UN peacekeepers are protected under international law. They are #NotATarget. All parties to the conflict must ensure the safety and security of @UNIFIL_ at all times. We urge them to return to a ceasefire and implement UN Security Council Resolution 1701. 2/2

We strongly condemn the recent attacks on @UNIFIL_ troops in #Lebanon, which left three Indonesian peacekeepers dead. Our deepest condolences go out to their families, and we sincerely hope that those injured make a speedy recovery. @Kemlu_RI 1/2

@RusEmbJakarta @jakpost @mfa_russia @Kemlu_RI For those who are interested in content, here’s the actual interview: thejakartapost.com/opinion/2026/0…

✉️ Letter by Ambassador of Russia to Indonesia Sergei Tolchenov to the Editor-in-Chief of @jakpost (26 February 2026) 💬 I noticed the interview with Ralf Beste, German Ambassador to Indonesia, ASEAN and Timor-Leste, published in The Jakarta Post on Feb. 20, 2026. I find it interesting to see a new face in the local diplomatic corps but it is a pity that together with other readers we have to hear the same old story about the “Russian war machine” and “sanctions packages”. An unbiased view on the Ukrainian conflict requires addressing its causes and the relevant aspects of international law, rather than replicating politicized clichés. Key points: • As for us, we will try to “separate the wheat from the chaff,” especially because these days mark 12 years since the tragic events on the “Maidan,” the culmination of which was an externally orchestrated, unconstitutional armed coup d’état in the Ukrainian capital. • The special military operation that started on Feb. 24, 2022, is being carried out in accordance with Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, in full compliance with Russian legislation and at the request of the Donbass Republics that had been subject to the Ukrainian regime's shelling and blockade with the connivance of Western countries. It was Russia that made every effort until the very last moment to de-escalate tensions in Europe. • By carrying out the special military operation, the Russian Federation seeks to prevent Russians and Russian language speakers from being exterminated, as well as eliminating long-standing security threats created by the West after NATO had been expanding eastward for many years, bringing its military infrastructure closer to Russia’s borders, which was one of the primary causes of the Ukraine crisis. • For us, negotiations toward a settlement remain preferable, as President of Russia Vladimir Putin has repeatedly emphasized. We have not refused negotiations, as confirmed by our constructive engagement in reviewing US initiatives. We value the efforts of our BRICS partners to help create an atmosphere conducive to finding peaceful solutions to the Ukrainian crisis • The Ukrainian regime, which started as an ideologically charged combat unit fueled by Nazi ideology, has transformed into an organized criminal group mired in corruption and dragging its “sponsors” down with it. By financing them, Germany and other Western countries just “added more fuel to the fire”, trying to pump the regime with arms and push it toward escalation in order to inflict a “strategic defeat on Russia” through its hands. 👉 Read in full: t.me/kedubesrusia/3…
