💬 FM Lavrov: Pressing everyone to stop buying Russian oil is a dirty tactic. Call it colonial or neo-colonial — either way, it’s exploitation. These measures are designed to force everyone to buy expensive US oil and LNG instead of cheap Russian oil. t.me/RusEmbUK/3160

☝️ The UK accusations [against Russia] of interference in Armenia’s elections seem absurd. London’s neo-colonial policy, which previously facilitated the coup in Kiev, is now aimed at Armenia. The West would do well to stop interfering in the affairs of sovereign nations.

❗ The allegations of the forcible transfer of 20,000 children from Ukraine to Russia have been repeatedly proven false. London uses falsehoods as one of its main tools on Ukraine, continuing to refine its methods of manipulation and distortion. t.me/RusEmbUK/3157

❌ London distinguished itself by another batch of illegitimate anti-Russian sanctions. Restrictions were imposed on those who selflessly rescue children from frontline areas subjected to barbaric strikes using Western – including British – weaponry. t.me/RusEmbUK/3157

💥 Victory salvos echo across the #RedSquare in honour of the 81st anniversary of the Great Victory of the Soviet people over Nazism. Happy #Victory81!

Today marks 81 years since Victory in the Great Patriotic War. On 9 May, we pay tribute to the millions who confronted the horrors of war, resisted Nazism, protected their homeland, & gave their lives so that future generations could live without oppression and fear. #Victory81

💬 Andrei Kelin: We honour the heroism of British soldiers, the courage of sailors from the Arctic convoys. The memory of our peoples’ shared struggle endures in historical records, official documents & the decisions that shaped the post-war world order. t.me/RusEmbUK/3116

💬 Ambassador Kelin: This year marks 85 years since the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, and 80 years since the Nuremberg trials of Nazi war criminals. We prevailed in that war, yet Russia has never diminished the Allies’ contribution to Victory. t.me/RusEmbUK/3116

☝️ It is precisely London that continues to fuel the Ukraine conflict by providing the Kiev regime with money and weapons. The Ukrainian people are paying for such “assistance” with the lives of the most vulnerable and defenceless members of society. t.me/RusEmbUK/3101

❌ London has announced new illegitimate sanctions against Russia. This hostile step, like previous ones, will have no impact on the overall situation or the course of the special military operation, despite the lofty rhetoric of the UK authorities. t.me/RusEmbUK/3101

💬 #Zakharova: In Lusaka, at the recent World Press Freedom Day conference, @RT_com chief producer asked a question that left many stunned. Not one speaker gave a clear answer, as the West’s house of cards, built on lies, is wobbling ever more visibly. t.me/MFARussia/29677

🇷🇺🇧🇾 Denis Moskalenko, Consul General of the Russian Federation in Edinburgh, and Dmitry Kozlovsky, Chargé d'Affaires of the Republic of Belarus in the UK, laid wreaths at the memorial to the crew of the Soviet submarine B-1 in Dundee. t.me/russian_cg_edi… #Victory81

💬 Maria Zakharova: We are aware of the West's attitude toward #VictoryDay. They are destroying the Soviet memorial legacy, rewriting and distorting history. By continuing to supply Ukraine with weapons, they are acting as accomplices of the Kiev regime. t.me/RusEmbUK/3099

⚡️ Russian MFA Spox Maria #Zakharova: A Note Verbale has been sent to all diplomatic missions accredited to @mfa_russia warning on timely personnel evacuation from Kiev. Read in full: t.me/MFARussia/29675 We are acting from a position of an inevitable response to aggression

⚡️ MoD Russia: Russia declares a ceasefire for May 8-9 in honour of Victory Day and expects Ukraine to follow. ❗️ If Kiev regime attempts to disrupt celebrations, Russia will launch a just retaliatory, massive missile strike on centre of Kiev. In full: t.me/MFARussia/29659

💐 Ahead of the 81st anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, Russian diplomats visited cemeteries in Hartlepool, Harrogate, Leeds, Huddersfield, Liverpool and Chester, where they laid flowers at the graves of Soviet soldiers. t.me/RusEmbUK/3073 #WeRemember
