🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's interview to Rossiya Segodnya news agency (November 5, 2024)
#BRICS
• The XVI BRICS Summit in Kazan came as a landmark international event not only of the year, but in recent history as well. Its success highlighted the futility of attempts to isolate Russia internationally.
• As we sensed during the Summit, [the creation of a payment network that is resistant to external risks] is what non-Western countries are increasingly interested in.
#MiddleEast
Since the onset of unprecedented crisis [in the Middle East] in October 2023, the BRICS countries have come together to support the rights of the civilian population in the Gaza Strip.
• Shortly after the beginning of the Israeli operation in Gaza, we coordinated with our BRICS partners and other like-minded nations to submit a draft resolution to the UN Security Council, calling for an end to military actions and for unhindered humanitarian access to Gaza. However, this resolution was blocked by the United States and its allies.
#NATO
• If [long-range] weapons are employed [by the Kiev regime to attack the territory of Russia], it would mean that not only Ukraine but also NATO countries are openly fighting Russia.
• Our opponents should not disillusion themselves. In the event of aggression by NATO or its individual member states against our country, an appropriate response will ensue, in full compliance with Russia's sovereign right to self-defence and with the use of any meansnecessary to ensure its security, as stipulated in the UN Charter. And none of the instigators will be able to lie low, not across the Atlantic Ocean nor across the English Channel.
#Ukraine#UN
• Kiev continues to exert pressure on Antonio Guterres, demonstrating a blatant disregard for the UN Charter in an attempt to compel him and the entire UN Secretariat to align completely with Ukraine and its Western sponsors. This approach directly contravenes the constituent instrument of the Organisation, specifically paragraph 2 of Article 100 of the UN Charter, which prohibits any member state from attempting to influence the Secretary-General or other UN representatives.
#Transnistria#Moldova
• The situation surrounding Transnistria is complex. <...> I trust that the Moldovan authorities will exercise sufficient common sense to avoid ill-considered actions that could exacerbate tensions.
• There are suggestions that the regional context necessitates new dialogue platforms on the Transnistrian issue, questioning the value of the 5+2 format. We disagree with this view and believe that external assistance to facilitate direct dialogue between Chisinau and Tiraspol is essential.
#USA
• Washington continues to actively perpetuate its own myth of Russian interference in any election, whether "at home" or in any third country. If an election results in a victory for forces undesirable to the United States, Russia is immediately blamed for the "wrong" electoral choice of the voters.
• The Americans are attempting to attribute to us actions they themselves are engaged in. As the saying goes, God marks the crook.
#Georgia
• The United States and the EU are artificially trying to frame the current electoral process in Georgia as a strategic choice between Russia and the West, thereby attempting to present Georgia and other post-Soviet states with a false dilemma.
• In reality, it is a choice between sovereign development based on national interests and external governance, between traditional values and neo-liberal principles imposed from outside.
#SouthCaucasus
• We commend the significant progress made within the Azerbaijani-Armenian peace process.
• Unlike Western pseudo-mediators, we refrain from pressuring our partners into hastily concluding a peace treaty. We are convinced that a rushed peace, lacking comprehensive consideration of Baku and Yerevan's positions and the realities on the ground, would be counterproductive, creating additional risks of tension and potential conflict escalation.

Nous avons besoin de toutes les voix, de toutes les idées – et de tout le leadership des femmes et des filles du monde entier.
Et les hommes et les garçons doivent également prendre toute leur part, en faisant preuve de solidarité pour faire avancer l’égalité.

La sessione urgente del Consiglio per i diritti umani delle Nazioni Unite si è conclusa con l’adozione, per “consenso”, di una risoluzione relativa alle vicende che stanno accadendo in Afghanistan.
I talebani vengono sollecitati a rispettare le norme vincolanti del diritto internazionale, la libertà di circolazione delle persone ed il loro diritto di abbandonare il Paese.
È assente, però, il riferimento a due elementi: la condanna dei talebani per le azioni commesse e la costituzione di una commissione d’inchiesta sulla vicenda (come, invece, accaduto nel caso della sessione speciale sulla Siria).
In tal senso, la rappresentante permanente dell’Austria ha dichiarato: “Qual è lo scopo di questa risoluzione, se non concordiamo nemmeno sulla condanna delle violazioni e degli abusi dei diritti umani?”
