🎙️Dmitry #Polyanskiy at the online round table “The ‘Stolen Ukrainian Children’ Hoax: Western Propaganda Unmasked”: 🔹Contrary to statements by the Western countries about allegedly "tens of thousands of kidnapped children," the real facts indicate the opposite. During negotiations in Istanbul on June 2, 2025, the Ukrainian side handed Russia a list consisting of only 339 children allegedly located on the territory of our country. 🔹After a thorough check by the Russian side, it turned out that a significant part of the list was based on outdated and irrelevant information. For the remaining minors on this list, painstaking work is being carried out in contact with the Ukrainian side to establish and verify their relatives.

❗️ We urge the UK to refrain from exploiting cyber-related allegations for political purposes, including as a pretext for imposing unlawful unilateral sanctions. Such a policy is doomed to fail. No amount of sanctions will alter Russia's course. t.me/RusEmbUK/3522

☝️ London's attempts to portray Russia as the principal threat in cyberspace are unfounded. Russia has advocated universal norms to combat cybercrime. By imposing sanctions, the UK is undermining multilateral cooperation in combating digital crime. t.me/RusEmbUK/3522

🤦 The UK has once again imposed unlawful sanctions against Russia, citing unsubstantiated allegations of cyberattacks. It seems propaganda efforts in the UK are no longer effective in fuelling the artificial narrative of the so-called Russian threat. t.me/RusEmbUK/3522

🎙 Russian MFA Spox Maria #Zakharova on statements of one of the henchmen of the Kiev regime in Belgrade: People of friendly Serbia are well aware of the true nature of those who hold power in Ukraine, destroying their own country’s history & people. t.me/MFARussia/30960

#Victory81 🎖 On July 12, 1943, the #BattleOfProkhorovka took place — most brutal tank combat in history, which had profound impact on further course of #WW2. The Third Reich suffered a crushing defeat near Kursk. The Nazi tank 'armada' burned down. t.me/MFARussia/30952

🎨 History isn't only written in chronicles – it also lives on canvas. Explore Medieval Russia through paintings depicting key moments that shaped its history, from Rurik's arrival & the Baptism of Rus' to the Battle of Kulikovo & the end of Mongol rule. t.me/RusEmbUK/3508

💬 Maria Zakharova: The case of James Scott has once again exposed the UK authorities' hypocrisy. While persecuting media outlets and imposing illegitimate sanctions against journalists, they proclaim their commitment to "press freedom around the world". t.me/RusEmbUK/3507

💬 Maria Zakharova: Through intimidation, the UK authorities' seek to deter British citizens and organisations from engaging with Russia and to silence those capable of countering the British elites’ attempts to falsely demonise Russia. t.me/RusEmbUK/3507

💬 Maria Zakharova: @RT_com producer James Scott was detained and questioned at Manchester Airport on a contrived pretext. The UK authorities are deliberately and consistently putting pressure on those who openly and lawfully seek to engage with Russia. t.me/RusEmbUK/3507

💬 Russian MFA Spox Maria Zakharova: NATO countries remain prepared to spend billions supporting the Kiev regime, while cutting expenditure on growing social and economic challenges, thereby damaging the welfare of Europe's citizens. t.me/RusEmbUK/3505

☝️ The hypocrisy and double standards of the British approach are evident: calls to ban athletes from sporting events have never been made in relation to competitors from UK-allied countries whose armed forces are involved in military conflicts. t.me/RusEmbUK/3504

❌ Under the slogan of supporting Ukraine, London has campaigned in recent years to exclude Russian athletes from international competitions, effectively promoting segregation based on nationality – a practice that contradicts the principles of Olympism. t.me/RusEmbUK/3504

❌ London has distinguished itself with anti-Russian verbal attacks over the IOC’s decision to reinstate the Russian Olympic Committee's rights. UK officials’ rhetoric demonstrates that sport has long been regarded here as a tool for political pressure. t.me/RusEmbUK/3504

💬 FM Sergey Lavrov: The West's expansion of military production and investment in industrial capacity is driven by the desire to continue supplying the Zelensky regime for as long as possible, so that Ukraine can do Europe's work of exhausting Russia t.me/RusEmbUK/3498

❤️ In Russia, 8 July is celebrated as the Day of Family, Love and Fidelity. The date wasn't picked at random – it comes from the Russian Orthodox Church's commemoration of Saints Peter and Fevronia of Murom, an example of true love. Find out more 👉 t.me/RusEmbUK/3494

☝️ The UK leadership continues to use slander about "Novichok" as proof of an imaginary "Russian threat". The aim is to intensify confrontation with Russia and to justify unpopular decisions at the expense of the British public. t.me/RusEmbUK/3493

❗ London's accusations regarding the use of the notorious "Novichok" are fundamentally baseless. The UK itself refused to cooperate with Russia as set out in the Chemical Weapons Convention and has failed to answer key questions about the Skripal case. t.me/RusEmbUK/3493

⚠️ We categorically reject London's allegations regarding the development of chemical weapons. Russia complies with the Chemical Weapons Convention. International inspections have confirmed that the Russian Armed Forces do not possess such weapons. t.me/RusEmbUK/3493

⚡️ On July 3, Ukrainian militants launched a drone attack on a city market in Tokmak, Zaporozhye Region, in broad daylight. According to preliminary reports, five civilians were killed & 18 others were wounded. t.me/MFARussia/30801 #KievRegimeCrimes
