#ПамятиДипломатов
В рамках серии «История российской дипломатии» АО «Марка» инициировало выпуск в обращение государственного знака почтовой оплаты, посвящённого 3️⃣5️⃣0️⃣-летию со дня рождения российского государственного деятеля и дипломата Бориса Ивановича Куракина.
В плеяде петровских дипломатов #Куракин занимал одно из первых мест. Многие современники отмечали его высокую эрудицию и трудолюбие. Борис Иванович оставил огромное документальное наследие: обширную дипломатическую и деловую переписку, «протоколы посольств», наставления по практике ведения переговоров, дневники, путевые заметки, собственные сочинения по истории эпохи Петра I и Северной войны.
Его архив, опубликованный лишь частично, содержит уникальные материалы, иллюстрирующие события трёхсотлетней давности, которые и поныне служат бесценным источником для изучения истории дипломатии России.
На почтовой марке изображён портрет государственного деятеля Бориса Куракина на фоне здания Двенадцати коллегий в Санкт-Петербурге. Дополнительно к выпуску почтовой марки изданы конверты первого дня и изготовлены штемпеля специального гашения для Москвы, Санкт-Петербурга и Пензы.

The Sky News Australia segment aired on The Macpherson Angle on 19 July mocked the Russian Embassy’s concern over the spread of hate speech stemming from comments by Australian military personnel who train the Ukrainian army to be “best skilled in killing Russians”.
What is a matter of laughter and jokes for Sky News Australia evokes painful historical parallels for us. In a directive to Alfred Rosenberg dated 23 July 1942 concerning the implementation of Generalplan Ost, Adolf Hitler wrote: “Speaking militarily, we must kill three to four million Russians every year”.
Notably, the presenters and contributors to the segment selectively quoted our statement, concealing from their audience the very points we were making:
🔹The “kill Russians” narrative targets the entire ethnic group.
🔹Australians of Russian origin may also be placed at risk as a result of such rhetoric.
🔹The “skills” provided by the Australian Defence Force are being used by the Ukrainian army to murder civilians.
Furthermore, Sky News Australia never bothered to examine the root causes of the conflict in Ukraine, where anti-Russian hate speech and murderous violence have become standard practice of the neo-Nazi Kiev regime since 2014. Its ideology is quite vividly illustrated by the words of former Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) of Ukraine Andrey Parubiy, who stated on 4 September 2018 that he supported direct democracy, and that the person who most practiced direct democracy was Adolf Hitler in the 1930s.
Welcome to Ukrainian democracy as it is, dear Sky News Australia. This is what you and the West in general are protecting and helping so fiercely.
Neo-Nazi ideology and practices are what we, Russians, are fighting against. During the Second World War, we defeated German and other European Nazis who espoused the same views and likewise sought to be best at “killing Russians”, as well as people of other “inferior races”. That struggle cost our country 27 million lives – a sacrifice too great to allow Nazism to raise its head again.
Last but not least, if hatred against one ethnic group is tolerated, accepted and amplified, no other group will remain immune. Hate speech begets violence and terrorism with grave consequences for society. If this were not the case, there would have been no reason to establish the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion.

⚡️ Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik:
💬 Over the past week, the number of Russian civilians killed or injured in attacks by Ukrainian neo-Nazis rose sharply.
Facing setbacks on the battlefield, Kiev redirected its capabilities toward terrorist attacks on civilian targets in Russia, with more than 1,000 strikes recorded daily. Over 400 civilians were killed or injured during the week.
The Zelensky regime used military resources supplied by its Western sponsors to attack Russia’s civilian population. Residential areas, medical facilities, essential infrastructure and civilian transport came under fire.
The highest numbers of civilian casualties were recorded in the Belgorod, Moscow, Zaporozhye and Kherson Regions, as well as the DPR and LPR. Ukrainian militants deliberately targeted densely populated areas in an effort to inflict maximum damage.
On July 13-19, Ukrainian neo-Nazi attacks resulted in 433 civilian casualties: 69 people, including two children, were killed, while 364 others, including 12 children, were injured.
Over the past seven days, Ukrainian militants fired at least 7,168 munitions at civilian targets on Russian territory.

🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's opening remarks at the Russia-ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (Manila, July 22, 2026)
💬 Sergey Lavrov: Before beginning my remarks, I would like to express my deepest condolences to the people of Thailand and to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives in the recent devastating fire in Bangkok.
We wish all those injured a speedy recovery.
***
First of all, I would like to thank the Philippine ASEAN Chairmanship for its warm hospitality and the excellent organisation of this meeting, which is being held in the year marking the 35th anniversary of Russia-ASEAN relations.
We are also grateful to Myanmar, the country coordinator for the #RussiaASEAN dialogue, for its efforts to advance our strategic partnership within this format.
In 2027, the coordinating role will pass to Vietnam, and we have no doubt that the steady development of Russia-ASEAN relations will continue.
At yesterday evening’s excellent reception and before the meeting began this morning, many of our ASEAN colleagues and friends recalled the Russia-ASEAN Summit held in Kazan just over a month ago. They spoke highly of the meeting, which clearly demonstrated the mutual commitment of Russia and ASEAN to further rapprochement and broader cooperation based on equality, mutual respect and mutual benefit.
👉 More on the Russia-ASEAN Summit marking the 35th anniversary of #RussiaASEAN relations
Our Leaders reached important agreements in the areas of politics and security, countering new threats and challenges, and developing trade, economic, investment, cultural, educational and humanitarian ties.
We see promising prospects for cooperation in food and energy security, digital transformation and the platform economy. The four fundamental documents adopted at the Kazan Summit (1, 2, 3, 4) provide clear guidelines for our joint work in all these areas.
☝️ Russia firmly believes that ASEAN is our reliable partner and like-minded ally.
For our part, we consistently support #ASEAN’s central role in regional affairs and contribute to strengthening the ASEAN-centred system of interstate relations based on international law, openness, equality and – I would particularly emphasise – consideration for the interests of all participants.
Our common efforts will also be greatly assisted by the shared understanding of international developments reaffirmed in Kazan, as well as the Leaders’ commitment to building a fairer and more sustainable #MultipolarWorld order, strengthening a balanced security architecture in the Asia-Pacific region and, of course, expanding comprehensive cooperation across our vast Eurasian continent.
🤝 I hope that today’s meeting will strengthen our cooperation in all these areas, give fresh impetus to implementing the agreements reached at the Kazan Summit and help unlock the vast potential of Russia–ASEAN cooperation.
