🇷🇺 On November 4, our country celebrates National Unity Day.#OnThisDay 412 years ago, a popular uprising liberated Moscow from Polish-Lithuanian invaders. Thousands of our country’s residents ofdifferent ethnicities, social strata & religions managed to close ranks to counter the existential threat and gave an example of genuine courage and loyalty to their Fatherland. In the early 17th century, the Russian state was going through one of the hardest periods in its history called the Time of Troubles. The Moscow branch of the Ryurik dynasty that used to rule the country for seven centuries, died out. Numerous impostors began to claim the throne, pretending to be Tsar Ivan IV's son, the deceased Tsarevich Dmitry. ▪️Our country was one step away from losing its sovereignty and could have vanished from the map of the world for good. The first of the impostors, False Dmitry I, managed to seize the throne in 1605 thanks to the support of Sigismund III King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania. The adventurer hoped to annex the Seversk and Smolensk regions to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and spread Catholicism in Russia, but he miscalculated – a year later the unpopular False Dmitry I was deposed by the boyars, and the throne was taken by Vassily Shuisky, a representative of the Suzdal branch of the Rurikovich dynasty. The next impostor, False Dmitry II, was proposed in 1606 by Sigismund III’s opponents from among the Polish nobility. The north-west and north of Russian lands fell under the control of foreign invaders, and False Dmitry II himself settled in the town of Tushino, 17 kilometers from the Kremlin. In such circumstances Vassily Shuisky appealed to Sweden for help. Sigismund III, who was at war with the Swedes at the time, used this as a pretext for open intervention. In the autumn of 1609, Polish-Lithuanian troops besieged Smolensk and occupied a number of Russian cities. After False Dmitry II fled under the onslaught of the army of the Russian commander Mikhail Skopin-Shuisky in early 1610, some of the boyars who had been in Tushino made a compact with Sigismund III on naming his son Wladislaw tsar-elect. Power in the country passed to the boyar council who were forced to swear allegiance to Wladislaw. The interventionist troops occupied the Kremlin. ⚔️ Patriarch Hermogenes of Moscow and All Russia issued a call to resist foreign invaders, but the first national resistance alliance to gather in Ryazan was defeated. The initiator of the second resistance, the zemstvo headman Kuzma Minin, managed to gather an impressive army in Nizhny Novgorod of over 10,000 landowners, peasants, Cossacks, riflemen and nobles. Prince Dmitry Pozharsky, who was in that region for medical treatment, was elected to lead the army. In August 1612, they approached Moscow and in autumn defeated the superior forces of the interventionists in fierce battles. 👑 The liberation of the capital and the consolidation of the masses were a powerful boost for the revival of the Russian state. In 1613, the Zemsky Sobor (a nation-wide assembly) elected a new Russian tsar, Mikhail Romanov, the first of the new dynasty. By 1618, the last troops of Polish-Lithuanian and Swedish invaders were pushed out of Russia. 💬 President of Russia Vladimir Putin(Sevastopol, November 4, 2021): The people of Russia <...> came together <...> to defend their homeland, chase out the invaders and traitors, restore a strong state, and stop sectarian strife. They took on the task of saving the country and paved the way for Russia’s revival and strengthening. More than four centuries have passed since then, but the feat accomplished by the people still strikes us with its powerful outflow of patriotic feelings, and the fact that people came to understand that there was nothing more important than their Motherland’s destiny and future. 📜Learn more in our in-depth historical delve.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s greetings on Russian Language Day 💬 This June 6, we celebrate the 225th birthday of Alexander Pushkin, the great Russian poet. The UN Russian Language Day is observed on the same day. Russian culture and science created their universally acclaimed masterpieces in the language which served as the mother tongue for Alexander Pushkin and Leo Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky and Ivan Turgenev. The role the Russian language plays in terms of enabling people of various ethnic backgrounds to communicate internationally can hardly be underestimated. Today, over 250 million people speak this language around the world. The fact that various multilateral structures have designated Russian as their official or working language demonstrates just how relevant it is in today’s world. Russian Language Day has been listed in the UN’s International Days and Weeks calendar as part of the programme to promote multilingualism and cultural diversity. The Russian language’s broad dissemination around the world, as well as our common past and far-reaching economic and people-to-people ties have come together to create a solid foundation for reinforcing integration processes across the European space. <...> 🤝 I am convinced that marking Russian Language Day, which is timed to coincide with the jubilee of our great poet, helps promote international cultural and educational cooperation and maintain an atmosphere of friendship and trust among nations.

