Why are we so sure it were the Ukrainian and not Russian military, as Western media initially claimed and as some our colleagues said earlier today? There are several reasons, I will name three of them.

Firstly, Russian troops do not use Tochka-U tactical missile systems. They are outdated, that is why we replaced them with Iskander systems. Ukrainian troops, however, keep using Tochka-U systems very actively.

Secondly, eyewitnesses had taken some pictures on “hot scents”, before Ukrainian propaganda makers arrived on the scene. Those photos make it possible to unmistakably identify both the type of the missile and direction where it had come from. This area is so far controlled by Ukrainian military.

Thirdly, same photos let us easily identify the number of the Tochka-U, and say that it belonged to “Ш915” series. Missiles of the same series were used on many occasions to shell peaceful cities of Donbas. There are debris of those missiles displaying corresponding serial numbers.

The 19th Missile Brigade of Ukrainian armed forces used same type of projectile in their air strike against the Donetsk city center, which killed 21 residents on the spot and wounded 36 more.

Western media still present the appalling video footage of this shelling as bombardment of Kiev.

To sum up, the provocation in Kramatorsk failed. But Ukrainian propaganda experts will surely try to learn their lesson and work better next time. They do their best. Lately, we have informed the United Nations of the following provocations that they are working on.

▪️Staged filming of the search and opening of mass graves in Ragovka settlement of Kiev region.

▪️Reporters from Western media have arrived at the town of Kremyannaya. Their goal is to film a provocation organized by Ukrainian armed forces. This time it should be about Russian troops allegedly shooting at ambulances that transport patients.

▪️In Bilogorovka, neo-Nazis have mined chlorine tanks at a water supply plant, which they plan to blow up when LPR militia formations approach the town.

▪️In Irpen (Kiev region), a Bucha/Nemmersdorf-style provocation is taking place. Members of Ukraine’s Security Service plan to take bodies of civilians who were killed by an artillery bombardment from the morgue of the town hospital in Polevaya Street to a basement of one of the buildings in eastern outskirts of the town. Then a staged action with shooting and "destruction" of an alleged "Russian reconnaissance group" that arrived in Irpen "to kill witnesses of Russian war crimes" will be staged by the Security Service of Ukraine in Puscha-Voditskii forest area. At the same time, the bodies of captured Russian servicemen previously killed by nationalists under torture will be presented as "undeniable evidence". We wait for Western media to circulate video footage of this staged campaign.

As recently as today, Russian Defense Ministry reported that representatives of the Ukrainian and Western media were invited to Seredina Buda town in Sumy region, which was formerly under the control of Russian troops, to conduct staged video footage.

In Nizhnyaya Syrovatka near Sumy, bodies are being dragged into one of the basements of residential buildings. This story about “another victim” of Russian troops is directed by British “filmmakers”. I remind that Russian troops withdrew from the town three weeks ago. We receive all these reports from local residents who remain on the ground and are not indifferent to the goals of the SMO.

Besides, I cannot fail to mention reports coming from Odessa, according to which there are many Ukrainian soldiers in the city who are dressed in Russian military uniform. Apparently, another large-scale deadly provocation, or rather a false flag operation is being prepared in Odessa. Colleagues, please do not say we did not warn you.

Both past and planned provocations, coupled with the notorious practice of using civilians as a human shield startle with inhumane attitude to the future of Ukrainian people and prove that Ukrainian nationalists are in full neglect of any moral norms and rules of the international humanitarian law. As we repeatedly stated, Russia does not fight Ukrainian civil population.

Mr.President,
Since this meeting is also dedicated to the issue of women, peace, and security, I cannot but address this aspect. In respect to Ukraine, this agenda is highly politicized and imbued with provocations. We clearly see an intention to present Russian soldiers as sadists and rapists – in the same manner as one tried to present Soviet winner-warriors of WW2 as sadists and rapists back in the day. Neither goals, nor the Russophobic sentiment of Ukraine’s inherited propaganda playbooks have changed.

However reality proves otherwise. Despite all tricks, truth about heinous tortures of civilians (including women and children) by sadists from Ukrainian nationalist battalions sometimes does get through to Western audience.
Take primary school 18 of Mariupol, that was long held by Azov Nazi battalion. Even seen-it-all military were shocked by what they saw there – a dismembered dead body of a woman on the floor in the basement, hands severed off, face disfigured, swastika sign branded onto the belly.
Remarkably, from time to time Ukraine and the West attempt to present this terrifying photo evidence, which has already been published, as evidence of crimes committed by Russians.

