Forwarded from Russian MFA 🇷🇺
🇷🇺 On January 15 Vladimir Putin received the letters of credence from newly appointed ambassadors of foreign nations. The ceremony took place in the St Alexander Hall of the Grand Kremlin Palace.
The letters of credence were presented to the President of Russia by the representatives of Republic of Slovenia, Federal Republic of Somalia, Gabonese Republic, Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, French Republic, Republic of Senegal, Republic of Rwanda, Czech Republic, Islamic Republic of Mauritania, Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, Portuguese Republic, People's Republic of Bangladesh, Federative Republic of Brazil, Kingdom of Norway, Kingdom of Sweden, Arab Republic of Egypt, Republic of Colombia, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Republic of Ghana, Republic of Namibia, Republic of Austria, Republic of Cuba, Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Republic of Korea, Republic of Peru, Oriental Republic of Uruguay, Republic of Lebanon, Swiss Confederation, Republic of Iraq, Italian Republic, and Republic of Maldives.
***
Excerpts from President Putin's speech at the ceremony for presenting letters of credence:
💬 Vladimir Putin: International cooperation is fundamental to humanity’s sustainable development and prosperity. In today’s diverse and interconnected world, global stability and security depend directly on the ability of states to interact constructively. Open and honest partnerships create the conditions needed to tackle our shared challenges.
There is a reason why people say that peace does not come by itself. It must be built, day-by-day, and it is a painstaking process. Achieving peace requires effort, a sense of responsibility and the ability to make deliberate choices. This posture is especially relevant today considering the increasingly deteriorating international environment. Old conflicts are escalating, while new serious hotbeds of tension emerge.
At the same time, unilateral and dangerous actions often substitute diplomacy, efforts to come to a compromise or find solutions which would suit everyone. Instead of having states engage in dialogue with one another, there are those relying on the might-makes-right principle to assert their unilateral narratives, those who believe that they can impose their will, lecture others how they must live and issue orders.
Dozens of countries across the world have been suffering from the infringement of their sovereign rights, from chaos and lawlessness. They lack the strength and resources to stand up for themselves.
Placing a greater emphasis on having all members of the international community respect international law, as well as facilitating the advent of new emerging trends and a fair multipolar world order can be viewed as a reasonable solution.
I would like to note that Russia is sincerely committed to the ideals of a multipolar world. Our country has always pursued and will continue to pursue a balanced, constructive foreign policy course that takes into account both our national interests and the objective trends of global development. <...>
Russia advocates for strengthening the key, central role of the United Nations in global affairs, the organisation that celebrated its anniversary last year. <...>
Security must be truly comprehensive and, therefore, equal and indivisible, and it cannot be ensured for some at the expense of the security of others.
This principle is enshrined in fundamental international legal instruments.
Disregarding this basic, vital principle has never led to anything good and never will. This has been clearly demonstrated by the crisis around Ukraine, which became a direct consequence of years of ignoring Russia’s legitimate interests and a deliberate policy of creating threats to our security, including the advancement of the NATO bloc towards Russia’s borders – contrary to the public promises made to us.
<...>
☝️ Russia is always open to building equal and constructive relations with all international partners for the sake of universal prosperity, well-being, and development.

⚓️ On January 16, 1909, Boris Alexeev was born – commander of the S-33 submarine of the Black Sea Fleet, Hero of the Soviet Union, Captain 1st Rank, Candidate of Naval Sciences.
From a young age, Boris Alexeev devoted his life to the sea – already at 14, he worked on vessels of the Volga-Caspian Shipping Company. In 1931, he graduated from the Baku Maritime Technical School and entered service in the USSR Navy.
After completing submarine command courses in Leningrad, Alexeev first served with the Pacific Fleet and, from November 1939, with the Black Sea Fleet, where he met the beginning of the Great Patriotic War.
⚔️ The defence of Sevastopol and the liberation of Crimea became key chapters of his combat record. Between 1941-1944, while commanding submarine S-33, Boris Alexeev carried out 18 combat patrols.
Even when his submarine was undergoing repairs, he continued to fight the Nazi invaders. For instance, in the spring and summer of 1942, acting as the supporting commander of submarine S-31, he broke through to besieged Sevastopol – delivering ammunition and food and evacuating wounded and sick Red Army soldiers.
In 1943-1944, S-33 conducted raids against enemy communications between Sevastopol and western Black Sea ports, as well as off the Crimean coast. The results of these operations were confirmed after the war:
• April 20, 1943 – sank the Romanian transport Suceava;
• September 22 and December 27, 1943 – destroyed two enemy transports by torpedoes, of approximately 6,000 and 4,000 tons;
• May 12, 1944, off Cape Sarych – intercepted and sank an enemy landing barge, capturing the naval ensign of Nazi Germany.
💬 Excerpt from the award citation for Boris Alexeev (June 5, 1944):
🏅 On July 22, 1944, by Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, Boris Alexeev was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union, and submarine S-33 was granted the Guards status.
After the Victory, Boris Alexeev continued his exemplary service – commanding a submarine division of the Black Sea Fleet, graduating with honours from the Voroshilov Naval Academy and training new generations of submariners. He passed away on January 25, 1972, and was laid to rest at Serafimovskoe Cemetery.

💬 Excerpt from the award citation for Boris Alexeev (June 5, 1944):
Captain 2nd Rank Alexeev completed 18 fully autonomous combat patrols during the Patriotic War.
His combat record includes seven enemy ships sunk and one damaged. All attacks were conducted boldly and persistently, despite active countermeasures of the enemy escort.
At sea, Captain 2nd Rank Alexeev constantly seeks out the enemy, finds him and delivers a devastating blow. Through his courage and determination, inflicting significant damage on the enemy, he has earned universal respect among the personnel of the submarine brigade.
He is worthy of the title “Hero of the Soviet Union”.
🏅 On July 22, 1944, by Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, Boris Alexeev was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union, and submarine S-33 was granted the Guards status.