🗓#OnThisDay În urmă cu 212 ani, la 26 noiembrie 1812, pe râul Berezina a început ultima bătălie importantă din Războiul pentru Apărarea Patriei din 1812, care a dus la înfrângerea armatei lui Napoleon. https://t.me/MFARussia/22995

👩‍🚀#OnThisDay 61 years ago, Soviet cosmonaut & parachute enthusiast Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space. Her mission aboard the Vostok-6 spacecraft was a complete world sensation, inspired millions of women in the Soviet Union and abroad. The issue of launching a female cosmonaut was raised immediately after Yury Gagarin’s triumphant return from orbit. The goal was to compare the impact of outer space on male and female organisms and to study the possibility of launching civilian specialists into space in the future. 🚀 The Vostok-6 blasted off the Baikonur Cosmodrome on June 16 1963. The flight itself lasted for two days,22 hours and 50 minutes, the spacecraft orbited Earth 48 times. Until now Tereshkova remains the only female cosmonaut to undertake a solo space mission. 🎖 Valentina, then only 26, lifted off as a Lieutenant and came back a Captain. Three days after landing, she was awarded Hero of the Soviet Union title. Later, she received Hero of Socialist Labour of Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Vietnam and Mongolia and became an honorary citizen of 18 Russian and foreign cities. Tereshkova became the 6th Soviet cosmonaut, the 12th person in space and the youngest woman in orbit.

⚓️#OnThisDay in 1941, the first Arctic convoy, codenamed Dervish, arrived at Archangelsk harbour. Seven vessels were escorted by the UK military ships. The convoy sailed from Liverpool with a stopover in Hvalfjörður, Iceland, and laid out a route for the further escort of ships delivering strategic cargoes to the northern ports of the Soviet Union during the Second World War. In accordance with their commitments made at the Moscow Conference in 1941, the Lend-Lease Act and other agreements, the United States and the UK used Arctic routes to supply the USSR with armaments, military hardware and other cargoes. The ships returned with strategic raw materials and other supplies. Sea deliveries of military cargoes through the Black and Baltic Seas were ruled out because of Hitler’s rapid advance towards Crimea and Leningrad whereas the route across the Pacific Ocean was too long. The Arctic route was the shortest but the Soviet Union did not have a fleet to carry half a million tones of military supplies. Given this, British sailors took over the burden of Arctic sea transport and its protection. The convoys were formed in the UK and after refueling in Iceland headed to northern Soviet ports. As a rule, an Arctic convoy consisted of seven to eight loaded transport ships, which sailed in line-ahead formation constantly changing their course to thwart submarine attacks. Arctic convoys became a vivid example of combat teamwork maintained by the navies of the anti-Hitler coalition during WWII. Their history keeps many examples of heroism and self-sacrifice of British, American and Soviet sailors and pilots, as well as citizens of other countries, who escorted the convoys in harsh polar conditions. 🕯 During the war, a total of 78 convoys were dispatched, with 85 merchant ships and 16 British Navy warships failing to reach their destination. More than 3,000 British sailors lost their lives. 💬 Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova (excerpt from the briefing of August 19, 2021): Russia and the UK are now paying tribute to the memory, heroism and dedication of those involved in the convoys. Their heroic crossing of the North Atlantic is forever inscribed in golden letters in the history of the liberation of Europe from Nazism. The further course of the war confirmed the Arctic Convoy’s significant contribution to the success of the joint struggle against the common enemy, which cannot be overestimated.

