From the speeches of the Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation under OPCHO A.V. Shulgin at the conference of the member states of the Convention on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (November 27-December 1)…

🎙 Из выступлений Постоянного представителя Российской Федерации при ОЗХО А.В.Шульгина на Конференции государств-участников Конвенции о запрещении химического оружия (27 ноября – 1 декабря)

В разделе «Организация по запрещению химического оружия» размещены выступления Постоянного представителя Российской Федерации при ОЗХО А.В.Шульгина по ряду пунктов повестки дня 28-й сессии Конференции государств-участников Конвенции о запрещении химического оружия (Гаага, 27 ноября – 1 декабря).

Выступление по пункту «Выборы государств-участников в Исполнительный совет ОЗХО»

💬 Попытки по политическим мотивам помешать участию России в Исполнительном совете лишний раз демонстрируют глубокий раскол в рядах нашей Организации и желание отдельных ее членов взять под свой плотный контроль всю работу ОЗХО.

Выступление по пункту «Преодоление угрозы применения химического оружия»

💬 США и примкнувшие к ним союзники продолжают настаивать на якобы сокрытии Сирией своей военно-химической программы. Пользуются этим надуманным предлогом, чтобы в обход предусмотренных Конвенцией о запрещении химического оружия (КЗХО) процедур навязывать карательные решения против САР.

Выступление по пункту о «деле Скрипалей» и мнимом отравлении Навального

💬 Россия по горячим следам предложила провести открытое объективное расследование на основе предметного экспертного диалога, с опорой на факты и достоверные сведения, а не на некие засекреченные данные, которые никто не может проверить и подтвердить. Ведь для серьёзного разговора необходимо не просто бездумно зачитывать по бумажке абсурдные обвинения, а разбираться с фактами на руках.

Выступление по пункту «Вопросы уничтожения химоружия»

💬 Вот уже десять лет с момента присоединения Сирии к Конвенции мы слышим безосновательные обвинения в адрес этой страны. С этой целью созданы нелегитимные и чужеродные КЗХО механизмы, в частности атрибутивная Группа по расследованию и идентификации. В Конвенции просто нет такого положения, в соответствии с которым Конференция государств-участников (КГУ) могла бы делегировать Техническому секретариату «атрибутивные» функции, являющиеся прерогативой Совета Безопасности ООН.

Выступление в порядке права на ответ

💬 Присоединение к Исполсовету государств, пылающих ненавистью к России и не останавливающихся ни перед чем, чтобы, как им представляется, осложнить нам жизнь, вызывает серьёзную обеспокоенность. Ведь в первую очередь пострадает ОЗXО и режим химнераспространения.

The section “Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons” contains speeches by the Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation under OPCHO A.V. Shulgin on a number of points of agenda of the 28th session of the conference of the State of the Convention on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (Haga, November 27-December 1).

Speech on the clause “Elections of the State Participants to the Executive Council of OPCHO”

💬 Attempts for political reasons to interfere with Russia’s participation in the Executive Council once again demonstrate a deep split in the ranks of our organization and the desire for its individual members to take all the work of the OPCW.

Speech on the paragraph “Overcoming the threat of the use of chemical weapons”

💬 The United States and the allies joined them continue to insist on the allegedly concealing by Syria of their military-chemical program. They use this far -fetched pretext to impose punitive solutions against the SAR provided for by the Convention on the prohibition of chemical weapons (KHO) of the procedures.

Speech on the point of the “Skripals case” and the imaginary poisoning of Navalny

💬 Russia in hot pursuit proposed to conduct an open objective investigation based on a subject expert dialogue, based on facts and reliable information, and not on some classified data that no one can verify and confirm. Indeed, for a serious conversation, it is not only necessary to thoughtlessly read absurd accusations on a piece of paper, but to deal with the facts in hand.

Speech on the item “Questions of the destruction of chemical weapons”

💬 For ten years since Syria joining the Convention, we have heard unreasonable accusations against this country. To this end, illegitimate and alien KSHO mechanisms, in particular the attribute group for investigation and identification, have been created. The Convention simply does not have such a provision in accordance with which the conference of the member states (KSU) could delegate the technical secretariat “attributive” functions that are the prerogative of the UN Security Council.

