🗓 On September 30, 2022, following referendums, the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions officially became part of the Russian Federation.

✍️ Looking back at #HowItHappened (Signing of the treaties on the accession of the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions to Russia)

In the referendums held on September 23-27, 2022, residents of the four regions made a historic decision that determined their future. International observers from Italy, Germany, Venezuela, Latvia and other countries (133 in total) who monitored the voting recognised the results as legitimate.

In 2014, the Kiev regime unleashed full-scale hostilities against the civilian population of Donbass, while neo-Nazis and radicals intimidated and attacked people in Zaporozhye and other regions as well. For eight long years, people endured relentless shelling, terrorist attacks and persecution.

Despite shelling and numerous provocations by the Kiev regime, people went to the polls and expressed their will.

🗳 Four years ago, the people voted in favour of joining Russia:

• DPR – 99.23%, with a turnout of 97.5%;
• LPR – 98.42%, with a turnout of 92.6%;
• Zaporozhye Region – 93.11%, with a turnout of 85.4%;
• Kherson Region – 87.05%, with a turnout of 76.9%.

Behind these figures are the lives of millions of people and their hopes for safety, for the freedom to speak their native language, to honour their ancestors – true heroes of the Great Patriotic War (instead of Hitler’s henchmen) – to preserve their culture and raise their children without fearing for their lives.

❗️ Russia’s position remains unchanged: the people of Donbass and Novorossiya exercised their legitimate right to self-determination, enshrined in the UN Charter, the 1966 International Covenants on Human Rights and the 1975 CSCE Helsinki Final Act.

💬 Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s address at the General Debate of #UNGA81 (New York, September 26, 2026):
Having launched the special military operation in 2022 to protect the people of Donbass and Novorossiya from extermination by the Kiev regime, Russia continues to fight for their security and rights in full accordance with the letter and spirit of the UN Charter.

Our struggle for truth and justice will be carried through to the end: the objectives of the special military operation will be achieved, threats to Russia’s security will be eliminated, and peaceful life will be restored.


And we will do this

🎙 Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik’s remarks at the side event “Systematic Violations of International Human Rights Law and International Humanitarian Law in the Context of the Evolving Conflict in Europe in 2026” (Geneva, September 28, 2026)

💬 Even before Ukraine gained statehood in 1991, its 1990 Declaration of State Sovereignty stipulated that “The people of Ukraine shall be the single source of the state authority in the Republic”.

The same document stated that “the Ukrainian nation has exercised its inalienable right to self-determination” to leave the USSR. Thirty-five years ago, the Western world applauded this move and swiftly and widely recognised the new state that had appeared on the map.

12 years ago, in response to the illegal coup in Kiev and the unconstitutional so-called “anti-terrorist operation” launched against them, the residents of Ukraine’s Lugansk and Donetsk regions likewise exercised their “inalienable right to self-determination” and voted in referendums to leave Ukraine. Yet this expression of the will of more than four million people in Donbass received no such approval in the West.

👉 This exercise of direct democracy by a population outraged by the coup was branded “separatism”, “occupation” and an attack on “Ukraine’s territorial integrity”.

Exactly four years ago, the residents of the Lugansk and Donetsk People’s Republics and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions also exercised their “inalienable right to self-determination” and voted in referendums to join the Russian Federation. Since then, these regions have been new constituent entities of Russia and part of its territory under the Constitution.

👉 Yet both Kiev and the West chose to describe this exercise of direct democracy as “Russian occupation” as well.

A few days ago, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres displayed similar double standards.

In his view, the question of self-determination for Crimea, Donbass and Novorossiya must be approached exclusively through Ukraine’s “territorial integrity”, whereas the issue of Greenland must be resolved on the basis of both Denmark’s territorial integrity and the right of Greenland’s population to self-determination.

In other words, the rights of the people of Greenland are one thing, while those of the people of Crimea and Donbass are something else entirely. The key here is not to get the two mixed up…

#KievRegimeCrimes

⚡️ Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik:

💬 Over the past week, Kiev regime militants focused their attacks on medical personnel, emergency workers and volunteers. They repeatedly targeted medical teams in the Belgorod and Zaporozhye regions. These crimes resulted in the death of one medical worker and injuries to seven others.

