📰 NEWS | Venezuela Allies Urge US to Cease Military Hostilities, Warn of ‘Spill-Over Effect’
The Non-Aligned Movement and the Group of Friends in Defense of the UN Charter issued statements condemning the US military escalation in the Caribbean, warning that any attack on Venezuela could trigger a regional “spill-over effect.”
They also raised concern over the US 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit conducting joint drills with Trinidad and Tobago and noted that Washington will designate the alleged “Cartel de los Soles” as a Foreign Terrorist Organization on November 24, despite the absence of court-tested evidence.

🚢Carib LPG возвращается к судовладению спустя 13 лет.
Барбадосская Carib LPG вновь выходит на рынок судовладения, приобретя LPG-танкер"Intrepid" (22 057 куб. м, 2018 г., бывший "Desert Orchid") у Petredec Group.
Судно относится к классу полурефрижераторного газовозного флота и ориентировано на перевозку сжиженных газов на региональных маршрутах. Сделка знаменует возвращение компании к владению флотом после более чем десятилетнего перерыва и работы только на чартерном рынке.
Покупка отражает устойчивый интерес к СУГ (LPG)-сегменту, где спрос поддерживается развитием энергетических рынков и химической промышленности. Среднетоннажные газовозы остаются востребованными для гибких региональных операций.
Возвращение Carib LPG к модели судовладения указывает на улучшение рыночной конъюнктуры и привлекательность инвестиций в газовый тоннаж.
Таким образом, компания делает стратегический шаг к расширению бизнеса, сочетая торговлю и транспортировку газа.
📌Carib LPG Ltd. — основана в 1997 году, частная энергетическая компания, базируется на Барбадосе, принадлежит частным инвесторам.
С момента создания развивалась как трейдер и дистрибьютор СУГ (LPG) в странах Карибского региона. Основной бизнес — поставка газа для бытового, коммерческого и промышленного использования.

⚡️ Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s interview for a documentary titled "The UN from the 20th to the 21st Century" (Moscow, September 25, 2024)
Key points:
• Less than a year after the victorious powers established the UN based on the noble principles formulated in its charter, it became clear that the West, acting contrary to these principles, intended to launch a war against the Soviet Union, and not merely a cold war but an all-out war. These plans hatched by the then "Anglo-Saxons" [nations of the Anglosphere led by the US & UK] have long become public knowledge.
• Once NATO was created, the Soviet Union circulated a large document which demonstrated the detrimental effect of that and the danger of building walls between the East and the West, especially in Europe, and called for respecting the #UNCharter and for working towards this. Our call was not heeded.
✊ However, we kept fighting for justice and the implementation of the principle of sovereign equality of nations. Decolonisation was a bright stage and a major embodiment of that principle. The Soviet Union was the main initiator of the 1960 Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples. Following its adoption, the number of UN states increased by 80-90 members.
• They tell us that the main goal today is to ensure the territorial integrity of Ukraine. It is a misleading interpretation of the UN Charter, where the right of nations to self-determination is put before territorial integrity.
• Even before demanding respect for territorial integrity, the UN Charter demands respect for human rights without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion <…> Now that Zelensky’s Nazi regime, which the West nurtured, has banned both the language and religious rights of a large number of its own population, the West has put away the banners it was waving for decades.
❗️The top priority now is to ensure the achievement of the initial goals and principles of the UN Charter in their entirety and as a whole, rather than selectively or occasionally.
• The reform of the UN Security Council is not a one-off event. It’s a process which has been ongoing since the time the United Nations came into being <...> Nevertheless, it relies on principles that must be preserved at all costs. The main principle is that the Security Council reform should be based on a broad-based agreement among states. It does not say “consensus,” but it does state “broad-based agreement among states.”
🌍🇮🇳🇧🇷 We have invariably supported the legitimate aspirations of India and Brazil to secure permanent seats in the Security Council. However, African aspirations must be met as well. Africa has common collective positions, which we respect. And we would have like that.
• Our position implies providing additional seats for Asia, Africa, and Latin America. We are open to some of these seats being permanent, but we need to achieve general agreement before we can move forward. It is a complicated process. I don’t see any chance for bringing this process to a swift and expedited completion any time soon.
• Since the UN was created, there has never been a time, a region, or a situation that involved the United States in one way or another, where the country would actually respect that principle. Every time, everywhere they acted as a hegemon, or like a "bull in a china shop".
• When they wanted to punish Russia, the West abandoned all the principles which it was feeding to us and which it declared sacred. The same is happening to the principles of the UN Charter. The West is trampling and destroying them without a moment’s hesitation.

⚡️Russian Foreign Ministry statement in connection with the US strikes on Iran(June 22, 2025)
❗️Russia resolutely condemns the United States’ strikes on several nuclear facilities in the Islamic Republic of Iran, carried out in the early hours of June 22, following recent attacks by Israel.
This reckless decision to launch missile and aerial strikes on the territory of a sovereign state, regardless of the justifications offered, constitutes a blatant violation of international law, the #UNCharter, and relevant resolutions by the UN Security Council, which has consistently and unequivocally deemed such actions unacceptable. Particularly concerning is the fact that the strikes were executed by a permanent member of the UN Security Council.
☢️ The consequences of this action, including potential radioactive effects, have yet to be determined. However, it is already evident that a dangerous escalation is underway, one that threatens to further destabilise security both in the region and globally. This has drastically increased the likelihood of a larger conflict in the #MiddleEast, a region already plagued by numerous crises.
The attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities have dealt a substantial blow to the global non-proliferation regime built around the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (#NPT), which raises particular concerns. They have significantly undermined both the credibility of the NPT and the integrity of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) monitoring and verification mechanisms that underpin it.
We expect the IAEA leadership to respond promptly, professionally, and transparently, avoiding vague language or efforts to hide behind political ‘equidistance.’ An unbiased and objective report from the Director General is required, to be submitted for consideration at the Agency’s upcoming special session.
Obviously, the UN Security Council must take a firm stance as well. Confrontational and destabilising actions taken by the United States and Israel must be collectively rejected.
☝️We call for an immediate end to aggression and for stepping up efforts to bring the situation back onto a peaceful, diplomatic track.