🔬«Чем больше мы познаем неизменные законы природы, тем все более невероятными становятся для нас чудеса»🔬 #OnThisDay мы отмечаем 216 лет со дня рождения Чарльза Дарвина – великого натуралиста и путешественника, который изменил наше представление о 🌿 природе и эволюции. Он был одним из первых, кто пришел к выводу и обосновал идею о том, что все виды живых 🐜 организмов эволюционируют со временем и происходят от общих предков. Основным механизмом эволюции видов Дарвин назвал естественный отбор. Дарвин совершил свое знаменитое путешествие на корабле «Beagle», во время которого собрал бесценные сведения о видах, среде обитания и естественном отборе. А спустя ⏳ годы его идеи повлияли и на русских исследователей природы — от путешественников до селекционеров, изучавших евразийскую флору и фауну. В 19 веке его труды активно переводили на русский язык, а российские ученые, такие как К. А. Тимирязев, стали одни из главных сторонников теории эволюции. Первый перевод «Происхождения видов» на русский язык появился всего через 5️⃣ лет после оригинальной публикации, что показывает, насколько тесно переплетены научные традиции наших стран. В 2009 году, когда отмечалось 200-летие со дня рождения Дарвина и 150-летие публикации «Происхождения видов», в Дарвиновском музее в Москве открылась крупнейшая в 🇷🇺 России выставка, посвященная его наследию, подтверждая то, что научные идеи не знают границ. В честь ученого были назначены две награды: медаль Дарвина и плакетка Дарвина, которые ежегодно вручаются Лондонским 👑 королевским обществом за выдающиеся достижения в биологии и тех областях науки, в которых работал Чарлз Дарвин. Сегодня наследие Дарвина продолжает объединять ученых по всему 🌎 миру в стремлении понять тайны жизни на Земле.

#OnThisDay исполняется 10 лет со дня установления Международного дня женщин и девочек в науке (IDWGS) и 30 лет со дня принятия Пекинской декларации и Платформы действий — двух важных вех в глобальных усилиях по продвижению 👩‍🦰 гендерного равенства и расширению прав и возможностей женщин. Несмотря на некоторый прогресс, достигнутый за последнее десятилетие, с переменным успехом в зависимости от дисциплины и страны, гендерное равенство в науке все еще остается недостижимым. Сегодня только каждый третий учёный — женщина. В таких передовых областях, как искусственный 🤖 интеллект, только каждый пятый профессионал (22%) — женщина. В Великобритании мы отдаем дань уважения таким женщинам-ученым, как астроном Каролина Гершель, ставшая первой женщиной, получившей оплату за научную работу, физик Мэри Сомервиль, которая стала первой женщиной, презентовавшей научную работу в Королевском обществе, и первой 👩‍⚕ женщине-врачу Элизабет Гарретт Андерсон. Среди женщин-ученых 20 века широко известна Дама Энн Макларен, фундаментальные достижения которой в 🩸 генетике проложили путь к развитию экстракорпорального оплодотворения. Ее новаторская работа привела к рождению первого «ребенка из пробирки». В то же время данные показывают, что в Великобритании женщины составляют лишь 30 процентов сотрудников в сфере STEM (наука, технология, инженерия и математика), а в некоторых областях, таких как компьютерные науки (23 процента) и инженерия и технологии (21 процент), данные еще более тревожные. Устранение гендерного разрыва в науке требует разрушения стереотипов, продвижения образцов для подражания, которые вдохновляют девочек, поддержки улучшения положения женщин с помощью целевых программ и содействия созданию 🟰 инклюзивной среды посредством политики и действий, которые способствуют инклюзивности, разнообразию и равенству.
