💬 It’s a fait accompli: Washington and its NATO partners have nurtured another international terrorist cell, the Kiev regime.

There have been bin Laden and ISIS, now we have Zelensky and his cutthroats.

The US and Britain are directly to blame.

Our prayers go to Zakhar [Prilepin]*

🦠 On May 5, Director-General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced the end of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Over the past three years, the pandemic has presented an unprecedented challenge to the entire world, shedding light on many issues and vulnerabilities. While the global crisis required the highest degree of cohesion, mutual assistance, coordination and rejection of selfish practices, some countries preferred to look for scapegoats and politicise the situation.

Pure opportunistic reasons were behind the failure, during the years of the pandemic, to address the issue of WHO registering Russian vaccines that have proven their effectiveness and saved millions of lives all over the world.

At the same time, more facts have been uncovered recently suggesting that American pharmaceutical companies and others filling the markets with their vaccines engaged in corruption.

There are reasonable questions, reinforced by growing evidence of various side effects from their use, about whether the WHO decisions to expedite their global certification had been justified.

👉 Russia is ready to provide assistance and cooperate with all countries based on the principles of solidarity, equality and respect for international law in the search for mutually acceptable solutions to achieve progress in sustainable development and expand international cooperation in the field of global health to prevent future pandemics.

🎬 Finnish Face of Fascism - an RT Doc. Film

Synopsis: During World War II, Finland was Germany's ally. Nazi ideas thrived among the Finnish leadership, who developed a theory of racial superiority.

The Finnish administration introduced martial law in Soviet Republic of Karelia. Finns divided the population of occupied Soviet Karelia into 'citizens' and 'non-citizens.' Citizens were people of Finnish and Ugrian origins. They received shelter, jobs, and ration cards. All other nationalities, mostly Slavs, were superfluous to Greater Finland.

From 1941 to 1944, the Finns built 14 concentration camps, 34 labor camps and dozens of prisons in Karelia. Approximately 25,000 people went through the network of Finnish camps, according the official figures alone.

Prisoners recall that every day they had to work for 10 to 12 hours and there was a terrible famine. Klavdia Nyuppieva, who survived the camp, recalls that her family of seven people had just seven spoons of flour per day.

The mortality rate in the Finnish concentration camps was even higher than in the German ones. However, the exact number of people who perished in Karelia and Petrozavodsk's concentration camps is still unknown.

⚡️ Foreign Ministry’s statement on the terrorist attack against writer Zakhar Prilepin organised by Ukrainian security services

Read in full

On May 6, Alexander Shubin, a veteran of military operations in the LPR, was killed and Russian writer, publicist and public figure Yevgeny Prilepin (Zakhar Prilepin) gravely injured as a result of a car explosion caused by an explosive device planted along its route in the Nizhny Novgorod Region.

Russian law enforcement agencies are investigating all the details of the incident. However, it is already clear from the materials received due to the prompt efforts of the Interior Ministry and the Investigative Committee that it was another terrorist attack organised and carried out by the Kiev regime backed by its Western curators.

The terrorist attack against Yevgeny Prilepin is yet another demonstration of the systematic approach to eliminating ideological opponents, which has been actively nurtured in Ukraine since 2014 through the efforts of Washington, becoming the Kiev regime’s basic reflex.

<…>

Today, a real hunt has been declared for unbiased journalists, writers, and public figures. Darya Dugina, Maxim Fomin - murdered, attempt on the life of Konstantin Malofeyev made.

❗️ The responsibility for this and other terrorist acts lies on the Ukrainian authorities together with their Western sponsors, mainly the United States, through whose efforts the anti-Russia project blended with neo-Nazism has been painstakingly nurtured in Ukraine since the coup in February 2014.

The lack of condemnation by the US authorities of another terrorist attack against a Russian journalist and public figure is telling - it speaks for itself.

The silence of relevant international organisations is unacceptable.

We express our condolences to the families and friends of the victims, and wish Yevgeny Prilepin a speedy recovery.

#Opinion by Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova

MSM quotes Kirill Budanov, head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence, from an interview with Yahoo News when asked about about Kiev's possible involvement in the murder of Darya Dugina:

“All I will comment on is that we’ve been killing Russians and we will keep killing Russians anywhere on the face of this world until the complete victory of Ukraine.”

💬 Maria Zakharova: This is a direct blow to the White House. The Kiev regime has basically announced that the Biden administration is sponsoring terrorism.
