“I don’t want to get our country in trouble so I won’t answer it. But I can tell you who it wasn’t, was Russia. How about when they blamed Russia. They said ‘Russia blew up their own pipeline.’ You got a kick out of that one, too. It wasn’t Russia,” he told the Fox News pundit.

Yep! The U.S.A. and its lackeys just spent more than 8 years building the strongest army in Europe (was called Ukraine)…

“Poland wants to build the strongest army in Europe,” Morawiecki said. “That is why we want to cooperate with the most advanced defense industry in the world, which is the American industry.”

I guess that is why we have all those Polish jokes in the USA…

Except, everything Western is no longer a joke, it is simply psycho…

Brief:

• April 14 marks the 9th anniversary of the announcement of the so-called holding in the Donbass. “anti-terrorist operation” . Thus began the violent suppression of the protest of the peaceful inhabitants of the region, who were not afraid to oppose the government of national radicals.

• All these years, the residents of the DPR have been inextricably linked with their historical homeland – Russia, which ultimately predetermined their choice in favor of joining our country following a referendum in September 2022.

• Contrary to the statements of the Kyiv regime, those who choose to remain loyal to previous generations and values will have a future, and more.

• After so many decades after the liberation of Odessa, the city again experienced the horror of Nazism , but now of modern, Ukrainian origin.

• Despite the terror unleashed by the Kiev regime, the native Odessans never forgot who delivered them from the brown plague, and sacredly keep the memory of their liberators – the soldiers of the Red Army, who did not divide themselves by nationality and religion, but were multinational and thought about how to free the world from evil.

• We believe that Odessa will be able to get rid of the oppression of Ukrainian neo-Nazis and once again become a free, “sunny acacia city by the Black Sea,” as the legendary Leonid Utyosov sang.

• The punitive operation of the Kyiv regime in the Donbass claimed the lives of thousands of innocent people, including children and women. The West was not just silent, it actively participated , inspired, implemented, encouraged, financed, and then led. The consequences of this criminal step of the Kyiv regime are obvious to everyone.

• Western countries do not stop pumping weapons to Ukraine , demanding from it the continuation of hostilities, regardless of any victims. The Anglo-Saxons do not hide the fact that the option of a possible truce is categorically unacceptable for them and they expect decisive steps from Kyiv and readiness for a bloody slaughter to the “last Ukrainian”.

• The amount pledged and spent by the European Peace Fund for the year only for the promotion of hostilities in Ukraine was planned to ensure security in various regions of the world until 2027.

• Children disappearing in the territory of the EU countries are of no interest to anyone in the West.

• Orthodox priests in Ukraine are not just persecuted, they are brutally abused . Unfortunately, relevant international organizations, including UNESCO and the OSCE, as well as members of the world community, do not in any way condemn the crimes against the Orthodox Church.

• The “collective West” actually launched a “war” against Russian culture .

• Individual countries, with the connivance of their “big brothers” in Washington and Brussels, grossly violate international law , neglecting their obligations to preserve their cultural and historical heritage, and even flaunt their illegal actions.

We’ve no defence. We’ve no, none, & zilch…

No, capacity to provision a serious military expenditure. We’ve no sedulousness to proselytize, no fatcat, and no judgmental accoutrements…

🎙 Welcome speech by the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation S.A. Ryabkov to the participants of the plenary session “ BRICS Development Strategy: Equal Opportunities in an Unequal World” of the XXIV Yasinsk (April) International Scientific Conference on the Development of the Economy and Society

Read completely

💬 This year, the plenary session of the conference is dedicated to the BRICS interstate association, its role in shaping the world political and economic architecture. I regard this as an unequivocal recognition of the fact that the “five” has become an influential factor in modern international relations .

Against the backdrop of the ongoing degradation of global governance institutions and the entire system of world economic relations, caused, in fact, by miscalculations and the neo-colonial policy of the United States and its allies, attention to #БРИКС as a spokesman for the interests of the developing world is only growing.

☝️ BRICS is rightly perceived as one of the pillars of a more just world order , the guardian of true multilateralism based on respect for international law and the sovereign choice of one’s own path of development.

The BRICS strategic partnership offers the world creative, unifying, forward-looking initiatives aimed at finding collective answers to the most pressing issues on the international agenda, including:

👉 achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals;
👉 ensuring food and energy security;
👉 contributing to the post-pandemic recovery of the global economy;
👉 fighting climate change.

❗️ Our countries have everything necessary for this. Together we represent more than 40% of the world’s population, about 30% of the earth’s land mass, a third of the world’s GDP at purchasing power parity. That’s more than the G7 states. BRICS accounts for over a third of the world’s food supply, including more than 40% of world grain production .