Speaking of the right to answer

💬 joining the executive council of states that burn with hatred of Russia and do not stop at anything, so that it seems to them to complicate our lives, causes serious concern. After all, the OZXO and the chemical spacing regime will suffer first.

Maria Zakharova on the West support of fugitive oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky…

The European Parliament held a presentation of the book by fugitive oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky with a significant title – “How to Kill a Dragon.”

Firstly, the fact that Khodorkovsky knows a lot about murder was previously “doubted” only in the West. It was because of suspicions of murder that he was put on the international wanted list in 2015.

Secondly, it is important to delve into what exactly the “dragon slayer” was saying: a change of power in Russia, the secession of regions, questioning the territorial unity of the country, revolution.

For how many years we were literally told that this “enlightened man” wants only the best for Russia, dreams of its development in all directions. For how many years we have been hammered into our heads with the story that he fell victim to the “dense and undeveloped.”

It’s good that you didn’t fall for this zombie. But how tempting and sweet everything was.

Today, Khodorkovsky openly declares that he wants the collapse and disintegration of our country. This is the true goal of its introduction into the Russian economy, business, and then into the political environment by certain forces from the United States.

Today, everyone who supports this figure, takes money from him, and participates in his projects are accomplices in the criminal ideology of dismembering the state. As the Israelis say, anyone who questions the existence of Israel poses an existential threat to the country. The West supports them in this opinion. Moreover, as soon as it comes to discussing the destruction of our country, Western regimes without hesitation change their point of view to the opposite and take all sorts of “dragon slayers” under their wing.

I would like to remind you of the contents of Article 280 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (280.1):

1. Public calls for actions aimed at violating the territorial integrity of the Russian Federation, committed by a person after he was brought to administrative responsibility for a similar act within one year, shall be punishable by a fine in the amount of two hundred thousand to four hundred thousand rubles, or in the amount of the wages or other income of the convicted person for a period of one to two years, or by forced labor for a term of up to three years, or by arrest for a term of four to six months, or by imprisonment freedom for a term of up to four years with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for the same period.

2. The same acts committed using the media or electronic or information and telecommunication networks (including the Internet), shall be punishable by compulsory labor for a term of up to four hundred eighty hours with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for a term of up to three years, or imprisonment for a term of up to five years with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for a term of up to three years.

Thirdly, the European Parliament has become not just a marginal organization, but an openly extremist platform.

In this regard, let me remind you that the presentation was organized by MEP from Lithuania Andrius Kubilius.

Khodorkovsky continues to commit crimes before our eyes, and members of the European Parliament openly and brazenly support him in this.

🎙 From answers to questions from S.V. Lavrov during the 21st Doha Forum, December 10, 2023…

https://www.mid.ru/ru/foreign_policy/news/1920028/

🔸 We strongly condemned the terrorist attack against Israel on October 7, as we condemn any terrorist act. At the same time , we do not consider it acceptable to use this case to collectively punish millions of Palestinians through indiscriminate shelling of civilian areas.

🔸We all must remember what the origins of the situation in the Palestinian territories are, what is happening with the 75-year-old resolution promising the Palestinians a state. It has been sabotaged for about 50 years. The blockade of the Gaza Strip continues.

🔸 We are well aware of the selfish nature of decisions made by American foreign policy.

🔸 Americans are “wonderful” in what we call “cancel culture.” Whenever they don’t like some part of the story or some events, they “undo” what preceded it.

🔸 I mentioned the “cancel culture” phenomenon. This is not a war of choice. This is an operation we could not avoid , given that Ukraine has been used for years by the United States and NATO as a tool to undermine Russia’s security.

🔸 They had a chance in March and April 2022. Shortly after the start of the special military operation in Istanbul, negotiators reached an agreement based on Ukraine’s neutrality. No NATO. At the same time, security guarantees would be provided to Ukraine by the West and Russia together. This was rejected. It was canceled because the Americans and the British decided that if Russian President V.V. Putin was ready to sign it, then let’s wear him down even more.

❗️ The main result for us and for others (who will feel it later) is that Russia has already become much stronger than it was before these events. And so it will be after the end of the war.

