🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's interview to the newspaper "Arguments and Facts" (October 21, 2024)
Key Points:
#BRICS
• BRICS epitomises the shifts that have long been underway in the global economy. New centres of economic growth are emerging, and alongside them comes financial influence, which in turn brings political influence.
• BRICS is a consortium where no single nation leads or is led, devoid of the bureaucratic machinery akin to that observed in Brussels, where EU officials impose decisions that contravene the will and interests of several member states, failing to align with the aspirations of voters across many countries.
• BRICS does not stand in opposition to any entity, nor does it orchestrate operations or initiate projects. BRICS is committed to enhancing the combined potential of its nations and devising collaborative strategies for harnessing these potentials for mutual benefit.
• What makes BRICS and other World Majority or Global East associations that do not include Western countries stand out, is that they are not created for the purpose of struggling or fighting with anyone. They are established to collectively benefit from their competitive advantages such as geographical location, shared history, cultural and humanitarian proximity <...>.
#USA
• The US is unwilling to relinquish the reins of power that they have held since World War II through the Bretton Woods institutions and through the role assigned to the US dollar in the international monetary system, even after free exchange of US dollars for gold had been cancelled.
• The key goal of the US ruling class is to make sure no one can undermine their dominance. This goal is illusory. The historical process is objectively heading in a different direction, and this has to be reckoned with.
• We are ready to interact with any administration voted in by the American people, but only if such a dialogue is mutually respectful, and both parties listen and hear what the other party has to say.
#Ukraine
• On multiple occasions, European leaders from Brussels have repeatedly made it clear that they must support Ukraine for as long as it takes, because Ukraine is fighting for the European values.
• It turns out that European leaders are still willing to uphold Nazi values, which is why denazification is not just a motto, but an objective of utmost importance.
#UN
• The United Nations is not a valiant knight expected to “charge in and extinguish the fire” upon witnessing injustice. The UN is an assembly of its member states, each with established rules, including the Security Council's veto rights. The United States has effectively exercised this right five times over the past year, blocking a resolution proposed by several countries, including Russia, demanding an immediate ceasefire. <...> Presently, the United States is taking every measure to avoid antagonising Israel.
• Nations such as India, Brazil, and African representatives should have long held permanent seats on the Security Council. This is essential to ensure representation of the World Majority.
#Finland#Sweden#NATO
• The zeal that the Finns and Swedes are showing in NATO, advocating for defeating Russia, is not only rooted in their historical instincts. They are also eager to show their Big Brothers in the North Atlantic Alliance that they have brought added value <...>.
• I am confident that reasonable people in Europe, who have learned the lessons taught by history, see this too, including in Finland and Sweden.
#Europe
• To reiterate, the so-called right-wing conservatives are loyal to their countries and their people. We will engage with anyone who approaches us with a proposal to talk, to seek common ground, and to think about how we can jointly make the lives of our citizens better.
#EurasianSecurity
• We suggest discussing the Eurasian continent-wide security architecture, emphasising the fact that its doors will be open to everyone, including countries from the West of the Eurasian continent.

Con il nostro giro del mondo, ora voliamo in #Serbia.
🇺🇸Con l’elezione di Biden negli Usa, le politiche statunitensi sono destinate a cambiare. I loro effetti si spingeranno sino ai Balcani, intaccando anche lo strano equilibrismo che costituisce il tratto peculiare della nazione tradizionalmente considerata egemone nell’area: la Serbia.
🇷🇸Visto l’appoggio concesso a Trump per il suo disinteresse sulla questione aperta del Kosovo, il presidente serbo Aleksander Vučić – già costretto ad affrontare i movimenti interni che denunciano una torsione autoritaria – dovrebbe essere annoverato tra gli sconfitti.
📥Non è così facile in Serbia, dove la politica estera si basa su quattro pilastri: i rapporti con Usa, Ue, ma anche Cina e Russia. Mantenere buoni rapporti con una nazione così influente è prerogativa essenziale. Nonostante tutto, l’elezione di Biden rischia di minare questo equilibrio.

‘This is like Hitler’s Kristallnacht when he killed about 90 people, and they want to kill much more.’
In an exclusive interview with RT Documentary, Emir Kusturica compared European politics to Hitler's actions. The director is sure it is impossible to cancel Russian culture. Moreover, he calls on his colleagues to open a new chapter of Russian history: ‘We must bring Dostoevsky to the planet, not only to Europe.’
Kusturica is the creator of the Kustendorf Film Festival. More than 500 films from all over the world have been selected for the festival this year. The Russian movie Clear Sky has been awarded the gold. Emir Kusturica is one of the subjects in our new documentary about Russia's friends in Europe, and there are many of them.

Serbian Woodstock 🎺
#video#Serbia
Every year, thousands of revellers gather in a small Serbian town to dance their feet off, immerse themselves in Balkan brass music and feel like characters in a Kusturica movie. It’s the annual trumpet festival in Guca that runs for five days straight.
Brass bands come from all over Serbia to compete for the ‘Golden Trumpet’ trophy, make a little money and get noticed by industry leaders. The Guca festival was first held in 1961 and has since grown into Serbia’s biggest music event.
Brass bands are an essential part of every major event, including births, weddings and funerals. Find out more about the festival and see what it’s like to party in Serbia - https://youtu.be/WwP_AdfNERg

🇷🇸#Serbia – 🇭🇺#Hungary: Two backpacks containing what Serbian authorities described as “US-made plastic explosives” were discovered in Kanjiza, a few hundred meters from the TurkStream pipeline linking the town to the Hungarian border.
The devices, along with detonators, were found yesterday by the Serbian military and police near the gas infrastructure.
Serbian officials have said that they had prior intelligence that a “man with military training from the migrant community” was planning a diversion targeting the pipeline.
On the Hungarian side, PM Viktor Orbán convened an emergency defence council, calling it a planned sabotage and warning of threats to energy security ahead of the April 12 elections.
The incident has escalated into a political crisis in Hungary, with opposition figures suggesting a possible "false flag" in order to influence the upcoming elections.
No arrests have been made, as suspects, motive, and responsibility remain unknown.

🇭🇺⛽️🪖Parte de TurkStream será protegido por el Ejército húngaro
Fuerzas húngaras se encargarán de la proteccióndel tramo del gasoducto TurkStream en territorio del país, desde Serbia hasta Eslovaquia, declaró el canciller, Peter Szijjarto.
Cuatro países, Hungría, Serbia, Turquía y Rusia, acordaron tomar medidas decisivas para proteger el gasoducto, agregó.
Anteriormente, el presidente de Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, informó durante una conversación telefónica con el primer ministro húngaro, Viktor Orban, sobre el hallazgo de una bomba a pocos cientos de metros del gasoducto entre Hungría y Serbia.
Según Szijjarto, el último intento de sabotaje "encaja bien en una serie" de acciones de Ucrania contra el suministro energético de Hungría.
Los informes preliminares de los servicios serbios apuntan a un inmigrante con formación militar como sospechoso en el incidente con bomba en Serbia.
