⚡️ #Opinion by Maria Zakharova, Russian MFA Spokeswoman

Ukrainian FM Kuleba: “Russian FM Lavrov spreads disinfo by falsely alleging Ukraine wants to restore its nuclear arsenal. Once again: This is a cynical, blatant lie by Russia who itself fires at nuclear facilities in Ukraine. Safe zones must be established around them to prevent disaster in Europe.”

💬 #Zakharova: Just look at what kind of turncoats they are! Simply read their statements, read what the Ukrainian leadership has been saying publicly. There was also more said, behind the scenes.

This is how it goes:

💬 Secretary of the National Security Council Alexander Turchinov, April 2018:
“With all these events behind us, we can draw a conclusion that few will like. Giving up nuclear weapons was our historical mistake. The security guarantees are not even worth the paper on which they were written.”

💬 Head of the Servant of the People parliamentary group Davyd Arakhamia, July 29, 2021:
“I think that Kravchuk made a fatal mistake by getting rid of nuclear weapons after signing a meaningless memorandum. Basically, this mistake has been haunting us ever since. It dwarfs all the other mistakes by all other presidents. Had we been a nuclear power, everyone would have talked to us and sought to reach agreements in a different manner.”

💬 President Vladimir Zelensky, February 19, 2022:
“Since 2014, Ukraine has made three attempts to convene consultations of guarantor countries under the Budapest Memorandum. All three failed. Today, Ukraine is making its fourth attempt, which is my first attempt as President. Make no mistake, this is the last try for me, and for Ukraine. I am seeking to initiate consultations under the Budapest Memorandum, and instructed the Foreign Minister to convene the them. If they do not take place yet again or do not result in security guarantees for our state, Ukraine will have the right to view the Budapest Memorandum as a dead letter, which calls into question the entire package of decisions adopted in 1994.”

On the threshold of changes

By Oleg Karpovich and Mikhail Troyansky Pro-Rectors at the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Diplomatic Academy

From the first minute, the information war accompanying the Russian Federation’s special military operation in Ukraine has bred distorted and far-fetched interpretations of the Russian party’s goals and motives, with global media outlets, particularly the Western media, circulating them. For many months and even years, Moscow tried to inform the international public at large about the real-life situation and Russia’s concerns. However, these attempts were deliberately ignored. Efforts to demonise Russia have become ridiculous in the past few days, with the aim of replacing the facts of the matter with emotions and propaganda clichés.

So, what was the real cause of the special military operation?

First of all, the crisis around Donbass exacerbated the situation. For many years, Kiev brought this crisis to a boiling point by sabotaging the Minsk agreements <...> Western countries, including France and Germany, ignored Kiev’s ostentatious reluctance to follow in the wake of the peace process, year after year. <...> Moreover, Kiev beefed up its military potential along the line of contact to the maximum possible extent.

Second, throughout Ukraine, and especially in the country’s southeastern areas, the Ukrainian authorities implemented their official line aimed at oppressing the Russian-speaking population and any opponents of the country’s linguistic and ideological unification. In 2014, dozens of activists from pro-Russian movements were eliminated in Kharkov, Odessa, Dnepropetrovsk and some other cities. <...>

Read in full

The Ukrainian authorities had every opportunity to prevent a dramatic scenario, fraught with the sufferings of civilians, but they chose the road of confrontation. This confrontation must end as soon as possible, and this is now the only condition for de-escalating the protracted and explosive crisis around Ukraine.

✍️ Excerpts from the article by the Russian Foreign Ministry Diplomatic Academy’s Vice-Chancellors Oleg Karpovich and Mikhail Troyansky «Serbian scenario for Russia?»:

💬 For many people in Russia, the campaign to “cancel” our country, which resulted in an unprecedented rampage of banal Russophobia, came as an unexpected shock. Having introduced the principle of collective responsibility for all Russians in retaliation for Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine, it may appear that the West has crossed the boundaries of ethics and common sense.

👉 In search of an analogy, one can go back to the early 1990s. Back then, Yugoslavia faced this kind of smear campaign for the first time. Its government “dared” to fight for the country’s territorial integrity.

<...>

❗️ A cynical attempt to use psychological warfare, blackmail and banal intimidation to force the citizens of Russia to oppose their state and their people will most likely have the completely opposite effect.

⚡️ #Opinion by Maria Zakharova:

What an amazing piece of American investigative reporting we have here.

