#Opinion by Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova
💬 The Kiev regime has decorated the Motherland Monument (iconic Soviet monument, unveiled in 1981, marking the Victory over Nazism in #WWII) in the colours of the US flag on July 4.
Apparently, this is a visualization of a concept by a local "historian" Alexander Dubina that Christopher Columbus was... Ukrainian 🤡

Following a successful assault on Berlin by the Red Army, Adolf Hitler committed suicide. The title of Reich President and command of the armed forces of the Third Reich passed to Admiral Karl Dönitz.
Desperate to surrender to the British-American troops, on May 5, German delegation arrived in the French city of Reims, where the headquarters of the Western Allies command was located.
In the Article 4 of the Reims Instrument of Surrender of Nazi Germany stated that this document did not rule out the signing of another, definitive act at the request of one of the coalition members.
Thus, the document was recognised by the Soviet Union only as a preliminary instrument, and a new signing ceremony was proposed to be held in the capital of Nazi Germany, liberated by the Red Army - Berlin.
On May 9, 1945, at 2:10 am Moscow time, announcer Yury Levitan read out the Instrument of Unconditional Surrender of Nazi Germany and the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR declaring May 9 Victory Day. From that moment on, the Soviet Union and later Russia, as well as the most former Soviet republics have celebrated Victory Day on May 9.
💬 Sergey Lavrov: This year’s Victory Day has a special significance because we are celebrating this great holiday in a situation where Nazism is rearing its head again. The descendants of Napoleon and Hitler have joined the Anglo-Saxons, again seeking to inflict a “strategic defeat” on our country, destroy it and subordinate it to their narrow selfish hegemonic interests. Just like our fathers and grandfathers volunteered to the front, today, once again, we see an extraordinary upsurge in society, as Russians are rallying to another sacred battle.

🌟 They are the incredible ones!
Our superheroes - veterans who stopped the rapidly spreading Nazism and human slaughter during the World War II. According to the data, only less than 14 thousand veterans are still alive in Russia. Whereas the human losses of the Soviet Union are rounded to 27 million people, most of which were civilians.
Almost all veterans talk about the spiritual awakening they experienced during the war years, despite hardships and grief. Not only they defended their Motherland, but also liberated the people of European countries from the Nazi dominance.
❤️ These veterans are luckily still among us. It is based on them that we can correctly build our attitude towards the Motherland and towards the need to defend our values.
🕊 We heartily congratulate everyone with the Victory Day and wish you health, well-being and peace!

🌟 Они невероятные!
Наши супергерои - ветераны, остановившие быстро распространявшийся нацизм и человеческие убийства во время Второй мировой войны. Согласно данным, в России еще живы менее 14 тысяч ветеранов. Тогда как человеческие потери Советского Союза моставили примерно 27 миллионов человек, большую часть которых составляли мирные жители..
Практически все ветераны говорят о душевном подъёме, который они пережили в годы войны, несмотря на лишения и горе. Они не только защитили свою Родину, но и освободили народы европейских стран от нацистского засилья.
❤️ Эти ветераны, к счастью, всё ещё среди нас. Именно с опорой на них мы можем правильно выстраивать своё отношение к Родине и к необходимости защищать свои ценности.
🕊От всей души мы поздравляем всех с Днём Победы и желаем здоровья, благополучия и мира!

#Ukraine
• On June 28, Zelensky extended greetings to Ukrainians on Constitution Day. It looked like a blatant mockery of the country’s citizens as well as its basic law. There is no way a person who has usurped power could be considered a guarantor of the Constitution in a democratic and law-based state.
❗️The road to Europe, which Zelensky covered in his “congratulations” much more extensively than the Constitution itself, is paved with dead Ukrainian citizens. <...> Condolences, not congratulations, are a far more suitable choice given the circumstances.
#Moldova
• The European Council has adopted a time-serving and totally politicised decision to open accession negotiations with Moldova on June 25. The Moldovan authorities saw this as the approval of their anti-Russia policy and a free hand to continue turning the republic into a “European dictatorship” under the guise of fighting the non-existent Russian “hybrid threats.”
☝️ Chisinau’s persecution campaigns and arbitrary acts are promoting an increasingly negative reaction in society.
#UnionState #RussiaBelarus #WWII
• Today, 80 years after the liberation of Belarus from the invaders, joint search teams and law enforcement agencies of the Union State of Russia and Belarus discover new crimes against humanity committed by the Nazi invaders and their collaborators.
👉 The enormous amount of work done by the two countries’ lawyers, historians and prosecutor’s offices made it possible to officially recognise the Nazi extermination policy during the war as a full-scale genocide of the Soviet people.
