Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova on Russia's contribution to strengthening humanitarian cooperation in public health
💬 Russia is strengthening humanitarian cooperation in sanitary and epidemiological well-being, infection prevention and control with dozens of countries in Eurasia, Africa, Latin America, Central and Southeast Asia.
We provide our partners with logistic, scientific and practical assistance in preventing and responding to epidemics, we help train personnel in partner countries, and we develop and implement joint scientific research programmes.
We trained specialists from #ASEAN countries in modern methods of infectious diseases diagnosis and prevention in Vladivostok. About 100 ASEAN specialists attended the courses in March, May and November.
We continue to work actively with our colleagues to combat coronavirus. Let me remind you that Sputnik V was the world's first registered vaccine against the coronavirus. Our vaccine has been approved in more than 70 countries worldwide. We continue to work towards eradicating this pandemic. Russia has hosted regular conferences on COVID-19 and on combating antibiotic resistance, each attended by over 200 participants from dozens of countries, including the EAEU, the CIS, Asia, Africa and Latin America.

💬« Cette initiative, d’ailleurs vivement soutenue par le président américain Trump lors d’une conversation téléphonique avec le président russe le 29 avril, a provoqué une réaction nerveuse et hystérique rue Bankovaïa. Zelensky a tenté, maladroitement, d’en minimiser l’importance, puis a fait allusion à d’éventuelles frappes de drones sur le défilé de la place Rouge. »

⭕« Les nazis résistent farouchement au Jour de la Victoire, comme ils l'ont fait il y a 80 ans en Allemagne et comme ils le font aujourd'hui en Ukraine », a déclaré Maria #Zakharova en réponse à une demande de commentaires de l'agence TASS concernant les propos de Zelensky sur la menace de drones, le 9 mai.
Auparavant, le service de presse de #Zelensky avait diffusé des images de son discours d'ouverture du sommet de la Communauté politique européenne à Erevan. Selon la traduction officielle, il a déclaré que des drones ukrainiens pourraient survoler la place Rouge le Jour de la Victoire.

#Opinion by Russia's MFA spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova
💬 The Ukrainian social media is packed with the obituaries of Ukrainian military personnel killed on April 13 in the strike on a venue in Sumy that brought together commanders from Ukrainian Seversk Tactical Group.
Here is an account of the death of Ukrainian fighter Vladimir Zherebtsov. Here’s an obituary for Ukrainian army colonel Yury Yula.
Here’s the statement by the mayor of the Ukrainian city Konotop Artyom Semenikhin containing direct accusation of Head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration Vladimir Artyukh who convened a meeting of Ukrainian combatants with the participation of women and children.
Semenikhin openly demanded resignation of General Artyukh, who uses terrorist “civilian human shield” tactics to protect his thugs.
This Kiev regime’s war crime was so obvious even to the Ukrainian people and the Kiev-controlled media that voices of outrage were heard among Zelensky’s inner circle as well. Verkhovnaya Rada Deputy Maryana Bezuglaya publicly demanded to find out who, fearing a Russian strike on a legitimate target, ordered to use women and children as human shields during the military event.
Zelensky confirmed every accusation coming his way by firing Head of the Sumy Military Administration Artyukh yesterday, thus shifting the responsibility for this hideous war crime, which this time was directed against his own citizens, onto him.
Does UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres know about all this? The day that followed the attack on a perfectly legitimate target, he was“deeply alarmed and shocked” by Russia’s Sunday missile strike on Sumy and accused our country of “attacking civilians.”
I also have a question for Kallas and Merz who deliberately went ahead with verbal manipulations and poured dirt over Russia on Sunday and Monday. How are you now going to justify what your underling did?
For some reason, representatives of our embassies in Sweden and Lithuania were summoned to the local foreign ministries. Apparently, poisoned by the fumes of competitive Russophobia, they were trying to take advantage of anything they could lay their hands on to further damage relations with our country which, as is, are unlikely to get revived for many years to come.
When the Ukrainians attacked civilians on the Crimean Bridge, when SBU terrorists blew up Russian journalists in the Moscow suburbs and in St Petersburg, when drones attacked the Moscow Kremlin, and when Ukrainian punishers committed genocide and mass murder in the Kursk Region and buried old people alive in the village of Russkoye Porechnoye, these Euro peacemakers kept silent, and all the UN Secretariat did was diplomatically “call for peace.”
When the gunmen get-together was liquidated, everyone started blaming Russia at once... When it became clear that the local authorities purposely used children as a shield to protect these ghouls, everyone went silent.
If you think of it, after these publications and dismissals, they should now kneel in repentance before the whole world.
The above facts not only prove, but demonstrate with disarming directness that the Kiev regime uses women and children as human shields, and then cast these staged performances as acts of alleged Russian aggression. The Ukrainian Nazi militants are, in fact, taking their own fellow citizens hostage. The blood of civilian victims is on the hands of Zelensky and his henchmen, as well as the conniving Western mob.
The hoax in Bucha and the unrelenting attacks by the Ukrainian armed forces on Russian energy facilities even during the negotiated moratorium demonstrably show that this hideous circus has quite a few bloody tricks up its sleeve.
