🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s answers to questions from 'Moscow. Kremlin. Putin' television programme (Moscow, January 16, 2025)
❓ Question: Did you closely follow the remarks made by future US Secretary of State yesterday? Does anything in what he had to say about the Ukraine crisis and ways to resolve it stand out to you? Do you think we can work with what he had to say?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: I still believe that whatever we hear them say now is not an official position. In their system, most nominees for administrative positions must be approved by the Senate. During hearings, nominees are questioned, and efforts are made to elicit interesting or controversial responses from them.
The Democrats don’t want the Republicans come across as particularly convincing, because President Joe Biden said his four years in office were historically significant for restoring America’s greatness.
At this point, I’d rather not base my analysis on ideas and thoughts that we keep hearing. When Donald Trump was asked about this during an interview, he stated he intended to work hard, but first this “bloody mess” must stop. However, he also mentioned that he first needed to take office.
He will move into office in five days, and we will then see what kind of proposals will be put forward.
❓ Question: Meanwhile, every one of them is saying that preparations for a meeting between President Putin and Donald Trump are underway.
💬 Sergey Lavrov: Both Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov and I have addressed this earlier. There are no bilateral contacts that would be indicative of preparations for such a meeting.
If they are considering this and wish to prepare such a meeting, we will wait for them to come up with their proposals. The ball is in their court. We were not the ones to sever our ties or suspend regular consultations.
During one of his news conferences, President Vladimir Putin was asked if he was open to talks. As always, he said he was ready to engage at any time, provided serious proposals are presented. Donald Trump heard this and said at a news conference that Vladimir Putin wanted talks, and that he was ready to sit down and talk as well.
At this point, things remain fairly uncertain.
❓ Question: Could such a meeting be organised quickly, considering the current circumstances, where almost everyone on our side is under sanctions, and those “gentlemen” have made a mess of things over the past years?
💬 Sergey Lavrov: Those “gentlemen” have indeed made quite a mess, often hurting themselves in the process, primarily the Europeans.
Making Europe “not great” is an undeclared objective of any US administration as it seeks to eliminate competitors, including Russia, China, and everyone else.
However, if there is a will, there is a way. If the political will to establish contact is there, I have no doubt that the relevant services can make it happen.

⚡️ Ответ официального представителя МИД России М.В.Захаровой на вопрос СМИ в связи с новыми выявленными зверствами неонацистов в Курской области
❓ Вопрос: Вчера стало известно об обнаружении российскими военными в одном из подвалов в селе Русское Поречное Курской области тел мирных жителей, которых неонацистские оккупанты пытали и безжалостно убили. Речь идет об искалеченных телах престарелых людей, которые, очевидно, не могли оказать сопротивления. На опубликованных СМИ кадрах видны синяки и пулевые ранения, связанные руки. Поддается ли это вообще какой-либо оценке с человеческой точки зрения? Есть ли у Вас какие-то слова на этот счет?
💬 М.В.Захарова: Появившиеся в СМИ душераздирающие кадры действительно сложно комментировать с общечеловеческой точки зрения. Естественно, это не поддается никакому логическому объяснению и пониманию.
Эти зверства являются еще одной вопиющей констатацией террористического и неонацистского нутра киевского режима, который в очередной раз в своем злобном военном и политическом бессилии на фоне поражений на фронте, устроил людоедскую расправу над мирными жителями.
Это именно то, что государства «коллективного Запада» и их политики лично, покрывающие и поощряющие киевских нацистов, ждут от бандеровцев. Цинично отводят взгляд от их преступных деяний, продолжают санкционировать поставки вооружений киевскому режиму и блокируют попытки международных расследований его преступлений. Они дружно и дисциплинированно делают вид, что ничего страшного не происходит, хотя это является грубейшим нарушением международного гуманитарного права, Женевских конвенций.
❗️ Всё это лишний раз подтверждает, что истребление всего русского – в числе тех самых «европейских ценностей», которые, как разглагольствуют «цивилизованные» спонсоры бандеровцев, киевский режим защищает.
Поэтому очевидно, что и в этот раз мы не услышим какой-либо внятной реакции со стороны международных структур, таких как ОБСЕ, ООН и ее профильные подразделения, на эти жестокие убийства мирных граждан. Их подконтрольные Западу секретариаты продолжают сознательно отмалчиваться или отделываться ничего не значащими общими фразами о том, что они «против насилия», фактически покрывая виновных в убийствах жителей мирных сел и городов и становясь соучастниками этих злодеяний.
Понимаем, что уже бессмысленно взывать к тем, кто крепко застрял в западных тисках и не собирается делать ничего для установления справедливости, поиска и наказания виновных.
☝️ Мы сделаем это сами. Следственные органы Российской Федерации проведут все необходимые действия, чтобы установить виновных, и в дальнейшем те понесут заслуженное и неотвратимое наказание, получат реальные сроки заключения, как это уже происходит по многим другим выявленным преступлениям киевского режима.