In the Zaporozhye Region, a terrorist attack on a civilian vehicle delivering humanitarian aid killed three volunteers from the Omsk Region and injured another.

The highest numbers of civilian casualties over the past week were recorded in the Belgorod, Zaporozhye, Kursk and Kherson regions and the LPR.

Kiev’s armed groups continued their criminal strategy of “energy terror” in the Belgorod, Zaporozhye, Kursk and Kherson regions, the LPR and DPR, and the Krasnodar Territory. Ukrainian strikes on electrical substations left communities in the Krasnoyaruzhsky and Grayvoronsky districts of the Belgorod Region without electricity. A drone strike also damaged a radiation monitoring station at the Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant.

On September 21-27, shelling by Ukrainian neo-Nazis resulted in 315 civilian casualties: 274 civilians were injured, including nine children, and 41 people were killed.

Over the seven days, Ukrainian militants fired at least 8,033 munitions at civilian facilities on Russian territory.

🎙 On September 30, at the 63rd Session of the UN Human Rights Council, Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik spoke about the catastrophic humanitarian situation in #Alyoshki and the de facto blockade imposed on the city by the Kiev regime:

I am convinced that many needed to hear the truth about the situation Ukrainian militants have created in this city.


***

💬 We are compelled to exercise our right of reply in response to the statements made by the Ukrainian delegation.

We have just witnessed Kiev’s representatives use the HRC platform to promote a false and provocative campaign ostensibly aimed at protecting and saving the residents of Alyoshki in the Kherson Region.

☝️ Yet everything we heard was cynical lies and manipulation.

The truth is that, for more than two years, Ukrainian militants, acting on criminal orders from Kiev’s political leadership, have been committing genocide and making life unbearable in this city inhabited by Russian citizens.

Ukrainian militants shell the town every hour. They are not only destroying its power and water supply systems, but also repeatedly attacking emergency crews working to restore its infrastructure.

Ukrainian drones have laid siege to the town, laying mines along access routes and attacking any civilian vehicle attempting to enter or leave this long-suffering settlement. They have attacked more than 15 ambulances, struck the town’s hospital dozens of times and bombed its food market, killing and injuring civilians.

❗️ We demand that Ukraine stop spreading false statements.

We also call on international human rights mechanisms, including the HRC, to provide an impartial and objective assessment of Kiev’s crimes, including those committed in the long-suffering city of Alyoshki.
‼️ВСУ продолжают атаковать мирных жителей. По предварительной информации, в Брянской области пострадали 12 человек, в том числе 9 студентов Трубчевского политехнического техникума. Среди них – 7 несовершеннолетних.

🇷🇺 #СвоихНеБросаем

Сегодня, 30 сентября, в нашей стране отмечается День воссоединения республик Донбасса, Запорожской и Херсонской областей с Россией.

В этот день в 2022 году как итог длительной и тяжёлой борьбы жителей наших исторических территорий за право быть частью русского мира были подписаны судьбоносные договоры о принятии в состав Российской Федерации четырёх регионов.

Этому предшествовали, как вы помните, годы репрессий киевского режима против русскоязычного населения Новороссии, выступившего против разгула национализма и не желавшего мириться с «порядками», навязываемыми захватившей власть на Украине хунтой.

#ПреступленияКиевскогоРежима

В последнее время киевский режим раскручивает тему тяжёлой гуманитарной ситуации в Алёшках (Херсонская область). Давайте рассмотрим и этот их фейк. Потому что они пытаются сделать из этой истории новую Бучу – «Бучу 2.0» – и начать очередную медиакомпанию. <...>

Почему-то замалчивают главное – кто же истинный виновник гуманитарной катастрофы?

Давайте посмотрим на факты 👉 Алёшки находятся на расстоянии порядка 3 км от позиций ВСУ, т.е. в зоне поражения и регулярных обстрелов украинской артиллерии, РСЗО и БПЛА. Только с 14 по 20 сентября по Алёшкинскому муниципалитету, куда входят Алёшки, бандеровцы нанесли 717 ударов – 314 прилётов ствольной и минометной артиллерии и 403 атаки беспилотников.

