đź“‚ Another report from the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been published on the situation of Russian citizens and compatriots in foreign countries.
The topic of protecting their rights abroad is one of the priorities in the work of the Ministry. Statistics, unfortunately, confirm that the state of affairs in this area still shows no signs of improvement and, thanks to the efforts of the countries of the “collective West,” maintains negative development trends .
❗️ The Russophobic attitude and the West’s encouragement of the neo-Nazi regime in Kiev gave a powerful incentive to the efforts of Poland, the Baltic countries, Ukraine and other states to strengthen, under the pretext of “condemning Russian aggression,” the fight against monuments and memorials in honor of Red Army soldiers who died in the battles for the liberation of Europe from Nazism . In addition, the rewriting of history and the whitewashing of collaboration continue.
👉 Such actions are given attention not only in this report, but also in the recently published regular report of the Ministry on the manifestations of the glorification of Nazism in the world.
Along with this, in a number of countries (primarily in the Baltic states, the USA, Canada and Ukraine), figures of the Russian-speaking community who want to maintain cultural, linguistic and historical ties with Russia are subject to pressure and repression from the authorities; speaking in favor of building constructive relations with our country, as well as defending the need to preserve genuine historical memory.
🇷🇺 Russia will continue to monitor the development of the situation and record data on discriminatory manifestations that have taken place in foreign countries in order to draw the attention of the leadership of these countries – both in bilateral and multilateral formats – to such offenses and demand that they fulfill their international legal obligations in relation to compatriots.