⚡️ Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s response to a media question regarding recently exposed atrocities by neo-Nazis in the Kursk Region
❓ Question: Yesterday, it was revealed that the Russian military had discovered, in a cellar in the village of Russkoye Porechnoye, Kursk Region, bodies of civilians tortured and mercilessly killed by neo-Nazi invaders. Reportedly, those were maimed bodies of seniors who, evidently, were unable to resist. The images released by the media show bruises, bullet wounds, and tied arms and hands. Can this be commented on at all from a human point of view? Do you have any words for this?
💬 Maria Zakharova: True, the heart-wrenching images released by the media are hard to comment on from a human point of view. Naturally, it is beyond all logical explanations and understanding.
These atrocities are simply another outrageous manifestation of the terrorist and Nazi nature of the Kiev regime. Driven by its malicious military and political impotence at the front, it once again committed a cannibalistic massacre of civilians.
This is exactly what the countries of the collective West and their politicians, who personally cover and encourage Kiev’s Nazis, expect from the Banderites. They cynically turn a blind eye to their criminal acts, continue to authorise arms supplies to the Kiev regime and block attempts at international investigations of its crimes. In a joint and disciplined manner, they pretend that nothing terrible is happening, although this constitutes a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and the Geneva Conventions.
❗️ All this confirms once again that the extermination of anything Russian is part of the European values that, as the “civilised” sponsors of the Banderites claim, the Kiev regime is defending.
This is why it is obvious that this time again, we will not hear any intelligible reaction to these cruel murders of civilians from such international entities as the OSCE, the United Nations and its specialised agencies. Their secretariats controlled by the West keep their deliberate silence or say meaningless generalities about being “against violence,” while actually covering for the killings of residents of peaceful villages and towns, which makes them accomplices to those atrocities.
We realise that there is no point in calling on those who are tightly stuck in the Western grip and are not going to do anything to establish justice, and to find and punish those responsible.
☝️ We will do it ourselves. The investigative authorities of the Russian Federation will carry out all the necessary actions to identify the perpetrators who will be duly and inevitably held accountable and sentenced to real imprisonment terms, as it happens with many other exposed crimes of the Kiev regime.

🗓 On January 20, Crimea celebrates Republic Day. The holiday commemorates the referendum of 1991, when the absolute majority of Crimean residents voted to re-establish the Crimean Autonomous Republic.
👉 Crimea in history of Russia
Interesting facts:
🔸 Crimea has had a close connection with Russia for centuries. As far as in 988–989, Grand Prince Vladimir Svyatoslavich converted to Christianity in the then Tauric Chersonese. Centuries later, on April 19, 1783, Empress Catherine the Great signed a manifesto on the accession of Crimea to the Russian Empire.
🔸 The Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (CASSR) was originally established as part of the RSFSR in 1921. In 1945 it became the Crimean Region. In 1954, Crimea was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR; First Secretary of the CPSU’s Crimean Regional Committee, Pavel Titov, opposed the move and was relieved of his post.
🔸 The sovereignty referendum, which was held on January 20, 1991 to decide on re-establishing the CASSR, was the first plebiscite in the Soviet Union’s history. Voters were asked whether they supported re-establishing the CASSR as an entity of the USSR and a participant in the Union Treaty. A total of 93% of residents voted for autonomy. In the same year, a law was passed to re-establish the CASSR.
🔸 The 1991 Crimean referendum was the first attempt to determine the future of Crimea based on the will of its residents. To a large extent, this plebiscite served as the starting point for the peninsula’s reunification with Russia in 2014.
🔸 Republic Day was established in 2009. In 2014, after Crimea’s reunification with Russia, the holiday was included in the regional law on holidays.
🔸 On March 18, 2014, President of Russia Vladimir Putin and the top officials from Crimea and Sevastopol signed the Treaty on the Accession of the Republic of Crimea to Russia in full accordance with the results of the referendum held on March 16, 2014, where 96% of Crimean voted FOR the peninsula’s reunification with Russia.
Ever since #CrimeaIsRussia once again and forever will be henceforth.

