🎙 President Vladimir Putin answered questions from journalist Pavel Zarubin (February 14, 2024)
Key talking points:
❗️ We have been constantly deceived about NATO’s non-expansion to the east. NATO proceeded to expand five times, completely deceiving us.
🔹 We did not initiate this war; rather, we are striving to end it. During the first phase, we tried to achieve this through peaceful means, specifically, through the Minsk agreements. However, it became apparent that we had been given the runaround once again. Both the former German Chancellor and the former President of France admitted and publicly stated that they had never intended to honour the agreements.
🔹 German Foreign Minister and people like her, are, of course, hostile towards Russia. In my opinion, she is also hostile towards her own country because it is hard to imagine such a high-ranking politician treating the economic interests of her country and people with such disdain.
🔹 Exceptionalism of certain nations, as compared to others, is found in many countries these days. This is how Nazism started. Now that this has become so widespread, it would be appropriate to conduct this anti-fascist and anti-Nazi propaganda and work at the same global level.
🔹 I believe that there is absolutely no point in NATO. Its only purpose is to serve as a tool of US foreign policy. If the United States considers this tool no longer necessary, that is their decision.

Russian Foreign Ministry statement on another crime of the Kiev regime
❗️The criminal Kiev regime keeps showcasing its neo-Nazi nature to the world.
In broad daylight on February 15, the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a massive strike on the civilian districts of Belogrod. According to the latest data, 7 people died🩸, including one child. 19 citizens were injured, four of whom are children. Apartment buildings, an industrial plant, cars, and a store were damaged. This action had no military significance.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, on the same day, the air defense system destroyed 14 Ukrainian Vampire MLRS shells over the territory of the Belgorod region.
❌The Russian Foreign Ministry strongly condemns this heinous crime against civilians and civilian infrastructure. This will be properly investigated and those responsible will be severely punished.
It is obvious that the Kiev Nazis, suffering failure after failure out of fear, are barbarously taking it out on ordinary people. The current terrorist attack by the Ukrobanderites has once again emphasized the criminal role of the “collective West” led by the United States, further pumping the fascist regime with deadly weapons, which it turns against innocent civilians.
❗️We call on the international community to condemn this outrageous criminal act. We intend to bring this issue up for discussion the UN Security Council and other international structures.

💬 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:
The instant reaction of the NATO leaders to the news of Alexey Navalny's demise in the form of direct accusations against Russia is self-exposing.
There is no forensic medical examination data available, yet the West has already made & voiced its "conclusions"

🔍 On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the unconstitutional coup d’etat in Ukraine here are some more interesting facts regarding its history.
☑️Excerpts from Kirill Shevchenko's article "From Galician Rus' to Western Ukraine":
"As noted by American researcher John Armstrong, the Ukrainian nationalism is distinguished from other varieties of "integral nationalisms" by a greater degree of totalitarianism, irrational mysticism, a hypertrophic cult of violence, war and terror, as well as a tendency to the imaginary and the far-fetched.
In 1904, prominent representative of the Galician-Russian movement Osip Monchalovsky fiercely described the Ukrainian nationalism as "a betrayal of the Russian language and culture that have been developed over centuries, a self-transformation into intertribal misfits, in the rag for Polish and German boots...; a denial of the indigenous origins of their nation." Notably, a prominent Czech politician and public figure, Karl Kramarz, similarly characterized the Ukrainian movement, emphasizing that in Austria-Hungary Ukrainian politicians from Galicia acted as a willing tool of Vienna and Berlin. <...>
Whereas the activists of the Ukrainian movement sought to prove the separate existence of the Great Russians and Ukrainians as early as the Kievan Rus' era, trying to separate them in Old Russian history and literature, the Galician-Russian thinkers proceeded from the idea of the original unity of all Russian lands."