It reveals that Kiev and its Western patrons have been manipulating the public opinion on a mind-blowing scale.

It turns out that the image cultivated by all Western media for a month now by casting Ukraine as a victim results from a sophisticated and systematic effort by very serious people, probably for a lot of money.

First, the jokes about the communication guidelines turned out to be true. They do exist with the best Western PR agencies drafting key messages and what words must be used and when. They make video compilations for broadcasts and issue recommendations on sources. There is a direct ban on using “unverified media,” i.e., those that were not approved in the West.

Yaroslav Turbil is described as a key figure of the Ukrainian propaganda machine. A native of Kiev, he is linked to US intelligence and is head of Ukraine.UA, a website operated by the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry that often serves as a source of planted propaganda stories.

The investigative journalists analysed these propaganda materials and concluded that the Ukrainian propagandists seek to spin various topics like the Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant or the no-fly zone in Ukraine and serve them to a network of Western PR services, including the British PR Network and the US lobby groups like SKDKnickerbocker, Yorktown Solutions and Your Global Strategy. Those, in turn, have the experience of working with the Western media to deliver the right message to the Western audiences.

Judging by this investigation, those who masterminded this approach have partners, including Novaya Gazeta, Meduza, Dozhd, Mediazona and Russian-language services of the Western media such as the BBC.

This is a rigorous and differentiated effort. There are memes for the younger audience and serious political analysis for experts.

The authors of the investigation did not hide the mind-blowing scale of this system, which includes over 150 entities and major figures for communicating the Ukrainian vision of the conflict to the entire world.

Who pays for all this? This is not an easy question, but at least part of the PR effort is paid for by government subsidies allocated by the UK, the US and the Czech Republic, as well as entities belonging to billionaire George Soros, incredible as this may sound.

This giant squid has penetrated with its tentacles every TV set, website of major Western media and every newspaper to cultivate a worldview that is simple and clear. The creators of this mechanism couldn’t care less that it is at odds with reality.

The world has not seen a disinformation campaign of this kind since the cult of the Caesars.

❗️ The young are the target audience of the provocation in Bucha

By Oleg Karpovich, Pro-Rector of the Foreign Ministry’s Diplomatic Academy

A generational shift is underway among Western politicians.

The Economist, a mouthpiece of radical liberalism, recently published the results of a poll of the views of US citizens on the events in Ukraine. The editorial board was stunned by the outcome: half of Americans under 30 are not interested in who wins the conflict and a mere 47 percent of them still believe the propaganda myth of “the deliberate targeting of Ukrainian civilians by Russian forces.” Slightly more, 56 percent, sympathise with Ukraine to some extent, but this is still 36 points lower than for respondents over 30. Sociologists have also discovered a strong generational divide in views of the current crisis in France and Britain.

It appears that several months of mass brainwashing of the population in the West with anti-Russia clichés and disinformation failed to produce the desired effect. The most active and passionate segment of society – or, in simple terms, those to whom the future belongs – refuse to see Russia as an outright enemy and an absolute evil. This is surely concerning to the powers that be.

The generational shift in US and European politics may come very quickly. Some figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Marion Marechal-Le Pen broke into the political firmament at fairly young age. There is also Sebastian Kurz who became foreign minister at 27 and chancellor at 31. More wunderkinds are on the way. The so-called Millennials are rapidly strengthening positions thanks to their peers’ protest activities, and this trend will only accelerate.

<...>

The provocation in Bucha is designed not so much for older people, who already believe passionately in Russia’s evil, as for the younger generation. It is no accident that photos and videos from the scene flooded social media in the first minutes of this information campaign. The goals of the provocation are simple: to take the legs out from under all those who doubt the correctness of the Western “crusade” against Russia, to convince young Americans and Europeans to forget about the crimes of Ukrainian neo-Nazi, and to bury forever the hopes for constructive dialogue. Nobody will even think about ending the senseless sanctions on our country.

❗️ The perpetrators of this incident obviously smelled blood (both figuratively and literally) and are not going to stop. New discoveries and accusations are bound to follow. After all, this is no longer a psychological war against Russia, where over 80 percent of the population support President Vladimir Putin’s course of action and the chances of rocking the boat are close to zero. This is a war for the hearts and minds of people in Western countries. In launching this economic onslaught against Moscow, Washington and Brussels simply forgot to ask their opinion. However elaborate or cynical the next provocations may be, though, they will not change the general dynamics – time is not on the side of Biden and his allies. It is just a pity that the lives and fates of ordinary Ukrainians are again being used as a bargaining chip in this high-stakes game.

