⚡️ Заявление МИД России в связи с визитом на Тайвань спикера Палаты представителей США Н.Пелоси

2 августа на Тайвань прибыла спикер Палаты представителей Конгресса США Нэнси Пелоси.

Рассматриваем её визит как явную провокацию в духе агрессивной линии США на всестороннее сдерживание КНР.

Считаем, что отношения между сторонами Тайваньского пролива – это сугубо внутреннее дело Китая. Китайская сторона вправе предпринимать меры, необходимые для защиты своего суверенитета и территориальной целостности в тайваньском вопросе.

❗️ Принципиальная позиция России неизменна: исходим из того, что существует только один Китай, правительство КНР – единственное законное правительство, представляющее весь Китай, а Тайвань – неотъемлемая часть Китая.

В принятом по итогам переговоров лидеров наших стран 4 февраля с.г. в Пекине Совместном заявлении Российской Федерации и Китайской Народной Республики о международных отношениях, вступающих в новую эпоху, и глобальном устойчивом развитии российская сторона вновь подтвердила приверженность принципу «одного Китая» и выступила против независимости острова в какой бы то ни было форме.

☝️ Призываем Вашингтон воздержаться от действий, подрывающих региональную стабильность и международную безопасность, и признать новую геополитическую реальность, в которой уже нет места для американской гегемонии.

⚡ Russian Foreign Ministry statement on US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan

Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, arrived in Taiwan on August 2.

❗ We consider her visit a clear provocation in keeping with the US’s aggressive policy of comprehensive containment of the PRC.

We believe relations between both sides of the Taiwan Strait are exclusively China’s domestic affair. The Chinese side is entitled to take any measures necessary to protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity in terms of the Taiwan issue.

🇷🇺 🤝 🇨🇳 Russia's principled position remains unchanged: we operate on the premise that there is only one China, and the PRC government is the only legitimate government representing all of China, and that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China.

In the Joint Statement of the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China on international relations entering a new era and on sustainable global development, which was adopted after the talks between the leaders of our countries on February 4, the Russian side reaffirmed its adherence to the “one China” principle and opposed the independence of the island in any form.

We call on Washington to refrain from actions, that undermine regional stability and international security, and to recognise the new geopolitical reality, which has no place for US hegemony.

🇷🇺🇺🇸Ответ Посла А.И.Антонова на вопрос СМИ:
❓: Уважаемый Анатолий Иванович, как Вы прокомментируете введение 2 августа очередных санкций в отношении российских граждан и организаций?
💬 А.И.#Антонов: Раскрученная Вашингтоном "санкционная машина" продолжает "штамповать" ограничения против отечественного бизнеса в попытке вытеснить Россию с мировых рынков. Занять освободившиеся позиции за счет банального шантажа, а не справедливой конкуренции. Причем многие санкции дублируются. Видимо, бюрократия придумать что-либо новенькое уже не может.
🔹Вопросы возникают к объявленным мерам против российских предпринимателей и компаний, связанных с производством металлопродукции и удобрений. Несмотря на многочисленные заверения минфина США о выведении подобных товаров, прежде всего агросырья, из-под рестрикций, банки, страховщики и транспортно-логистические фирмы отказываются от работы с отечественными предприятиями. Подтверждение законности подобных сделок со стороны международных организаций не всегда помогает.
🔹Подобное «усердие» американских властей дополнительно расшатывает глобальные рынки, и без того страдающие от значительных нарушений цепочек поставок. Отсюда - риски дальнейшего роста цен и возникновения проблем с получением необходимой продукции. Наибольший ущерб будет нанесен развивающимся странам.
🔹Как бы ни старались наши оппоненты, изолировать Россию не получится. Мы зарекомендовали себя в качестве ответственного, надежного поставщика, заинтересованного в поддержании крепких взаимовыгодных торговых связей с зарубежными партнерами.

🇷🇺🇺🇸Ambassador Anatoly Antonov's answer to a media question:
❓: Dear Ambassador, how would you comment on the imposition of the new sanctions against Russian citizens and organizations on August 2?
💬 Anatoly #Antonov: The "sanctions machine" initiated by Washington continues to "stamp out" restrictions against Russian business in an attempt to crowd Russia out from global markets. To take the vacant positions at the expense of banal blackmail, and not fair competition. Moreover, many sanctions are duplicated. Apparently, the bureaucracy can't come up with anything new anymore.
🔹Questions arise about the announced measures against Russian entrepreneurs and companies associated with the production of metal products and fertilizers. Despite numerous assurances from the US Treasury Department about the withdrawal of such goods, primarily agricultural raw materials, from restrictions, banks, insurers as well as transport and logistics firms refuse to work with Russian enterprises. Confirmation of the legality of such transactions by international organizations does not always help.
🔹Such "diligence" of the American authorities further undermines global markets, which are already suffering from significant supply chain disruptions. Hence the risks of further price increases and problems with obtaining the necessary products. The most painful damage will be inflicted on developing countries.
🔹No matter how hard our opponents try, it will not work to isolate Russia. We have established ourselves as a responsible, reliable supplier interested in maintaining strong mutually beneficial trade relations with foreign partners.

