Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s address to participants in the No Statute of Limitations international forum (October 24, 2023)
* * *
77 years ago, on October 1, 1946, the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg delivered a historic verdict, condemning the main Nazi war criminals and legally securing the defeat of the Hitler regime. This truly epoch-making event rightfully went down in history as the Trial of Nations. The Nuremberg trials opened a new page in the development of international law. The foundation of the modern system of international criminal justice was laid then.
The Tribunal established that the Nazi atrocities were on a scale previously unknown in history. War crimes and crimes against humanity were systematically committed, including against the civilian population. Those Nazi organisations that systematically developed and implemented these misanthropic plans are forever outlawed.

☦️ Today Russian Orthodox Christians celebrate the Epiphany also known as the Baptism of the Lord Jesus Christ.
All across Russia the celebration of Epiphany starts from Midnight when people dug holes on frozen lakes and rivers. Sometimes, such holes are shaped in a cross and priests lead the blessing and procession.
🙏 Russians believe that taking a plunge in this icy water is healthy and cleanse one’s spirit and soul. The ritual is believed to wash away sins from the previous year.
❄️ Although the temperature can drop as low as minus 30 degree Celsius, it doesn’t stop anybody to participate in the plunge. Any water source on epiphany day is believed to be blessed.
Some drink the water that was blessed on that day when they get ill, some drink it during the bad times.
💧Plunging into the water is not always for a religious reason. The Epiphany day is also a Russian folk holiday, everyone can participate regardless of their religious affiliation. Many dip into the water for health reasons, others to test their strength.
Happy Epiphany Day!

🗓️ #OTD in 1883 the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow was consecrated. It is currently known as one of the tallest orthodox temples in the world.
⛪️The cathedral was commissioned by Tsar Alexander I on December 25, 1812, following the defeat and withdrawal of Napoleon's troops from Russia. The Tsar proclaimed the cathedral a monument of gratitude for the intervention of "Divine Providence for saving Russia" from doom, and as a memorial to the sacrifices of the Russian people.
However it was not opened until 70 years later when Alexander I's grandson was-ascending the throne. Russian composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky's"1812 Overture" was written with the cathedral's completion in mind, but it was premiered in August 1882 in a tent outside the unfinished church.
In 1931 the cathedral was demolished as part of Moscow reconstruction plan and in 1994-1999 rebuilt.
