🎙Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov: We just had a meeting in Sochi – the First Ministerial Conference of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum. The overwhelming majority of participants said that they can no longer put up with the situation where everything that nature has given them – the richest reserves, including rare earth metals, uranium and much more – they extract with the help of Western companies. And the latter take everything to their processing plants, and all the added value and profit remains there.

❗️This is neocolonialism, pure and simple.

#RussiaAfrica #neocolonialism

🇺🇦 10 years ago, on Nov 14, 2014, then President of Ukraine Poroshenko, by his decree No. 875/2014, put into effect the decision of the National Security and Defense Council of Nov 4, 2014 "On urgent measures to stabilize the socio-economic situation in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions."

❗️This marked the beginning of the financial, economic and transport blockade of Donbass by the Kiev regime.

Why were such measures taken against Donbass?

Because the population refused to recognize the dictatorship of the nationalist radicals who came to power as a result of the unconstitutional armed coup d'etat in Kiev in Feb 2014, orchestrated by the USA, Britain, France and Germany, with the support of the Baltic NATO assistants, as well as Poland. Donetsk and Lugansk did not accept all of this. The population stood up to defend their legal rights and freedoms, preserving the legitimate institutions of power.

⚠️ Having failed to defeat the Donbass residents with the regular army and Bandera's punitive forces from neo-Nazi volunteer battalions, the rulers of Ukraine decided to starve the region, deprive its residents of their livelihood, make them suffer.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview with Marina Kim for the New World project (Moscow, November 14, 2024)

Key talking points:

#InternationalAffairs

• Our main task now is to achieve all the goals formulated by President Vladimir Putin. You are aware of the West’s expectations. They are speculating about stopping the hostilities at a certain line and coordinating a truce, so that 10 years from now they will decide who Crimea and Donbass belong to. This is coffee cup reading. I won’t engage in it. We have our tasks, and we will fulfil them.

• Our job is to assert and promote Russia’s interests in keeping with its Constitution as well as the objectives defined by President Vladimir Putin. This goes beyond Ukraine and applies to Russia’s Foreign Policy Concept in general.

#USA

• Washington can’t allow Russia to prove that it is a strong player and undermine the West’s reputation. They don’t care about Ukraine. They only care about their reputation. They decided that Ukraine should have a government they like and didn’t expect anyone to protest. Russia? It’s a big country but it must be brought down a peg. That is what this is about rather than the future of the Ukrainian people. They don’t care about people.

• Sanctions have been imposed on over half of the world’s countries, even if they are not as drastic as those that have been adopted against Russia, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Iran and Venezuela. The real reason behind the West’s current rage is that China is rapidly and confidently surging ahead of the United States.

• We can see through what the Americans want. Sitting somewhere overseas, they believe that they are beyond the reach, while leaving it to Europe to overcome the challenges they face in terms of encouraging and arming Ukraine to fight Russia, as well as footing the bill for the Middle East tragedy.

#Eurasia4You

• God gave us one continent, and we share it. This continent possesses immense and, in fact, the biggest natural resources, while several millennia-old civilisations inhabit it. Failing to benefit from these competitive advantages would be a mistake. This is what the idea of building a Greater Eurasian Partnership is all about, and the EAEU, SCO and ASEAN have already taken the first steps in this direction. We are establishing ties and promoting dialogue. If we succeed in fulfilling the plans we have, the Greater Eurasian Partnership will offer a solid foundation and serve as an economic and transport backbone for what President Vladimir Putin called a new Eurasian security architecture.

• There is a clear understanding that the Eurasian security architecture, just like the Greater Eurasian Partnership, must be open to all countries and continents, including Eurasia’s western part, even if so far the latter has been trying, as if by inertia, to ensure its interests within a Euro-Atlantic security concept instead of opting for the Eurasian framework, which would be natural and reasonable, considering the geography factor. This is their way of saying that they do not intend to do anything without the United States.

#BRICS

🌐 BRICS is about the new world order that is based on the main principle of the UN Charter – the sovereign equality of states.

• BRICS has no intention of dividing the world. It wants to bring together countries that desire closer relations so that they can live on the land they got from God and their ancestors just as they used to, as great civilisations.

#Africa

🌍 Decolonisation has taken place, in a broad sense. But being able to actually manage one’s freedom and resources is a different story. This is where neo-colonialism comes to the fore.

• The First Ministerial Conference of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum in Sochi, and the Russia-Africa Summit in St Petersburg in 2023 clearly put into perspective the trends that could be called Africa’s second awakening.

🎞 79-80 years ago, in 1944-45, people in Europe cheered at the Red Army who liberated them from Nazism and the worst horrors imaginable, sacrificing for the freedom of all with their own lives.

Today, their ungrateful descendants led by immoral politicians desecrate monuments to the Soviet liberators.

But #WeRemember.

All of them, just like their supporters in different countries, with their flaming hearts, their high intellectual potential and their aspiration for the future are part of the emerging multipolar world, fairer and more democratic.

#Russia #russophile #EmbassyofRussia #Ambarov

🎙️🇷🇺 Посол России в ЮАР Р.Е.Амбаров на встрече с представителями "Международного движения русофилов" (14 ноября 2024 г.):

В нашем мероприятии принимают участие делегаты из России, ЮАР, Лесото, Китая, Бразилии, Египта, Сенегала, Мали, Бангладеш, Венесуэлы, Франции, Германии, США. Все они, как и их сторонники в разных странах, с их высочайшим интеллектуальным потенциалом, горящими сердцами и устремленностью в будущее – и есть часть формирующегося многополярного мира, более справедливого и демократичного.

🎙️🇺🇸 Jackson Hinkle, popular blogger and political commentator (USA):

The International #Russophile Movement brings people from all across the world, even Western countries – #Europe, #America – to actually discuss what our traditional values are, how we can embrace the traditional nature of each and every country, and what can be done to unite with people across the world – in #Africa, #LatinAmerica, #Russia, #China, Europe and so on and so forth, to actually bolster each movement in each civilizational state to achieve true sovereignty.

#SouthAfrica #russophile #USA #opinion

🎙️🇧🇷 Pepe Escobar, geopolitical analyst and popular blogger (Brazil):

It’s a relatively new movement. It’s Russo-phile, but it’s multipolarity-phile at the same time. It’s Russian civilization, Russian culture, Russian sense of history, and the leading role of Russia as a major power in the XXI century, coordinating the dialogue with different parts of the world, including here in Africa.

#SouthAfrica #russophile #Brazil #opinion

🎙️🇿🇦 Joe Mhlanga, geopolitical analyst (South Africa):

Africa is the breadbasket of the world. We supply all natural resources to the world, especially in the West. They have power and influence through our natural resources. So Africa should be treated as one of the key contributors of the global economy. But in the past, we’ve seen, Africans were treated as slaves, they were treated as people that needed to be given aid, meaning 1% of everything that they take out needs to be given back to Africa. <…> So it’s very critical for Russia to be able to lead this multipolarism.

#SouthAfrica #russophile #opinion

🎙️🇿🇦 Dr. Nonkululeko Patricia Mantula, CEO & Founder of GSQ Media House, African Ambassador of Russia’s World Youth Festival Directorate, Broadcasting Radio Journalist (South Africa):

African culture is very important. I think some of our speakers today did mention the criticalness of understanding the people-to-people engagement. <…> You can’t be sovereign, you can’t be independent if your culture is not something that you put forward. If we understand the soft power that lies within the cultural currency, which is our arts, our culture, the way we are, then it would be easier for us to start self-determining and saying to the world who we are.