The Moscow-based Victory Museum presents an online multimedia exhibition "Auschwitz. The Truth."

This online project was created to preserve the permanent exhibition "Tragedy. Courage. Liberation", that, until recently, was on display at the "Auschwitz-Birkenau" Museum in Poland.

Its first sections are devoted to the tragedy of Soviet prisoners of war, prisoners of camps. The exhibition follows the chronological order, telling how the first PoWs entered the camp, how they were used by the Nazis as lab rats to test the deadly Cyclone B gas. There is a section on underground resistance. A large portion of the exhibition tells about the Red Army's liberation of this horrifying concentration camp - materials, photos, witness testimonies, memoirs and personal items.

👉 Visit the virtual exhibition & learn more about Auschwitz

An extensive video collection is available for free in 3 languages - Russian, Polish and English - includes a film on the liberation of Auschwitz.

Russia can be either strong or perish – the latest developments have proven in all clarity the accuracy of this axiomatic statement. Sanctions, military, media and political pressures and attempts to cut us from the global markets and deprive us of technology are effective only as long as we stay within a matrix shaped by those who are hostile to us. Russia’s policy to reinforce its national sovereignty in recent years has proven to be incompatible with its involvement in global processes on someone else’s terms or as a member of Western-centric structures such as the Group of Eight, which Russia left for good back in 2014. Injecting more sovereignty across the board, including in the world of ideas, politics, culture, research, economics, finance and other spheres while remaining open to broad mutually enriching equitable international cooperation can well place Russia on the path to steady development and secure the place it deserves in the multipolar world order. <...>

It is high time for Russia to go back to its roots and to realise that it forms a historical core of a civilisation with a unique identity and is, in fact, the largest Eurasian and Euro-Pacific power and one of the world’s most powerful geopolitical centres.

The special military operation creates ample opportunities for reclaiming this identity. Russians, Chechens, Avars, Tatars, Yakuts, Tuvans and members of other indigenous peoples are all fighting within a multi-ethnic and multi-faith Russian army against the troops of Kiev’s puppet regime, which has put its stakes on a retrograde policy of radical nationalism and an unconditional and humiliating subordination to its foreign masters. Cossacks and Chechens had been adversaries for a long time, but now they worked together to liberate Lisichansk and call each other comrades in arms. A Chechen commander received a Cossack military award. This is something that deserves some thought. It emerges that efforts to promote an interethnic unity and traditional values generate creative energies, while relying on a falsified vision of history and illusions about the future is unnatural, paving the way to domestic instability and aggression against dissenters.

Of course, going back to one’s roots would be impossible without mobilising the state and society on the ideological front. This is another essential prerequisite for an effective foreign policy as we move away from our dependency on the West in all its forms and manifestations. Prominent Russian researchers have been making this point as they presaged many of the issues that emerged at the current historical stage. Ivan Solonevich wrote back in 1951 that the unique nature of the Russian civilisation can be defined as a “singular national state and cultural whole that is clearly distinct from both Europe and Asia.” In 1993, Vadim Tsymbursky referred to Russia as a “special ethnic and civilisational platform.” Alexander Zinoviev wrote in 2003 that Europe was the Western tip of the Eurasian continent saying: “The prosperous West that Russia is dreaming of is but a small island in the ocean of filth and suffering.”

History has chosen Russia as a force poised to accelerate the transition to a new world order through its persistence and steady resolve to achieve truth and justice for all. Not only Russia’s foreign policy positions but the stability of the entire system of international relations hinge on our ability to play a unifying role and create a cross-civilisational network of priority partners within the next decade.

🎙 Statement by Mr. Igor Vishnevetskii, Deputy Head of the Russian Delegation at the 10th #NPT Review Conference

💬 The confidence of the NPT states parties in IAEA safeguards is a key factor in the sustainability of the entire nuclear non-proliferation system.

We believe that the basic principles of the IAEA safeguards system should remain:

✅ objectivity,
✅ technical objectivity,
✅ consistency with the safeguards agreements concluded between states and the IAEA.

☝️ The presumption of innocence and respect for sovereignty remain legitimate rights of all NPT states parties, and the application of safeguards should take this fully into account.

✅ We appreciate the traditionally friendly and trust-based nature of our partnership, which is immune to the influence of time-serving foreign policy considerations.

✅ Despite the pandemic, our trade grew by 20 percent in 2021 and by 50 percent in the first six months of 2022, year on year.

✅ We have developed close ties in education and the training of personnel. Over 7,000 Myanmar citizens have been given an opportunity to receive a higher education in Russia.