✍️ Excerpts from Russia’s Foreign Ministry’s answers to media questions for Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s news conference on the performance of Russian diplomacy in 2024
#UkrainianCrisis
Russia has pointed out on numerous occasions that it is ready for talks on a settlement in Ukraine. We stand for a truly final, just and lasting solution based on the elimination of the root causes of that crisis.
A temporary ceasefire and a conflict freeze are unacceptable solutions.
The West will inevitably use them to reinforce the Kiev regime’s military potential and to take a military revenge. We want reliable and legally binding agreements with mechanisms guaranteeing the non-resumption of the conflict.
#RussiaChina #Victory80
This year, we are celebrating the 80th Anniversary of the Great Victory across both the European and Asian theatres of conflict. The peoples of the Soviet Union and China, having shouldered the formidable burden of resisting the aggressors, valiantly withstood the severe trials and triumphed over the enemy, albeit at the cost of tremendous human and material sacrifices.
The memory of this monumental achievement by our forebears remains sacred to our nations, serving to fortify the enduring Russian-Chinese friendship and instil a sense of patriotism in our youth. Russia and China are poised to celebrate this significant anniversary on a grand scale.
#RussiaAfrica
Russia has been systematically striving to enhance the full spectrum of relations with African states. The solid foundations of successful Russian-African collaboration lie in our shared objective of cultivating a just world and, to a large extent, a harmonious approach to addressing pressing international issues.
#RussiaUSA
Donald Trump’s return to the White House following last November’s presidential election significantly alters the political landscape within the US.
However, from the perspective of Russian-American relations, given the bipartisan Russophobic consensus that has developed, premised on the perception of Russia as an existential threat to American hegemony, no substantial positive developments should be anticipated. <...>
It must be emphasised that we are not harbouring any illusions about the new/old president. During his first term, contrary to expectations, the deterioration of bilateral ties initiated by Barack Obama persisted, and Donald Trump surpassed his predecessors in the scale of sanctions imposed against Russia.
#RussiaIran
Our bilateral cooperation has achieved an unprecedented level under the direction of the leaders of both nations. The conclusion of such a comprehensive agreement [Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the Russian Federation and the Islamic Republic of Iran] marks a significant event, representing a new milestone in the history of bilateral relations.
#RussiaSyria
We remain hopeful that the Syrian people will successfully overcome the challenges they face and develop consensus decisions about the future of their state. We stand ready to provide the Syrians with all possible support.
#Eurasia
We are actively pursuing the development of a Eurasian security architecture grounded in the principles of equality and indivisibility, ensuring that the primary responsibility for resolving regional disputes and conflicts rests with the states of the continent. President Vladimir Putin proposed this initiative during a meeting with the Foreign Ministry leadership on June 14, 2024.
Our concept is grounded in the principle that “regional problems require regional solutions.” Responsibility for resolving conflicts and preventing harmful external interference must rest collectively with the nations of Eurasia.
#Orthodoxy #Faith #FreedomOfReligion
Сertain elements within the American establishment, the so-called deep state, are using the Kiev regime and NATO mechanisms against the Russian Orthodox Church. We see what they are doing and how cynically they behave targeting canonical Orthodoxy, trying to sow discord among Orthodox believers in Europe.

🎖 2 февраля отмечается #ДеньВоинскойСлавы России 👉 #ВЭтотДень в 1943 году Красная армия разгромила нацистские войска в Сталинградской битве. Эта легендарная Победа ознаменовала собой начало коренного перелома в Великой Отечественной войне и начало краха Третьего рейха.
Планируя наступление на сталинградском направлении, нацистское командование сделало ставку на постепенное удушение нашей страны. Фашисты стремились прорваться к Волге, захватить #Сталинград и, таким образом, перерезать главную транспортную артерию Советского Союза.
⚔️ #СталинградскаяБитва продолжалась 2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ дней и ночей. В городе на протяжении многих месяцев подряд шли жестокие бои. Линии фронта как таковой не было. Советские воины бились с нацисткими захватчиками за каждый дом, улицу, комнату, лестничный пролёт в зданиях. Группа солдат Красной армии под началом лейтенанта Ивана Филипповича Афанасьева и старшего сержанта Якова Федотовича Павлова в ходе битвы в течение 58 дней удерживала четырёхэтажный дом — дольше, чем немцам сопротивлялась Франция — легендарный #ДомПавлова, ставший символом героической обороны Сталинграда.
🌟 19 ноября 1942 года советские войска приступили к проведению наступательной операции «Уран» с целью окружить врага под Сталинградом. Уже к вечеру 23 ноября советские танковые корпуса фашистов замкнули кольцо. Кроме того, в ходе наступления Красной армии были разгромлены и попали в плен пять румынских дивизий.
В «сталинградском котле» оказалась вся немецкая 6-я армия — 330 тысяч солдат и офицеров вермахта. Командующий — фельдмаршал Паулюс — отдал приказ о сдаче армии в плен. Из всей нацистской группировки в живых на тот момент осталось всего 90 тысяч солдат, в основном раненых, обмороженных и оголодавших.
☝️ Разгром нацистских войск под Сталинградом не только изменил обстановку на восточном, советско-германском фронте, но повлиял на дальнейший ход Второй мировой войны и ускорил общую Победу над нацизмом.
Советский военный журналист, поэт Константин Михайлович Симонов, который служил фронтовым корреспондентом в Сталинграде, так выразился о Победе советских войск:
💬 «Звук Сталинграда — это хруст непоправимо надломившейся немецкой военной машины».
