Russia in Australia

💬 MFA Spox #Zakharova on @PeteHegseth remarks: The US policy in space exploration & space security is becoming increasingly aggressive We have not yet passed “the point of no return” in keeping outer space peaceful & free of weapons and conflicts t.me/MFARussia/28782

💬 MFA Spox #Zakharova: On March 19, a missile strike by the Israeli Air Force in southern Lebanon wounded RT TV crew members. The circumstances indicate: the attack was deliberate & targeted. ☝️ We insist on carrying out a thorough investigation. t.me/MFARussia/28792

💬 #Zakharova: In light of the hundreds of journalists killed in Gaza, today's Israeli attack on RT correspondents – @SweeneySteve & his cameraman – cannot be described as accidental. We wish them a speedy recovery. ❗️ We expect a response from international organisations.

🇷🇺 18 марта в начальной общеобразовательной школе при Посольстве России в Австралии прошел урок, посвященный 12-й годовщине воссоединения Крыма и Севастополя с Россией. 🎓 Школьники расширили представление о богатой истории полуострова, его культурных и природных объектах, приняли участие в викторине и подготовили выставку тематических поделок. 🎥 Состоялся показ документального фильма корреспондента телеканала RT Д.Хрусталева «Крым. Перерождение» (rtdoc.tv/films/1050-cri…), повествующего о том, как изменилась жизнь крымчан после 2014 г. #КрымЭтоРоссия

💬 #Zakharova: 12 years ago, #Crimea returned home! It became a defining moment of national unity – a rallying point that showed the world the unwavering will of our people to defend their roots & identity. #CrimeaIsRussia ❤️🇷🇺

💬 #Zakharova: New evidence has recently emerged indicating that Ukraine is selling weapons left & right. ❗️Ukraine is increasingly turning into a major hub for arms smuggling, posing serious risks to international security.

💬 #Zakharova: On March 11, Russia’s Investigative Committee opened a criminal case into the theft of the [Crimean collection] & non-return of cultural property against Dutch & Ukrainian officials. All Crimean artefacts must be returned to their homeland – 🇷🇺 Crimea.

💬 #Zakharova: Europe’s so-called “economic miracle” was built on affordable energy from #Russia – which it has now deliberately rejected. 📉 As a result – declining economy & falling living standards for ordinary Europeans.

🇷🇺 #CrimeaIsRussia 1️⃣2️⃣ years ago – on March 18, 2014 – the Agreement on the Accession of the Republic of Crimea in the Russian Federation was signed. Time has only cemented Crimeans’ confidence in their historic decision. #Russia + #Crimea = one indivisible destiny ❤️

#CrimeaIsRussia These days we mark the events related to the twelfth anniversary of Crimea’s reunification with the Russian Federation (en.kremlin.ru/events/preside…), which became an expression of the right of peoples to self-determination (x.com/mfa_russia/sta…). It was strongly driven by the spread of Russophobia in Ukraine linked with the revival of Nazism and the ascent of structures like the Right Sector and the Azov (designated as terrorist organisations in Russia). Their symbols and insignia speak for themselves. The red-and-black flag of the notorious Nazi collaborator Ukrainian Insurgent Army, adopted by the Right Sector, is historically associated with mass murders of the Polish population by Ukrainian Nazis in 1943 known as the Volhynia Massacre (t.me/MFARussia/25722). The Azov flag bears the Nazi Wolfsangel symbol, which was the tactical mark of the SS Panzer Division “Das Reich” and other SS and Wehrmacht units. Both banners have recently been proudly displayed during demonstrations held by the Ukrainian community representatives in cities across Australia. ❗️If you see these flags, beware: it is an encounter with Nazism and terrorism.

❌ Even before Nazi Germany’s surrender, Western intelligence agencies began preparing for confrontation with the USSR, including using Nazi leftovers & their cronies Today, as it was 75 years ago, the collective West provides aid to Ukrainian Nazis. t.me/MFARussia/28745

#NoStatuteOfLimitations 📅 75 years ago, Ukrainian nationalists who collaborated with Hitler & Nazi Germany called upon the US to aid its struggle vs USSR By this time, the West had already been assisting Ukrainian nationalists Historical retrospect 👉 t.me/MFARussia/28745

⚡️ Amid an artificially fuelled atmosphere of confrontation, Russia reaffirms its unwavering solidarity with the Government & the brotherly people of #Cuba. We strongly condemn attempts at gross interference in the internal affairs of Cuba. t.me/MFARussia/28750

❗️ Through their treacherous and unprovoked attack on Iran, the US and Israel have unleashed an unprecedented spiral of violence in the Middle East. ☝️ We reiterate our resolute call to all parties for an immediate cessation of hostilities. t.me/MFARussia/28733

🇷🇺 On March 16, 2014 – 1️⃣2️⃣ years ago – the all-Crimean referendum took place. 96.77% of Crimea’s population voted to join Russia, with turnout at 83.1%. ✅ It's clear that the choice made by the people of Crimea was the right one! t.me/MFARussia/28712 #CrimeaIsRussia

⚖️ On March 12, the Russian court sentenced 15 of 19 defendants in the Crocus City Hall terrorist attack case to life imprisonment. The heinous crime, carried out in the interests of the Kiev regime, took place on March 22, 2024, claiming 150 lives. t.me/MFARussia/28670

#Announcement 🗓 The International Security Forum held under the auspices of the Security Council of the Russian Federation is scheduled to take place on May 26-29, 2026. 👉 Forum & media accreditation details: t.me/MFARussia/28653

⚡️ Yesterday's AFU strike on Bryansk was carried out using British long-range Storm Shadow missiles. London's goal is to derail the peace process through a large-scale provocation involving civilian casualties & trigger an escalation of hostilities. t.me/MFARussia/28650

💬 Russian MFA Spox #Zakharova: On March 10, the Kiev regime deliberately struck the civilian population in Bryansk. The UN Secretariat & @antonioguterres cannot pretend not to see this. Nor can they ignore the number of civilian casualties. Will they remain silent again?