🎙 #Opinion by Maria Zakharova:

💬 Foreign Minister of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba has called on scholars throughout the world to investigate the causes that have led to the atrocities in Bucha: “For many years, Russian political elites and propaganda have been inciting hatred, dehumanising Ukrainians, nurturing Russian superiority, and laying ground for these atrocities. I encourage scholars around the globe to research what led to Bucha.”

Kuleba’s call has been echoed by Alexey Arestovich, an adviser to President Zelensky, who wrote: “So, these are the buttons we need to press. Incite concern with a statement and after that, evoke a feeling of guilt: ‘While the boys are out there in the trenches, you are having a good time in Kiev nightclubs, you bastards!’ Or say: ‘You are not giving money to the army.’ And then press the button of security needs. After that, make the persons in question ‘part of a significant group’ and reward them. The first set of buttons is to raise concern, and the second group is aimed at rewarding them and leading them to where we want them to be. In other words, first we scare them silly, and then we show them a way out, foster their expectations and tell them what they must do, and that after that everything will be great. We are nurturing their expectations and a feeling of being part of specific groups: ‘We are brothers,’ ‘We are Ukrainians,’ ‘We have repelled a terrible Russian onslaught, which means that there is nothing to fear,’ ‘Ukraine is respected throughout the world,’ ‘Ukrainians are the best soldiers, they will fight to the bitter end,’ ‘We won’t be deceived.’ Being part of a significant group, feeling that they are part of the significant group that is working to solve the problem. ‘Those who are on Maidan are the good guys.’ And this leads us to a feeling of pride and self-praise: ‘Ukrainians are the best soldiers in the world, we can defeat anyone.’ And then they are offered a reward, that is, they must be shown what will happen if they do this or that.”

This is how the Ukrainian fighters who staged the criminal provocation in Bucha were trained. Next time Kuleba should not appeal to “scholars around the globe” but to Alexey Arestovich, “a politician, intelligence officer, blogger, political and military columnist, actor, organiser of psychological seminars and trainings and a charity fund for psychological support to the military” who fought against people in Donbass in 2014-2017. This is how he is described on Wikipedia. Arestovich will tell Kuleba how cyborgs were created in Ukraine.

Medvedchuk’s spouse Oksana Marchenko appealed to the British government and people: “I appeal to the relatives and friends of Aiden Eslin and Sean Pinner: Angela Eslin, Nathan and Shannon Wood, Derby and Evan Pinner. It's in your power to ask the Prime Minister of your country, Boris Johnson, to influence the Ukrainian leadership and achieve the release of Aiden and Sean by exchanging them for the Ukrainian opposition politician detained by the Kiev authorities, my husband Viktor Medvedchuk.”

💬 Maria Zakharova: UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who recently went to Kiev, must be aware of the developments with Her Majesty’s subjects. He is sure to reply, isn’t he?

Meanwhile, Liz Truss might take the opportunity to reveal what exactly the British nationals were doing there [in Mariupol, with Neo-Nazis] anyway.

💬 Boris Johnson has urged the Russian government to treat the Briton detained in Mariupol while fighting on the side of the Ukrainian government forces “humanely and compassionately.”

Here is what we have to say in this respect.

Boris, we know that you personally and your Government have disavowed the British subjects who have fallen victim to British propaganda and went to Ukraine as mercenaries to kill people there.

Don’t pretend to be worried. You are utterly unconcerned about the fate of Britons in trouble. They didn’t drink champagne with you at Downing Street, and so they can wait for your protection till kingdom come.

I would like to tell the following to those Britons who are concerned about their compatriots: Don’t worry, Russia is taking care of them. They are given food and drink, as well as any other assistance they may need, just as the other foreigners who have surrendered or have been detained.

Unlike the Ukrainian fighters who brutally kill prisoners and torture civilians, the Russian Armed Forces are committed to humanitarian law. If there were no media censorship in Britain, everyone there would know this.

At the same time, we urge the British authorities to treat the citizens of Ukraine “humanely and compassionately,” as Boris Johnson said, by stopping the delivery of weapons to Ukraine. The more weapons London is sending to Ukraine, the more citizens of Ukraine die as a result. But the BBC will never tell Britons about that.