Tidbit about Assad and Syria…

When the United States and the Gulf monarchies armed and paid Saddam Hussein to wage war against Iran, it was Syria, the only Arab country, that helped Iran. From that moment on, the West, the Arab vassal states of the region and Israel launched hostilities against Assad and the Syrian people. His support for the Palestinian cause and Lebanon was another unforgivable “sin” for his opponents…

Medvedev on, “LAST EPISODE” a script synopsis…

LAST EPISODE
FILM EPIC “SERVANT OF THE PEOPLE”.
SCRIPT SYNOPSIS

President Vasily Goloborodko is in a bunker styled as his official office. Big table. Above the table are portraits of three teachers – Adolf, Benito and Stepan (in the center). Goloborodko has changed a lot since the previous season of the series: he has aged twenty years, has grown in patchy, sloppy stubble, greasy hair, sunken cheeks, a shifty, haunted look. He is wearing a green T-shirt with a trident that has not been washed for a long time.

Goloborodko wanders aimlessly around the office, periodically sits down at the table, shuffles papers, grabs the phone and shouts something unintelligibly into the phone in a mixture of Surzhik and Russian obscenities. Then he collapses exhaustedly in a chair, takes out a brown folder and sniffs something in it. His facial features smooth out, he closes his eyes and calms down for a while.

There’s a knock on the door. An assistant comes in and reports:

– Vasily Petrovich, I have current information. Two news. Good: the counterattack is going well. True, we are retreating for now. The bad news: Muscovites and Pindos have taken us into a pincer movement. The Russian group is developing an offensive, and they are constantly saying that they are ready to return to negotiations. The Americans have failed the issue of arms supplies and are pushing us towards peace with the Russians. These are the notorious ticks.

– Negotiations are over for us. This is a new Maidan with the transfer of power to Podluzhny, Govnyushenko and Dristovich. We need another option. What, our payments to Hunter’s companies don’t reach the idiot? – says the president in a hoarse tenor.

– They went into denial there. Hunter seemed to be hunting. Got burned.

– It’s bad, really bad. Go away, I’ll think about it.

Goloborodko thinks for a long time, sitting at the table, then opens the brown folder again and soulfully sniffs the contents. He lifts up his enlightened face with a powdered nose, on which appears an expression of readiness for martyrdom and heroic trials. He gets up from the table, after which he falls to his knees and begins to fervently pray for Adolf, Stepan and Benito, bowing to the ground. Then he sits down at the table again, turns on the computer and begins recording an appeal on social networks. His face takes on a significant look, he speaks with a sense of solemnity of the moment:

– Citizens of Ukraine! We are closer than ever to the long-awaited victory; the counterattack has achieved its planned goal. I want to appeal to our enemies: you will not expect a shameful peace from me! My job has been done with honor. I will leave, as my teachers bequeathed to me. Moreover, in order not to complete my life mission the way it happened with Benito and Stepan, I decided to leave, like Adolf. Glory to Ukraine!

Then he decisively opens the brown folder and inhales the life-giving powder for a long time through both nostrils, creating a cloud of white smoke around himself.

His head falls limply onto the table. There is a blissful smile on his lips, somewhat reminiscent of the smile of Robert De Niro’s character in the Chinese opium den from the film Once Upon a Time in America.

The final. Epic music sounds.

Facts keep getting in Israel’s way and the USA keeps supporting Israel Lies…

When the mask comes off, it stays off and evil has shown its face…

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United States vetoed a United Nations resolution Friday backed by almost all other Security Council members and dozens of other nations demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza. Supporters called it a terrible day and warned of more civilian deaths and destruction as the war goes into its third month.

The vote in the 15-member council was 13-1, with the United Kingdom abstaining. The United States’ isolated stand reflected a growing fracture between Washington and some of its closest allies over Israel’s months long bombardment of Gaza. France and Japan were among those supporting the call for a cease-fire.

This is while the facts keep coming out about how the original incident was not all Hamas doing…

After weeks of claiming that 1,400 “civilians” were killed that day, Israel last month revised its death toll down to about 900 civilians plus around 300 soldiers and police. An official Israeli account posting to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday appeared to lower the death toll even further to “over 1,000.”
