🇷🇺🇱🇻 Commentary of the Russian Embassy in Latvia:

"The local authorities continue to mock the memory of the Red Army soldiers who heroically fell in the battles for the liberation of Latvia and the whole Europe from Nazism.

On May 26, the Jekabpils Regional Duma announced its intention to dismantle the memorial to Soviet artillerymen at Rigas Street, 205 (the same one from the pedestal of which in February 2021 the artillery gun was stolen), to exhume and rebury the remains of the Soviet Army officers entombed at this fraternal grave.

We regard this decision as a flagrant and deliberate violation of the bilateral intergovernmental Agreement on the status of burial places of 2007, which prescribes the Latvian Party to protect, maintain and take care of the fraternal graves, but not vice versa.

Article 4 of the Agreement clearly states that the reburial of the remains can be carried out only upon consent of both Parties. The Russian Party did not give its consent to this.

The Embassy has already sent a note of protest to the Latvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, urging it to prevent the wrongful acts of the municipal authorities and ensure strict compliance with international obligations.

We are convinced that there should be no condescending attitude towards such initiatives. We are expecting a clear response from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Latvian Republic, based on conscientious observance of the fundamental principles of international law."

⚠️ According to information received from captured Ukrainian servicemen, militants of nationalist battalions are preparing another provocation with the use of toxic substances in Sumy.

▫️The neo-Nazis plan to shell Russian border territory from a residential area in the city and provoke Russian units to retaliate, after which they will blow up chemical tanks.

📹Foreign journalists are in Sumy to take photographs and video.

▫️This cynical action will soon be used by the Kiev authorities to accuse the Russian Armed Forces of allegedly using chemical weapons and indiscriminate strikes on civilians.

▫️Moreover, while previously in preparation for such provocations the civilian population was withdrawn from the area of planned contamination, now, in order to maximise the resonance, no warning was given to the population.

❗️We warn the "civilized West" as well as the United Nations, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons in advance that the above and other similar provocations about alleged "Russian atrocities" are soon to be widely spread by the Ukrainian authorities through the Western media and in various Internet resources.

🇷🇺🇱🇻 Commentary of the Russian Embassy in Latvia:

"On September 8, 2022, the Latvian Saeima approved amendments to the law "On the Latvian Orthodox Church", which grant it autocephaly.

Riga, in pursuit of the laurels of the "chief fighter against the Russian world," has long ago ceased to perceive the boundaries of the permissible. Aside from the numerous violations of their own legal obligations, which have already become a "byword", the Latvian authorities in a rude and cynical way meddled in the affairs of the church.

Once again, we witnessed the violation by the Latvian authorities of the generally accepted ethical and moral norms, religious canons and their own constitutional law.

We would like to remind that the representatives of the secular authorities possess no canonical right to issue a tomos of autocephaly. It is also the Constitution of the Republic of Latvia which proclaims the principle of the separation between church and state.

As practice shows, national and international law are no longer considered as an argument by the Latvian authorities, who continue to insist that their legislative initiatives correspond to the image of a "law-governed and democratic" state. Now Riga has demonstrated the same disdainful attitude towards the law of religion."

❗️Read excerpts from the statement of Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE Alexander Lukashevich «On ongoing crimes by Ukraine against civilian population with the support of Western alliance of OSCE participating States» (meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council, 22 September 2022)

💬 The #NATO countries, led by the #US 🇺🇸 and #UK 🇬🇧, have ceased to hide their main goal - to weaken, divide and destroy #Russia 🇷🇺 #Ukraine 🇺🇦 is used as a tool for the destruction of Russian statehood. More:

💬 The current situation is a direct result of the actions of the "collective West" in #Ukraine 🇺🇦 , where since 2014 they have nurtured and maintained a bloody puppet regime, the essence of which does not depend on the change of faces of nominal leaders

💬 Russia's 🇷🇺 main goal is not to allow undermining European and global security through the situation in #Ukraine 🇺🇦 , whose inhabitants have been de facto turned into "cannon fodder" by the countries of the #Western alliance

💬 In its confrontation with #Russia 🇷🇺, the #Western alliance does not shun the dirtiest methods. Another staging about some "mass murders" in #Izium is being spun - despite the initial testimonies of journalists and local residents that nothing like this happened

💬 Ukrainian 🇺🇦 formations use 💣 weapons supplied by #NATO countries to shell civilian targets. On September 19, #French 🇫🇷 155-mm self-propelled guns "Caesar" attacked a bus stop in #Donetsk , killing at least 13 people, including 2 children. Where is the reaction of the #OSCE CiO and SG?

💬 The West's indifference to the value of human life in the #DPR and #LPR, in the #Kherson and #Zaporozhie regions is pushing the inhabitants of these regions to take decisive steps to determine their future. #Russia 🇷🇺 will respect their democratic will

💬 #Russia 🇷🇺 has never shut itself off from a mutually respectful dialogue based on equality and mutual consideration of interests. Opportunities for meaningful, result-oriented discussions, including in the #OSCE, still remain

🇷🇺🇱🇻 Commentary of the Russian Embassy in Latvia:

"More than two hundred years of history of the Russian-language education in Latvia has come to an end - on September 29, the Latvian Saeima approved in the final reading the transition of Russian schools into the Latvian language.