💬 Gonzalo Lira, a video blogger, author and famous film director and a citizen of Chile and the United States, has not been in contact since April 15 after he went missing in Kharkov. He was where the action was, actively commenting on the events in Ukraine, first in Kiev and later in Kharkov. He honestly and professionally reported about the causes of the crisis and the ongoing outrages, including the Nazis’ atrocities. His video reports have helped many people in the West see the truth. The far-right radicals hated what he did and he started receiving threats.

The liberal queers and “honest” Western journalists, which is often one and the same, echoed the neo-Nazis’ threats. And now these “members of the public” are merrily discussing Gonzalo’s disappearance and are openly threatening their colleagues who dare to speak out openly about the events in Ukraine without mincing words.

‘Patrick [Lancaster], you next,” tweeted a transgender journalist from Las Vegas, who is reporting from Kharkov and often takes photos with the thugs from the so-called territorial defence forces.

They are doing their best to cancel and cross out those who disagree with them.

Sergey Korotkikh, aka Botsman, a chieftain of the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion, has hinted that his neo-Nazi confederates could be involved in Gonzalo’s disappearance: “It is ironic that Gonzalo Lira, a Chilean, has been captured by the man whose alias is Chile. Anyway, hope to see a beheading video on Telegram soon.” How do you like that? Incidentally, Chile is one of those who murdered and tortured Russian servicemen.

The tweet has been deleted, because Lira is a US citizen, but nothing can be deleted from the internet without a trace.

This is fresh proof that the cannibalistic liberal logic is so closely interconnected with the Nazi ideology that it is sometimes impossible to tell which is which. This is indicative.

P.S. We sincerely hope that the media mayhem raised by Azov Nazis and Western propagandists is nothing more than theatrics and that Gonzalo and his family are all well.

Key points

🔹 The report published by the Russian Ministry of Defence today clearly proves that Washington, in close coordination with its NATO partners, has reached the final stage of setting up provocations in Ukraine aimed at convincing the international community that “Russia has been using weapons-grade poisonous substances and biological agents.”

🔹 Their rationale is obvious: the shocking details of the illegal cooperation between the United States and the Ukrainian administration which still remains in power in making bacteriological weapons have been revealed to the world. The realisation that their criminal activities would inevitably be exposed was so patently clear that Washington began to prepare in advance:

👉 Shaped public opinion
👉 Picked the contractors
👉 Worked to influence international organisations

🔹 The Americans and their partners in Europe take no notice of the fact that Russia has had no chemical weapons at all for five years – since September 27, 2017, and this has been verified by the OPCW. The Ukrainians, aided by NATO specialists, are to remedy this flaw in the American plans crudely enough: just as corrupt police officers plant a weapon with prints on an innocent suspect, Washington and Kiev are going to plant chemical weapons at the Russian Armed Forces’ positions in Ukraine.

👉 This is more than serious. Clearly, the original US plan was to step up economic pressure on Russia to make it reconsider its legitimate security interests. That didn’t work. Now the US is going to use WMD; in fact, this is a game that crosses the red line. If this happens, the number of victims will be incalculable. Each of them will be on the conscience of the American strategists sitting in the White House, the State Department and the Pentagon, and on the conscience of their puppets in Kiev, if they still have any left.

Nuclear DisInfo (Read in full)

Mechanisms for information attacks with a new thesis that target the public space have been launched in the West at the highest level in a transboundary and trans-format manner. The premise is primitive and completely horrifying: the Russians are threatening a nuclear war, and the Russians are waving the nuclear stick.

⁉️ Do I even need to say that this thesis is absolutely incorrect and false? Apparently, I do.

They are pushing this exact thesis because it plays on basic human fears, the experience of the older generation, which throughout the second half of the 20th century was bracing for the Third World War against global communism, and Western youth, for which their respective governments have come up with a new mechanism called “cancel culture” (cancelling everything Russian this time). Moreover, the West absolutely does not care what Moscow really says, and the meaning of words is distorted and outwardly perverted.

Let’s consider the specifics.

Two days ago, in his answer to a question by Dimitri Simes during an interview, Sergey Lavrov said literally the following 👉 full quote

What are the takeaways?

1. It was Russia that, with great difficulty, convinced the United States during lengthy talks to reaffirm the Gorbachev-Reagan formula that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.

