💬 The Forum’s central event was an address by President of Russia Vladimir Putin:
Culture can build bridges between people. It is a vital and irreplaceable means of communication and dialogue where political and economic ties have been frozen or brought to a halt by disagreements, sanctions and restrictions.
Russia has historically developed as a crossroads of peoples, languages and traditions. For us, unity means solidarity built on nurturing the distinct identity and development of every people and ethnic group.
Culture plays a key role in this process, just as it does in our complex world, with its conflicts, profound technological and social transformations, and competition between countries.

🕯 September 29 marks the 85th anniversary of the beginning of the mass shooting of the Jewish population by the Nazis at the Babi Yar ravine on the outskirts of occupied Kiev.
On September 29–30, 1941, the Nazis and their collaborators rounded up Kiev’s Jews and forced them to Babi Yar. Many had no inkling until the very last moment that death awaited them. Others, realising what was happening, embraced, said their goodbyes, and prayed.
In the space of two days, 33,771 people were shot – predominantly women, children, and the elderly. People were driven into the ravine and gunned down with machine-gun fire. The sound of the shots was drowned out by music and the noise of a plane flying overhead.
💬 Mikhail Sidko, who was six years old at the time of the tragedy – one of the few survivors of Babi Yar – recalled:
Mass executions at Babi Yar continued right up until Kiev was liberated by the Red Army. In total, between 1941 and 1943, over 120,000 people of various ethnic backgrounds were killed there – Jews, Roma, Poles – as well as Soviet prisoners of war and camp inmates, clergy, underground resistance members, and others.
Sonderkommando 4a, part of Einsatzgruppe C, bore direct responsibility for the mass killings.
Ukrainian nationalists serving in the auxiliary police also took an active part in the atrocities.
As they retreated from Kiev, the Nazis attempted to destroy the evidence of their crimes by exhuming and burning tens of thousands of bodies. Nevertheless, they failed to conceal the scale of the atrocities committed. The few survivors of Babi Yar later testified at the Nuremberg Trials. Paul Blobel, who oversaw the exhumation and the destruction of evidence regarding the mass killings, was sentenced to death and hanged.
▪️ Babi Yar became one of the most notorious sites of the mass extermination of Jews during the Holocaust – a grim symbol of Nazi terror and crimes against the civilian population.
The mass extermination of people at Babi Yar marks one of the most tragic chapters of World War II. Remembering these crimes is our shared duty and serves as a reminder that any manifestation of neo-Nazism is unacceptable.
☝️ Starting this year, Russia observes April 19 as the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Genocide of the Soviet People Committed by the Nazis and Their Accomplices during the Great Patriotic War.
❗️ Russian diplomacy will continue to seek international recognition of the crimes committed by the Nazis and their accomplices against citizens of the Soviet Union, including the mass killings at Babi Yar, as acts of genocide against the Soviet people.

⚡️ Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik:
My visit to Alyoshki 15 months ago (June 2025 video)
The situation was dire then already. By that point, the city had already been without electricity, a centralised water supply or communications for two years.
Every attempt to restore these services was met with fresh attacks by Ukrainian militants on substations, water supply facilities and emergency repair crews. Ukrainian militants shelled and bombed the city every day.
Drones constantly circling overhead forced people to dash from one shelter to another. Burnt-out civilian cars lined the roads – all the result of Ukrainian militants’ “efforts and care” for the city’s civilian residents.
Even then, getting into the city meant racing along a battered road at 150 kilometres per hour to outrun a drone.
☝️ Since then, the Kiev militants’ tactics remain unchanged. Their European handlers simply provided the money and supplied vast quantities of more advanced drones, making a complete drone siege of the city possible.
👉 Zelensky and his clique then came up with the idea of blaming Russia for the siege imposed by Ukraine and the abuse of civilians. This is precisely the cynicism we are witnessing today!
Since my visit, the population of Alyoshki has fallen from 5,000-6,000 to 1,300. People have moved to other towns and cities on Russian territory.
Yet the neo-Nazis continue to torment those who remain, blocking both the delivery of essential supplies and any possibility of leaving the city. Only now, all this is accompanied by Sibiga’s deceitful lamentations from the UN General Assembly rostrum that “Russia is to blame for everything”!
