Russian Embassy has hosted yet another Russian Movie Night event
🎬 Participants of the event were introduced to the iconic Soviet war drama ‘Only ‘Old Men’ Are Going Into Battle.’
🗣 Ambassador of Russia to South Africa H.E. Mr. Ilya Rogachev opened the event with a brief review of history of the Battle and the movie’s artistic features.
‘Essentially, the film is based on true events of the Great Patriotic War, which took place in different aviation units of the Soviet Air Force. The director used the method of artistic synthesis, bringing those events together in one movie,’ Ilya Rogachev said.
The Battle of the Dnieper screened in the movie took place in August – December of 1943. This major campaign of WW2 consisted of several strategic operations and involved over 4 million participants from both sides, As a result of the 4-months battle, almost entire left-bank Ukraine was recovered from Nazi invaders.

🎙 Ambassador of Russia to South Africa H.E. Mr Ilya Rogachev in an interview with BRICS Africa Channel:
💬 All talks and negotiations on the basis of the infamous Zelensky ‘peace plan’ have no future, because Russia will never accept an outcome of a negotiation process in which it does not participate.

What will be the endgame in Ukraine?

➡️Key takeaways:
🔸The situation on the battlefield is growing worse for Ukraine and its Western allies amid the failed ‘counter-offensive’ and Russia’s resilience to sanctions pressure
🔸The collective West won’t stop supporting the Kiev regime because “the failure in Ukraine could be the beginning of the end of its golden age” (Polish Prime Minister Morawiecki)
🔸Some European officials started talking about NATO’s direct interference in Ukraine conflict. Many reckless politicians in the West really wish to go to war against Russia, hoping to achieve a military victory at least that way
❗In case of the West sending troops to Ukraine, we would need to talk not about the probability, but about the inevitability of a direct conflict between NATO and Russia.
🔸Who would benefit from a new war of Europe against Russia? US-based global companies already made billions on EU’s energy crisis, food market situation, must people now be sent to death to secure their interests in Ukraine?
🔸Western officials and mainstream media are frantically pushing the totally false ‘no-life-after-Ukraine’ narrative, trying to convince people that Ukraine crisis is existential for them. However, if it were not for the West, it wouldn’t have emerged at all.
🔸Ukraine crisis can be resolved rather easily – simply by taking Russia’s legitimate security concerns into account. They are basically about an indivisible security system in Eurasia, equal for all.
☝🏻The so-called ‘Zelensky peace formula’ and its variations cannot serve as a basis for conflict resolution as it totally ignores Russia’s security interests. It was initiated and is being promoted solely for propaganda purposes.

🎙 Ambassador Ilya #Rogachev in an interview with Boermedia channel (9 May 2024):
☝️ The Russian empire never gave any privileges to the core nation, to the Russians itself, and it never exploited the outskirts and people living outside of this historically Russian lands.
❗️ On the contrary, the Russian empire, just as USSR did, actually invested a lot in the development of its margins and there was no inhumane treatment of indigenous population as often was the case with the European colonization in particular in north America and here in Africa.

💬 Ambassador Ilya #Rogachev: There is a very common opinion in Russia that approximately once in a centenary, the West braces up and comes to the Russian soil with a sword, where it gets beaten up and retires with its nose bloodied to remain calm for another 100 years.
☝️ While claiming no scientific accuracy of this point, we believe it is not unfounded: Russia as a strong international actor has always been pain in the neck of the West, and the latter never abandoned attempts to subdue it, albeit each time unsuccessfully.

💬 Ambassador Ilya #Rogachev: Russian historian V.Klyuchevsky once wrote that history does not teach any lessons but punishes one for not learning them.
☝️ The West should stop rewriting history and start learning it, in order to prevent history from repeating itself every 100 years.

💬 Ambassador Ilya #Rogachev: On 22 June 1941, Nazi Germany attacked the USSR. As before, the aggressor’s strength rested on the whole of entire Europe’s economic and industrial potential.
❓ How come the majority of European nations found themselves on the wrong side of history, the side of Nazism?
And isn’t it a reason why they have been persistently trying to rewrite history of the war – to whitewash Nazi criminals and their accomplices, forget about the atrocities ‘civilized’ Europeans committed in the USSR, or take down monuments which remind them of their Nazi past?