2. It was Russia that persuaded the group of five nuclear nations to adopt a statement with the same content.

3. There are risks; they should not be blown out of proportion or underestimated.

We did everything possible to prevent a nuclear war, to create all the necessary obstacles on the way to slipping into this scenario (fortunately, they justified themselves during the Cold War and are working today), because we understand the real risks and threats posed by irresponsible behaviour in this area. We cannot allow the very thought of a nuclear war.

Now acting in the worst traditions of disinformation, Western officials are feeding the media, in a coordinated effort, fake news about Moscow’s alleged nuclear threats. The foreign ministries from the NATO countries started convincing the people in their countries that the Russians were “rattling their weapons.”

<...>

Notice how clumsy this was in terms of media work. First, all the put-up quotes against our country were repeated by the journalist, and then they were again mentioned by Ned Price. A presentation designed for a not too sophisticated public. No one even paid attention to what the Foreign Minister said about the risks and Russia’s attempts to prevent the unthinkable.

It’s unthinkable to us, but, mindful of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it is, unfortunately, possible for our colleagues from overseas.

The next day, the media started mass brainwashing. The British tabloids (the Daily Mail and others) and the high-quality analytical US press, French television and German tabloid magazines started talking with one voice that Moscow was threatening with a Third World Nuclear War. And this was already being discussed in Europe; French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said that the Russian Foreign Minister’s words were the “rhetoric of intimidation.”

I would like to ask this Frenchman whether he at least saw what Sergey Lavrov said? We have translated the interview.

Our country is against any nuclear war, and this is exactly what the Russian Minister said, and this is what guides our diplomacy in its work.

Could it be that the Western capitals read the interviews as presented by the Western media? This is the only thing that can justify their words. To avoid that, one should simply DON'T turn off alternative sources of information, and listen to what Russia has to say close to the original text, rather than as interpreted by your media under NATO guidelines.

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova:

💬 Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby is losing his nerve. He is being rude, insulting, and troublesome. He said some nonsense about the Russian President.

Among other gibberish, he said it was “hard to look at what Russian forces are doing in Ukraine.” Really? How hard can it be for an American rear admiral to look at anything?

Kirby has an impressive service record: 28 years in the Navy (1986-2015), including as Chief of Navy Information. This means he was among the senior US officers who received all of the Pentagon’s information, so he was aware of literally everything. He knew about depleted uranium in Yugoslavia and about the Iraq War Logs, as they now call a large body of documents testifying to war crimes committed by US military personnel in Iraq.

We learned about all this thanks to Wikileaks and its creators, who are being destroyed by Kirby’s colleagues, but John read these reports every day: about thousands and thousands of civilians who died in Iraqi and Syrian villages from the atrocities of the American troops. Considering the level of the US military’s equipment, there is no doubt that he saw photographs and video footage. I wonder, was it difficult for him to watch those inhuman spectacles?

But it’s different now. I can see 2️⃣ reasons for that.

First, his agency was caught engaging in illegal activities: developing biological weapons in Ukraine. Everyone would start to lose their nerve, considering the US international obligations.

Second, all of this is happening at the same time as the political team is leaving the White House. Everyone is fleeing. According to US media, the outflow of high-ranking officials from the White House has started. The reason given by experts in the United States is pervasive pessimism due to the lack of trust in the Administration and Biden personally.

If the control over Congress goes to the Republicans, these guys won’t know what hit them. Kirby will be the first to get dragged through public hearings. No, it will be Nuland first. Then Kirby.

I have already written about the sudden desire of Daleep Singh, Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economics in the President’s Administration, the architect of anti-Russian sanctions, to take a break from his hard work.

☝️ It turns out many of them are feeling the strain of the past year.

According to US media, Senior Advisor to the President, Director of the Office of Public Engagement Cedric Richmond is about to retire; National Climate Advisor Gina McCarthy, Deputy White House Communications Director Pili Tobar, and Chief of Staff for the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate Dan Feldman are all planning to retire, too.

John Kerry is considering leaving the ship by the end of the year, according to the same American media. But I believe in him. It would be dishonourable to leave climate and Biden at a moment like this.

I don’t even want to write about what’s going on in the team of US Vice President Kamala Harris. It’s an exodus. Chiefs of staff and the press service will follow the lead of dozens of key staff members who have already left.

❗️ So what’s hard for Kirby is to look at his own future, not at the developments in Ukraine.
