliance with the law. The members of the election commissions in our historical territories showed courage and bravery, serving as an example for voters.

Thank you for your trust. <...> We will do everything possible to ensure the successful implementation of the ambitious national projects and programmes that I recently outlined in my Address.

🇷🇺 The elections have revealed that Russia today is one big, closely-knit family. We are steadfastly following the historical path we have chosen. We have confidence in ourselves, our abilities, and our future.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview for the documentary series Oil (Moscow, March 21, 2024)

Key points:

🔹 All natural resources on which economic development, influence and might depend are instruments of political struggle. <...> The Americans have been using oil and oil prices as a weapon.

🔹 What is the oil price cap imposed on Russian oil by the Americans, which the West was pressured to adopt as well? It is flagrant interference in the workings and principles of the free market, which the Americans have been promoting for decades.

🔹 The pinnacle of using hydrocarbons as a weapon was the explosion of the Nord Stream pipelines. <...> It is evidence of the current German government’s impotence and inability not just to think independently but to even protect its vital interests.

🔹 Everyone is well aware of Washington’s methods. <...> When talking with Washington, you need to firmly press for your own advantage and never expect it to fulfil its sweet promises.

🔹 The OPEC Plus, where both Iran and Russia are members, has a clear formula for reaching agreements and finding compromises. It has been used for years, and nobody has been disadvantaged or dissatisfied.

🔹 In Syria, the oil and grain production is concentrated in the northeast, and the Americans have occupied this area. They are producing oil there and are stealing it. <...> This is colonialism pure and simple.

🔹 Oil, gas and hydrocarbons in general will continue to play the key role in the development of the global economy and in ensuring the well-being of nearly all countries for a long time to come, for many decades.

🇷🇺🇪🇬📞 During the telephone conversation, President of the Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah el-Sisi congratulated Vladimir Putin on his re-election as President of the Russian Federation, noting his great personal contribution to strengthening friendly relations between Russia and Egypt.

Current issues on the international agenda were considered, including the situation around Ukraine and in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict zone. President Putin praised Cairo's efforts to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.

The expectation is that Egypt, as a full member of #BRICS, will actively participate in events held as part of the Russian chairmanship.

⚡️ Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:

The Office of the UN Secretary-General said it “is saddened” by the reports of the shooting.

SADDENNED? SHOOTING? Did it break out at a shooting range or something?

❗️ People are using their last ounce of strength to share live images of the monstrous terrorist attack that doesn’t just “sadden” but evokes horror, shock, unequivocal condemnation, righteous anger and compassion for the victims.