Mr.President,
Nationalists have been consistently working on the Ukrainian society for at least 8 years. That is why unfortunately, Ukrainian women sometimes assume rather strange, I would say even wildish image. This is best illustrated by a patriotic reel that is being actively promoted on social media. It features a famous actress from Western Ukraine cutting the throat of a tortured Russian soldier with a sickle. In the background, patriotic mottos, as well as curses can be heard. The only thing this may be connoted with is ISIL spreading video footage that depicted terrorists cutting throats of their victims.

It is very unfortunate that Ukraine resorted to this limitless ruthlessness, to blind extremism and radicalism that keeps abreast with that demonstrated by ISIL. When seeing this, one but makes sure that Russia’s special military operation was really needed and had no alternative. The SMO is needed for the sake of Ukraine’s future, for the sake of security of Russia and other its neighbors. I doubt that peaceful Poles can feel safe when organizers of Wołyń massacre that killed dozens of thousands of their fellow citizens back in 1943 are cherished in present-day Ukraine as national heroes. I am speaking about peaceful Poles rather than Polish authorities, blinded by Russophobia, whose policy has long lost any common sense.

Mr.President,
Let me finish my statement by making a more optimistic point. There is another Ukraine that is getting through our SMO a new chance to peaceful life and good neighborly relations.

This Ukraine has its symbols, among them women. For example, there is a video clip that went viral on social media and seems to have touched everyone’s feelings. I mean the video made by Ukrainian troops when they entered one of the villages. There was a very old lady who stepped forth to greet them. Having mistaken them for Russians, she welcomed them with red Soviet Victory Banner in her hands. She spoke words of kindness to them and said how long she had waited to be liberated. Ukrainian soldiers, and we must do them justice for that, make no wrong to the old lady and give her a parcel with produce, but in return they take the banner from her and start trampling it with their boots. Then the lady, who had realized her mistake, demonstratively returned the parcel to them and demanded her banner back – the banner for which her parents had fought. The video stops here.
I would very much want to believe that nothing bad happened to the lady afterwards.

Her courage and resolve have inspired many people. I would also want to believe that she will see the moment of liberation and will be able to take the red banner on Victory Day, which is a sacred holiday to all of us, and honor the memory of her parents and all those who liberated Ukraine from Nazis, without fearing that someone might trample on it.

Thank you.

🎙 Commento del Ministero degli Affari Esteri della Federazione Russa in relazione alle dichiarazioni dell'Alto Rappresentante dell'Unione europea per gli affari esteri e la politica di sicurezza Josep Borrell dopo la sua visita in Ucraina

La dichiarazione dell'Alto Rappresentante dell'Unione europea per gli affari esteri e la politica di sicurezza Josep Borrell, rilasciata sui social network dopo la sua visita in Ucraina, che «questa guerra sarà vinta sul campo di battaglia», conferma chiaramente che l'Unione europea «Versione 2022» ha definitivamente rinunciato agli ideali pacifisti dei suoi padri fondatori, che si adoperavano per garantire che una nuova guerra in Europa fosse «impensabile e impossibile». Ora l'Unione europea «amante della pace» promette di portare l'ammontare dell'assistenza militare a Kiev a 1,5 miliardi di euro.

Davanti agli occhi del mondo intero l'UE si sta trasformando in uno strumento militarizzato e aggressivo di espansione esterna. In accordo con i plurisecolari «valori europei» sta guidando un altro «assalto all'est». È così che l'Occidente realizza il desiderio di un dominio globale illimitato su coloro che considera inferiori a se stesso a livello genetico.

In Occidente fanno finta di non notare, e quindi incoraggiano, attacchi missilistici mirati e provocazioni dei nazionalisti ucraini contro la popolazione civile, la responsabilità della cui morte stanno cercando di far ricadere sulle truppe russe. Funzionari europei hanno completamente ignorato il fatto che l'attacco alla stazione ferroviaria di Kramatorsk l'8 aprile è stato effettuato da «Tochka-U», non utilizzato dalle truppe russe, dal territorio controllato dalle forze armate dell'Ucraina, e il il missile stesso ha un numero di serie vicino al numero di altri missili usati dalle forze armate ucraine.

