🇷🇺🇦🇫 Из заявления С.В.Лаврова о ситуации вокруг Афганистана:

ЧИТАТЬ ПОЛНОСТЬЮ

Хотел бы отметить нашу приверженность международному праву, как и всех остальных членов мирового сообщества в том, что касается официального, юридического и международно-правового признания новых афганских властей.

Для этого считаем, что им необходимо продолжать усилия по борьбе с террористическими организациями, которые пока, к сожалению, в Афганистане сохраняют свои позиции, усилия по борьбе с наркотрафиком.

Также необходимо обеспечить выполнение ещё одного своего обязательства, которое талибы взяли на себя публично, придя к власти, а именно, создание инклюзивного этнополитического правительства, в котором должны быть представлены не только представители различных этнических и конфессиональных групп, но и представители всех ключевых политических движений страны.

🟥 On April 30, 1945, during the storming of the #Reichstag, the first Red Banner was installed on its facade by 20-year-old Rakhimzhan #Koshkarbaev and 19-year-old Grigory #Bulatov.

🎖For the heroism shown during the battle, they were awarded the Order of the Red Banner.

🔔Выдержки из выступления Постпреда России при ОБСЕ А.К.Лукашевича «О продолжающихся грубых нарушений русского и русскоязычного населения в некоторых государствах-участниках ОБСЕ»(заседание Постоянного совета ОБСЕ, 28 апреля 2022 года):

👉🏻Позорное явление русофобии стало неотъемлемой частью новой реальности в ряде государств-участников ОБСЕ. С труднообъяснимым восторгом искореняется все, что связано с Россией, грубо попираются права и свободы русского и русскоязычного населения, включая детей

 👉🏻Правозащитные структуры ООН и ОБСЕ не реагируют должным образом на эти вопиющие случаи дискриминации и расизма, когда людей преследуют просто за их происхождение, язык или культуру

 👉🏻Развернувшаяся русофобия имеет множество уродливых проявлений и затрагивает практически все сферы жизни, включая историческую память. «На камеру» варварски демонтируются памятники, оскверняются воинские захоронения и др.

👉🏻Страшная картина наблюдается в Польше, где из 561 памятников сохранилось только 100. Осквернение и вандализм в отношении советского военно-мемориального наследия продолжается в Латвии, Литве, Эстонии, Чехии, Словакии

 👉🏻Призываем исполнительные структуры ОБСЕ дать принципиальную оценку «расцвету» русофобии, а государства-участников прекратить пренебрежение своими обязательствами и реально противодействовать дискриминации русского и русскоязычного населения

🔔Extracts from the statement of Russian Permanent Representative to the OSCE Alexander Lukashevich “On the continuing gross violations of the Russian and Russian-speaking population in some OSCE participating States”(meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council, 28 April 2022):

👉🏻The shameful phenomenon of Russophobia has become an integral part of new reality in a number of OSCE pS. Everything related to Russia is being enthusiastically eradicated, rights & freedoms of Russian/Russian-speaking population, incl. children, are flagrantly violated.

👉🏻#UN and #OSCE human rights bodies do not react properly to these blatant cases of discrimination and racism when people are persecuted simply due to their origin, language or culture

👉🏻The unfolding Russophobia has many ugly manifestations and affects almost all spheres of life, including historical memory. Barbarous dismantling of monuments takes place “on camera”, war graves are desecrated etc.

👉🏻A terrible picture is observed in Poland, where only 100 out of 561 monuments remain. Desecration and vandalism against the Soviet military memorial heritage continue continue in Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia

👉🏻We call on the OSCE executive structures to give a principled assessment of the flourishing of Russophobia, and on OSCE pS to stop neglecting their commitments and to really counter discrimination against the Russian/ Russian-speaking population
 

🎙 Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s comment on Ukraine’s case in the International Criminal Court

💬 An announcement made on April 25 to the effect that the International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor’s Office will join the Joint Investigation Group comprised of Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine and created under the auspices of Eurojust has come to our attention.

Everyone is aware of how such entities operate. It is safe to assume that the work of their brainchild will be similarly biased and one-sided.

☝️ If anyone doubts that the ICC is a body that is fulfilling political orders and has nothing to do with independent justice, this new “creative” format has made it perfectly clear.

We would like to ask the ICC Prosecutor’s Office and the countries that are now so concerned about justice in Ukraine why, for eight years, they ignored the suffering of Donbass residents?

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova:

💬 Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby is losing his nerve. He is being rude, insulting, and troublesome. He said some nonsense about the Russian President.

Among other gibberish, he said it was “hard to look at what Russian forces are doing in Ukraine.” Really? How hard can it be for an American rear admiral to look at anything?

Kirby has an impressive service record: 28 years in the Navy (1986-2015), including as Chief of Navy Information. This means he was among the senior US officers who received all of the Pentagon’s information, so he was aware of literally everything. He knew about depleted uranium in Yugoslavia and about the Iraq War Logs, as they now call a large body of documents testifying to war crimes committed by US military personnel in Iraq.

We learned about all this thanks to Wikileaks and its creators, who are being destroyed by Kirby’s colleagues, but John read these reports every day: about thousands and thousands of civilians who died in Iraqi and Syrian villages from the atrocities of the American troops. Considering the level of the US military’s equipment, there is no doubt that he saw photographs and video footage. I wonder, was it difficult for him to watch those inhuman spectacles?

But it’s different now. I can see 2️⃣ reasons for that.

First, his agency was caught engaging in illegal activities: developing biological weapons in Ukraine. Everyone would start to lose their nerve, considering the US international obligations.

Second, all of this is happening at the same time as the political team is leaving the White House. Everyone is fleeing. According to US media, the outflow of high-ranking officials from the White House has started. The reason given by experts in the United States is pervasive pessimism due to the lack of trust in the Administration and Biden personally.

If the control over Congress goes to the Republicans, these guys won’t know what hit them. Kirby will be the first to get dragged through public hearings. No, it will be Nuland first. Then Kirby.

I have already written about the sudden desire of Daleep Singh, Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economics in the President’s Administration, the architect of anti-Russian sanctions, to take a break from his hard work.

☝️ It turns out many of them are feeling the strain of the past year.

According to US media, Senior Advisor to the President, Director of the Office of Public Engagement Cedric Richmond is about to retire; National Climate Advisor Gina McCarthy, Deputy White House Communications Director Pili Tobar, and Chief of Staff for the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate Dan Feldman are all planning to retire, too.

John Kerry is considering leaving the ship by the end of the year, according to the same American media. But I believe in him. It would be dishonourable to leave climate and Biden at a moment like this.

I don’t even want to write about what’s going on in the team of US Vice President Kamala Harris. It’s an exodus. Chiefs of staff and the press service will follow the lead of dozens of key staff members who have already left.

❗️ So what’s hard for Kirby is to look at his own future, not at the developments in Ukraine.
