🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview with the Bosnian Serbian TV and radio company Radio Televizija Republike Srpske
📍 Moscow, June 4, 2022
📰 READ IN FULL
Key points:
🔹 The standard of living in Europe is declining, inflation is on the rise and economic growth is waning. The new poor have become a fact of life. People are impacted by multiple problems, including higher prices. Many are in danger of becoming destitute. Despite this, tens of billions of dollars and euros are being used to arm Ukraine.
🔹 Ukraine is a bargaining chip and a tool that is manipulated primarily by the United States and Great Britain - an Anglo-Saxon team now heading the West.
🔹 The West prohibits Ukraine to negotiate.
🔹 As a reminder, there was no referendum in Kosovo, but there was one in Crimea, which was attended by multiple foreign observers, albeit representing not nation states, but reputable civil bodies, honest people who wanted to see everything with their own eyes.

✉️ Vladimir Putin sent greetings to participants, organizers and guests of the 25th St Petersburg International Economic Forum:
🔷 The Forum’s anniversary is taking place at a difficult time for the entire international community. The mistakes of Western countries in economic policy over many years and illegitimate sanctions have led to a wave of global inflation, the disruption of usual supply chains, and a sharp increase in poverty and food shortages.
🔷 I am confident that for Russia the 2020s will become a period when the country strengthens its economic sovereignty, which involves the accelerated development of its infrastructure and technological base, qualitative upgrades in the level of training for specialists, as well as the establishment of an independent and efficient financial system. In addition, the Russian economy will increasingly rely on private initiatives and, of course, will remain committed to transparency and broad international cooperation.

🎙 Russia’s President Vladimir Putin in an interview with Rossyia 1 TV channel:
💬 We are seeing attempts to place the responsibility on Russia for developments in the global food market and the growing problems there. I must say that this is another attempt to pin the blame on someone else.
First, the situation with the global food market did not become worse yesterday or even with the launch of Russia’s special military operation. The situation took a downturn in February 2020 during the efforts to counter the pandemic when the global economy was down and had to be revived.
<…>
The second reason was European countries’ short-sighted policies, and above all, the European Commission’s policy in regard to energy.

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova:
💬 How many times do we have to explain who is responsible for the unfolding tragedy in the vegetable oil and grain markets? Still, the talking (not thinking) heads in Europe go through the same song and dance every day. Josep Borrell on Twitter once again blamed the global food crisis on “Russian missiles.” Who on earth writes this nonsense for him?
Once again. In lay terms. The sanctions against the Russian Federation have dealt a serious blow to the global economy, which had only just begun to gradually recover from the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The sanctions disrupted existing production, supply and logistics chains, and the payments system for our companies. We have a product – grain – while buyers have the money and the desire to buy it. But sanctions are preventing this from happening in a very simple way, both physically (transporting grain) and financially (paying for it).
This situation has harmed everyone. Disrupted supplies and payments have led to a global food shortage, contributed to a further increase in prices, and threatened global food security. No transactions mean decreased activity, and that combined with growing demand makes prices go up.
And yet, despite the objective transport and logistics difficulties, we remain global market participants in good standing. We fulfill and will continue to fulfill our obligations under international contracts regarding the export of grain, fertiliser, energy commodities and other critical products.
Unlike Europe, we are concerned about the unfolding food crisis. Western experts – and even more so the leaders of developing countries – understand the importance of Russian supplies of socially significant goods, including food, for the socioeconomic development of the countries of Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East.
This is a flagrant Western hypocrisy.
Russia – out of humanitarian considerations – wants to ensure that Ukraine can provide itself with grain, including for planting. And what is the West doing? It is taking Ukrainian grain away by the truckload, leaving the Ukrainian population to struggle with the coming shortage. The West's actions undermine food security not only in Africa, but in Ukraine as well.
It seems that the vaunted expertise and intellectual capacity of our colleagues in Europe and America are now being used in the service of propaganda. Nothing too fancy, but they are expanding colossal energy to indoctrinate their population and convince them that the Russians are to blame. No other issues are discussed anymore, not even the economy or infrastructure. Indeed, why solve problems with food, electricity prices, their own inflation or other issues, including cybersecurity, space exploration safety, etc., when every problem can be blamed on the Russians?

I shall love it all the time.

#DebunkingMyths
❌ Myth: Russia is using energy supplies for political purposes.
✅ Faсts: It is the EU which, by imposing or planning to impose further unilateral sanctions against Russian energy supplies, is politicizing the energy sphere, attempting to use interdependences between energy consumers and suppliers as an instrument of political pressure, while damaging its own economy and the well-being of its citizens and aggravating what is already a precarious situation in the global energy markets.
Unfounded allegations that Moscow is using energy supplies for political aims are part and parcel of the fact-twisting information warfare unleashed by the EU and the US, the latter seeking to increase its LNG exports to the EU.

🔎 RIA Novosti have launched a new special project - a journalistic investigation “Joint. Drug War of Ukraine Against Russia".
The project presents hard evidence of the hybrid war launched by Kiev against our country 8 years ago with the main goal to “drown the Russians in drugs”.
📰 Just a small excerpt:
The Interior Ministry’s Centre for Information and Analysis has reported an annual increase in the trafficking of synthetic drugs in our country, from 5 percent of the market in 2014 to 60 percent in 2021.
Security services officers told RIA Novosti that Ukrainians set up laboratories in border regions to smuggle drugs into Russia or organise their manufacturing and sale in Russia.
In 2019, 62 kg of drugs were confiscated in the Belgorod Region. The figure increased nearly nine-fold, to 534 kg, in 2020. The figure doubled in 2021, when security services confiscated 1,066 kg.