Allo stesso tempo, Josep Borrell e il Presidente della Commissione europea Ursula von der Leyen hanno sostenuto la cinica provocazione di Kiev con il massacro di civili a Bucha. Consideriamo questo blasfemo in relazione, prima di tutto, alla memoria delle vittime dei continui bombardamenti ucraini delle città e dei villaggi del Donbass. Nessuno dei membri dell'UE si è preso la briga di visitare questi territori nemmeno una volta dal 2014.

Non c'è limite all'ipocrisia dell'Unione Europea: l'assistenza a Kiev per aiutare i neonazisti ucraini a continuare a uccidere impunemente persone è fornita attraverso la Fondazione Europea per la Pace. I veri valori de «l'Occidente illuminato» sono evidenziati dall'uso diffuso da parte dei politici dell'UE dello slogan nazista «Gloria all'Ucraina», un calco del saluto usato nella Germania nazista. Viene svolta dappertutto l'operazione di «piazza pulita» dello spazio mediatico dell'UE dai punti di vista alternativi, nei paesi dell'UE viene esercitata una pressione senza precedenti sui russi e sui russofoni affinché rinuncino alla loro patria storica.

Le tesi sulla necessità di una soluzione politica a sostegno dei negoziati sono scomparse dal lessico dell'UE. Il motivo è chiaro: una decisione politica interferirà con il loro obiettivo principale: la continuazione della guerra per procura fino all'ultimo ucraino.

Tale «diplomazia» dell'UE è contraria agli interessi degli abitanti dei Paesi europei che aspirano alla pace, alla stabilità e alla prevenzione delle manifestazioni di nazismo e discriminazione nel nostro continente comune.

🎙 Заявление МИД России в связи с высказываниями Высокого представителя ЕС по иностранным делам и политике безопасности Ж.Борреля по итогам визита на Украину

Заявление Высокого представителя ЕС по иностранным делам и политике безопасности Ж.Борреля, сделанное им в соцсетях по итогам визита на Украину, что «эта война будет выиграна на поле боя», отчётливо подтверждает, что Евросоюз образца 2022 г. окончательно отрёкся от миротворческих идеалов своих отцов-основателей, которые стремились к тому, чтобы новая война в Европе была «немыслимой и невозможной». Теперь «миролюбивый» Евросоюз обещает довести объём военной помощи Киеву до 1,5 млрд евро.

На глазах всего мира ЕС перерождается в милитаризованный и агрессивный инструмент внешней экспансии. Сообразно многовековым «европейским ценностям» ведет очередной «натиск на восток». Так Запад реализует стремление к безграничному глобальному доминированию над теми, кого на генетическом уровне считает хуже себя.

На Западе делают вид, что не замечают, а значит – поощряют, целенаправленные ракетные удары и провокации украинских националистов против мирного населения, ответственность за гибель которого пытаются возложить на российские войска. Еврочиновники начисто проигнорировали тот факт, что удар по железнодорожному вокзалу в Краматорске 8 апреля был нанесен «Точкой-У», не используемой российскими войсками, с территории, контролируемой вооруженными силами Украины (ВСУ), и сама ракета имеет серийный номер, близкий к номерам других ракет, использованных ВСУ.

При этом Ж.Боррель и Председатель Еврокомиссии У.фон дер Ляйен поддержали циничную провокацию Киева с массовым убийством мирных жителей в Буче. Считаем это кощунственным по отношению, прежде всего, к памяти жертв постоянных украинских обстрелов городов и сел Донбасса. Никто из есовцев не удосужился посетить эти территории ни разу с 2014 г.

Лицемерию Евросоюза нет предела – содействие Киеву, чтобы помочь украинским неонацистам и дальше безнаказанно убивать людей, оказывается по линии «Европейского фонда мира». Об истинных ценностях «просвещенного Запада» свидетельствует широкое использование есовскими политиками нацистского лозунга «Слава Украине» – кальки с приветствия, использовавшегося в нацисткой Германии. Повсеместно ведется «зачистка» есовского медиапространства от альтернативных взглядов, осуществляется беспрецедентное давление в странах ЕС на русских и русскоязычных, с тем чтобы они отказались от своей исторической Родины.

Из есовского лексикона пропали тезисы о необходимости политического решения, в поддержку переговоров. Понятно почему: политическое решение будет мешать их главной цели – продолжению прокси-войны до последнего украинца.

Подобная «дипломатия» ЕС идет вразрез с интересами жителей стран Европы, стремящихся к миру и стабильности, недопущению проявлений нацизма и дискриминации на нашем общем континенте.
