💬 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova:
For a year and a half now, at official Foreign Ministry briefings, I’ve been speaking about NATO weapons, primarily US-made weapons supplied to Zelensky, spreading to the black markets. I also pinpointed the reason for that which is corruption in Ukraine and the corrupt links existing between Washington and Kiev. I have asked, warned, and pleaded with the international media to pay attention.
Ask Bloomberg, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Politico, as well as The Associated Press, the BBC and others, how many times they have cited our data or conducted investigations based on it. Hint: none.
Provided below is evidence that Russia has reached out to the international community repeatedly and openly on this dangerous issue: https://telegra.ph/The-worldwide-proliferation-of-Western-weapons-supplied-to-Ukraine-Excerpts-from-briefings-by-Foreign-Ministry-Spokeswoman-Maria-10-10

Opinion by Maria #Zakharova:
💬 In her recent interview with Russian pranksters Vovan and Lexus, released yesterday, Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said that the Kiev regime had every right to glorify Bandera. “I think they are doing what they should and it is right that we are trying to help them,” she said.
This can be a sign of either poor education, an issue that has long plagued today’s Western political leaders, or a manifestation of nationalism.
Let’s see.
Ms Meloni, would you be willing to glorify Achille Starace, who served as First Secretary of the National Fascist Party in 1931-1939 and initiated the 1938 anti-Semitic campaign?
How about Alessandro Pavolini? He served as the Minister of Culture in 1939-1943 and was among those who created the Italian Social Republic. He was also the first, and, thank God, the last Secretary General of the Republican Fascist Party, the National Fascist Party’s successor, in 1943-1945.
❓ How about reviving the infamous Black Brigades, which operated in northern Italy in 1943-1945 as the Republican Fascist Party’s military arm?
I do understand that very important issues keep you very busy, so much so that you can hardly find any time to do some reading. Still, you can definitely fit a 90-minute film into your schedule. Der Fall Collini is a German film starring Italian actors, among others. This way, no one will accuse you of falling for the Kremlin propaganda. Maybe this will help you understand at least something.

⚡️Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova’s answer to the Rossiya Segodnya question regarding a statement by the press service of the Foreign Ministry of Sweden on the alleged legality of Swedish mercenaries’ participation in fighting on the side of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
❓Question: Press officer of the Swedish Foreign Ministry Tomas Vanecek said in reply to a question from Rossiya Segodnya that “it is not illegal for Swedish citizens to participate in the defence of Ukraine.” What is the attitude of the Russian Foreign Ministry to this statement?
💬Maria Zakharova: We can confirm that foreign mercenaries, including Swedish nationals, are fighting on the side of the nationalist Kiev regime, and this is a well-known fact. The Swedish Foreign Ministry’s clumsy attempts to legitimise these “soldiers of fortune,” thereby encouraging more Swedish nationals to travel to the zone of hostilities, show Stockholm’s complete disregard for the future of its citizens.
❗️Although the link to the recruitment for the Ukrainian foreign legion is currently missing from the website of the Ukrainian embassy in Sweden, there is no doubt that it continues to recruit Swedish citizens through other channels.
☝️The Defence Ministry of Russia has put the total number of Swedish mercenaries in Ukraine at about 90 and has reported that 25 of them have been eliminated. We advise not only Swedes, but anyone who is planning to take up arms against Russian forces in the zone of the special military operation, to take this into consideration. The authorities of foreign countries should be aware of this and should recognise their responsibility towards their citizens.

💬 Zelensky announced a plan of a new counteroffensive.
The Russian Ministry of Defence recalled the results of the previous plans and counteroffensives. I won’t repeat this.
I will comment on the political background of this statement.
Zelensky’s public burps like this happen for three reasons.
First, he wants to show his Western sponsors his resolve to continue the bloodshed and his urgent need to receive new financial injections and arms supplies.
Second, he needs to regularly remind the world about himself, about Zelensky: don’t forget that I still exist.
Third, the main goal is to play up to the White House in the election race – to demonstrate the viability of Biden’s project named “Ukrainian democracy.”
What will all this lead to? Zelensky will finally exterminate the Ukrainians.

🎙 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova responds to former UK PM Gordon Brown's criticism of BRICS expansion:
“The doubling of the number of #BRICS member countries indicates the determination of the world community to cast off the yoke of neo-colonial oppression, to develop according to its national interests, to preserve the traditions of civilization, and to avoid the destructive influence of Western liberal dictatorship. That’s the essence of it.
☝️ As for the danger, first and foremost, London should be concerned about the technological degradation in Britain caused by liberal decadence.”
