🎙Embassy reply to a media question regarding Defence Secretary Ben Wallace’s claim against Russia
❓Question: How would you comment on the recent statements by Ben Wallace who said that Russian is a “fascist state” that “does not want to listen”?
💬Answer: We have numerously urged UK officials to refrain from insulting and escalatory rhetoric intended to camouflage their own foreign policy failings.
▪️It seems Secretary Wallace has forgotten events of the recent past. And we know that history has a habit of repeating itself badly when politicians fail to learn from its mistakes. Seeing such omissions from a Defence Secretary is a worrisome sign. Nevertheless, we are happy to once more refresh Secretary Wallace’s memory.
▪️First, Russia since 2015 has repeatedly called on the West to apply pressure on Ukraine to implement the Minsk Agreements, signed by Kiev, endorsed by the UN Security Council and, more importantly, intended to firmly guarantee Ukraine’s territorial integrity. We stressed time and again that Kiev was openly sabotaging these agreements, essentially buying time to prepare for a military solution in Donbass. The West, including the UK, preferred not to listen.
▪️Secondly, Russia has repeatedly made it clear that further NATO enlargement to the East, pulling Ukraine into its orbit and artificially creating a vehemently anti-Russian state next to our borders is an unacceptable “red line”. Most recently, we voluntarily devised and forwarded our security proposals that would have ensured – in line with OSCE principles – indivisible security for all European countries. Unfortunately, the US and its NATO allies, including the UK, preferred not to listen, again.
▪️Thirdly, Russia has provided irrefutable evidence that neo-Nazism is flourishing in Ukraine, that the Kiev authorities are encouraging nationalist and far-right sentiments, fostering Russophobia, effectively “cancelling” Russia, including the Russian language and media and thereby depriving Ukraine’s Russian-speaking population of its lawful rights. Moreover, since 2014 Ukraine has deployed its military in a merciless punitive campaign against its own citizens in the Donbass region. Yet again, the West, including the UK, preferred not to listen.
▪️The aims of the Russian special military operation are straight-forward: to demilitarise and de-Nazify Ukraine in order to protect the security interests of the Russian Federation and the rights of the Russian citizens, the citizens of Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, as well as the Russian-speaking population in Ukraine. As Secretary Wallace has rightly said, when someone does not want to listen – something that the West has clearly demonstrated – hard power is needed alongside words.
▪️Last, we were surprised to hear Secretary Wallace overtly supporting the call for British citizens to fight in Ukraine, thus fuelling hostilities, which the British government allegedly seeks to stop. It would have been advisable on Secretary Wallace’s part to warn his countrymen that in the event of capture they are bound to be treated as mercenaries, as the currently detained UK citizens in Donbass can confirm – devoid of any rights to combatant or prisoner-of-war status.

⚠️ Russian Federation's Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response continues to record numerous facts of criminal actions by Kiev regime against civilians, as well as the use of medical infrastructure for military purposes by Ukrainian armed formations:
🔹in Seversk, Donetsk People's Republic, neo-Nazis have equipped firing positions and ammunition depots in residential buildings (Sadovaya Street) without evacuating local residents;
🔹in Izmail, Odessa region, territorial defence units are deployed at the Agrotechnological College (Suvorov Avenue), and roadblocks and firing points have been equipped in the vicinity of the building;
🔹in Kharkov, Ukrainian militants, MLRS and artillery are stationed on the territory of the Machine-Building College (General Momot Street) and the approaches to the building are mined, but the local population is deliberately not informed about this;
🔹in Artemovsk, Donetsk People's Republic, AFU soldiers have equipped a stronghold in the teacher training college (Blagoveshchenskaya Street), armoured vehicles and artillery are deployed, and residents of nearby houses are forcibly detained in the premises of the institution under the pretext of supposedly ensuring security.
▫️These facts once again demonstrate the Ukrainian authorities' complete disregard for the norms of morality and the provisions of international humanitarian law.
▫️This is happening with the tacit consent of the countries of the so-called collective West, which continue to turn a blind eye to the numerous war crimes of the Kiev regime.

❗️ While Kiev regime and its western sponsors were preparing an operation aimed at capturing Zaporozhye nuclear power plant on September 1, the international community had to be informed about the establishment of Kiev's control over the plant by specially selected and prepared 'mass media representatives' from Ukraine, USA and United Kingdom in presence of the mission from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
◽️ With this purpose, as it was confirmed on September 2 in the public statement by V.Zelensky, Kiev regime added motor cars with Ukrainian and western journalists on board to the convoy of IAEA without prior arrangement.
◽️ The attempt to carry out this provocation was made by Kiev in disregard of mission's working scenario documentally predetermined by IAEA Secretariat and UN Department for Safety and Security.
◽️ According to thoroughly studied and agreed documents, the access to Russian-controlled territory of Zaporozhye nuclear power plant was to be provided only pursuant to the lists previously presented by Russian Defence Ministry to UN Department for Safery and Security.
◽️ There are no representatives of Ukrainian or other mass media tasked to accompany IAEA's convoy on September 1 from Kiev-controlled territory to Zaporozhye nuclear power plant in the agreed lists.
◽️ Considering this fact, in order to implement the security protocol for mission's work, all unauthorised persons were stopped and did not receive access at their attempts to cross the delimitation line with IAEA's convoy.
◽️ At the same time, on request of IAEA Secretariat, Russian party provided the arrival of over 60 representatives of mass media, including from France, USA, China, Denmark, Japan, Germany, Turkey, Qatar, UAE, South Korea, Vietnam and other countries to cover the mission's work.
⚠️ In the morning on September 1, the journalists that arrived in Energodar happened to witness the unsuccessful attempt to assault Zaporozhye nuclear power plant by Ukrainian saboteurs and experienced personally an artillery shelling launched by AFU at the nuclear power plant and residential areas of Energodar while hiding in a bomb shelter.

🎙Embassy Statement on plans to supply UK armaments with depleted uranium to Ukraine
▪️We consider the plans, officially confirmed by the UK Defence Ministry, to supply Ukraine ammunition with depleted uranium to be a step fraught with risks of further escalation of the conflict.
▪️UK weapons supplies to Kiev, especially of such a sensitive nature, would lead to aggravation of the situation.
▪️Radioactivity, high toxicity and carcinogenicity of such weapons are well-known.
👆Clearly the British have made the choice towards inflicting maximum damage and destruction to the population of the frontline regions.
▪️In general, this provides further evidence that Ukraine represents nothing more than testing ground for the UK in its stand-off with our country.
❗️We warn London against crossing another dangerous line in its maniacal desire to achieve “Russia’s defeat”.
