2022-06-16 07:15:08 #Zakharova: Today #BRICS is a prime successful example of effective cooperation.

The five BRICS nations act as "custodian" of true multilateralism based on equal, mutually respectful dialogue, a collective approach to solving global problems & a sound balance of interests.

2022-06-16 07:00:47 #Zakharova: On June 13, Ukrainian nationalists put residential areas of Donetsk under the most barbaric shelling since 2015.

This tragedy finally forced intl agencies to respond. Shame that they only react when it becomes impossible to turn a blind eye to the crimes of Kiev.

2022-06-16 06:45:02 #Zakharova: Much of the blame for the ongoing tragedy in Donbass lies with Western countries.

The supply of weapons to Kiev leads to prolongation of hostilities, new casualties among the civilians, contributes to the formation & expansion of the “black market” for weapons.

Myth: Russia is using energy supplies for political purposes.

Faсts: It is the EU which, by imposing or planning to impose further unilateral sanctions against Russian energy supplies, is politicizing the energy sphere, attempting to use interdependences between energy consumers and suppliers as an instrument of political pressure, while damaging its own economy and the well-being of its citizens and aggravating what is already a precarious situation in the global energy markets.

Unfounded allegations that Moscow is using energy supplies for political aims are part and parcel of the fact-twisting information warfare unleashed by the EU and the US, the latter seeking to increase its LNG exports to the EU.