The ruling elite of the country once again gained its mercenary-minded goals at the expense of the Latvian younger generation, having denied children the right to a comfortable learning environment. Instead of taking advantage of the country's natural bilingualism, politicians stubbornly continue to fight the "wrong" language, destroying the Russian culture here.

It is a shame that the Latvian authorities are unable to understand that the upbringing of patriots and citizens loyal to Latvia is really hindered not by education in the Russian language, but by the complete disregard for the vital needs and interests of the country's population by its leadership."

‼️Yesterday, Ukraine’s #Zelensky called #NATO for nuclear “preventive strikes” on #Russia. Irresponsible and criminal incitement for world war, deepening nuclear hysteria in the West. He should be brought to accountability instead of being praised at international fora!

❗️The current security crisis is created by politicians who prefer to rant recklessly rather than act responsibly and listen respectfully to other international community members.

💥Following #Zelensky's calls for nuclear strikes against #Russia, a #terroristattack was carried out on the #Crimeanbridge today, killing at least 3 civilians. The bridge was opened in 2018 to overcome the Kyiv regime's inhumane blockade of Crimean inhabitants

❗️Now the leadership of #Ukraine is rejoicing at the terrorist attack, making statements admiring the blast. The State Post Office promises to issue a thematic stamp. The terrorist essence and toxicity of the Kyiv regime are obvious, but the West continues to make "heroes" out of them

🎙 Read excerpts from the statement of Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE Maxim Buyakevich “On terrorist attacks by the Kiev regime against critical infrastructure with the direct support from the Western alliance of the OSCE participating States” (meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council, 13 October 2022)

❗️ The murders in #Kupyansk on October 9 and other facts confirm that there is an organized extermination of the local population from among those who are suspected of being disloyal to the #Kievregime. Where is the reaction of the leadership of the #OSCE and its specialized institutions?

❌ #OSCE Secretary General H.Schmid and the Polish OSCE Chairmanship in a press release dated October 10 supported the actions of the #Kievregime. And this is two days after the terrorist attack on the #Crimeanbridge arranged by the regime, which claimed the lives of innocent civilians

🚫 Representatives of the #NATO countries in the #OSCE also did not condemn a series of terrorist attacks in #Russia, planned in October by the Ukrainian special services. This is very telling about who and what #Russia is actually fighting against, and who dirtyly uses the people of #Ukraine as expendable material and "cannon fodder"

At the 2022 #OSCE Mediterranean Conference in Jordan #Russia stands for promoting co-operation with the OSCE Mediterranean Partners on relevant work across the three dimensions of comprehensive security

#Russia calls for closer interaction among #OSCE pS and Med Partners in the field of climate change focusing on practical issues and taking relevant mitigation and adaptation measures

At the 2022 #OSCE Mediterranean conference in #Jordan #Russia suppors constructive and substantive dialogue on combating human trafficking through comprehensive approach that includes preventing, assisting the victims and ensuring protection

🎙 Read excerpts from the statement of Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE Maxim #Buyakevich “On dangerous provocations by the Kiev regime with the support of the Western alliance of OSCE participating States and on the ongoing crimes by it against the civilian population” (meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council, 27 October 2022)

☢️ At today's meeting of the #OSCE Permanent Council, we shared the information of the Russian Defense Ministry about the preparation by the #Kievregime of a provocation with the use of a "dirty bomb"

☝️ The hysterical reaction of Ukrainian and Western opponents spoke for itself: For them, Zelensky’s nuclear ambitions are also a tool to destabilize regional security by creating new threats to #Ukraine's neighbors

❗️ The use of a "dirty bomb" in current events in #Ukraine can only be beneficial for foreign handlers of the #Kievregime. They are looking for a pretext to openly interfere militarily with #NATO forces

⚡️ Threats to use #NATO's military potential against #Russia have become noticeably more frequent - from EU top diplomat J.Borrell to American generals and others. This is a dangerous "playing with fire" which escalates tensions

🤚 At the meeting of the #OSCE Permanent Council on October 27, Russia called on the #Kievregime's handlers in the West to keep it from dangerous provocations and terrorist acts

🇷🇺🇱🇻 Commentary of the Russian Embassy in Latvia:

"Right after the celebration of the Independence Day of Latvia, residents of Sesava in the Jelgava region have discovered another act of vandalism committed on a fraternal military burial located in this settlement – the inscription "Glory to the Heroes" in Russian and Latvian has been torn off from the memorial wall.

The perpetrators of this heinous crime hardly deserve to be named people. It is obviously not worth appealing to their conscience as well as moral values - such acts bring about in the society nothing but hatred and anger.

Such cases of mockery of the memory of the fallen are the result of outright connivance on the part of the Latvian authorities, who themselves are fighting against the symbols of the memorial heritage, thus breeding a sense of impunity and permissiveness in some circles. Apparently, this is the key to successful building of a "united political nation", in the view of the authors of this idea."