С февраля ВСУ осуществляют непрерывную «дроновую осаду» города. В результате многочисленных атак на объекты энергетической инфраструктуры Алёшки отрезаны от централизованного энергоснабжения и водообеспечения.

Очевидно, что Украина собственноручно создаёт гуманитарную катастрофу, пытаясь возложить вину, как она любит это делать, на Россию. Жизни людей, которых режим Зеленского лицемерно называет своими, для него ничего не значат. Он к своим, которых он так называет, относится хуже, чем к чужим.

#БезСрокаДавности

29 сентября исполнилось 85 лет со дня начала массовых расстрелов гитлеровцами еврейского населения на окраине оккупированного Киева в урочище Бабий Яр.

Напомню, что 29-30 сентября 1941 года гитлеровцы и их пособники согнали киевских евреев к Бабьему Яру. Многие до последней минуты не подозревали, что их ждёт. А ждала их смерть. Другие, осознавая происходящее, обнимались, прощались и молились.

За эти два страшных дня было расстреляно 33 771 человек — преимущественно женщины, дети и старики.

Развенчивать аморальную мифологию «коллективного Запада», от начала до конца выстроенную на откровенном вранье, можно по-разному, но один из способов — скрупулёзно, шаг за шагом выявлять передёргивания, подтасовки, манипуляции и подлоги. Это одна из частей работы Международного общественного трибунала по преступлениям украинских неонацистов и их пособников под председательством члена Общественной палаты Российской Федерации Максима Григорьева.

📄 Подготовленный им доклад «Наследники Геббельса: фальсификация событий в Буче и кровавые инсценировки киевского режима» был направлен в разные страны и будет направлен по дипломатическим каналам.

Конечно, мы взяли этот доклад с собой в Нью-Йорк. Он был в комнате переговоров в ходе каждой из почти 50 встреч Министра иностранных дел С.В.Лаврова, его распространили среди ооновских журналистов в ходе итоговой пресс-конференции нашего Министра. Естественно, вручили его и Генеральному секретарю ООН Антониу Гутеррешу.

Повторю ещё раз. Этот доклад — только начало системной работы.

💬 1 октября исполняется 80 лет со дня завершения работы Международного военного трибунала в Нюрнберге.

Процесс явился одним из наиболее важных политико-правовых итогов разгрома нацистской Германии. Впервые в правовой практике подготовка, планирование, развязывание и ведение агрессивной войны были квалифицированы как преступления против человечества, признана персональная ответственность высших должностных лиц государства за их совершение.

Хотя в тексте Устава и приговора Нюрнбергского трибунала не употребляется термин «геноцид» (в международной юридической практике он укоренился позднее), судебные материалы недвусмысленно указывают на многочисленные акты целенаправленного уничтожения советского народа, включая многолетнюю блокаду Ленинграда.

Принципиально важно, что историческая задача процесса — который ни в коей мере не являлся местью немецкому народу — заключалась в осуществлении правосудия в отношении главных инициаторов и виновников фашистских злодеяний. Трибунал повлёк отмену сроков давности привлечения к уголовной ответственности военных преступников и их пособников, стал символом восстановления справедливости и неотвратимости расплаты за содеянное.

Принципы, закрепленные в Уставе Трибунала и нашедшие отражение в его приговоре, и сегодня сохраняют свою юридическую силу. Они были подтверждены резолюциями Генеральной Ассамблеи ООН от 11 декабря 1946 года и 27 ноября 1947 года в качестве общепризнанных норм международного права.

Казалось бы, незыблемость принятых в Нюрнберге решений очевидна и неоспорима. К сожалению, мы вынуждены констатировать, что 80 лет спустя многие забыли уроки «Суда народов».

Речь идёт не только о киевской верхушке, которая с 2014 года ставит вне закона и истребляет всё русское на исторических территориях России, реабилитирует, героизирует и вдохновляется примером пособников Гитлера.


В той же мере это относится и к тем, кто оправдывает, покрывает и поддерживает террористические действия нынешнего неофашистского режима на Украине.

Необходим решительный отпор такого рода попыткам. Недопустимо переписывать историю Второй мировой войны, пересматривать её итоги. Нельзя оправдывать нацистов, их пособников и совершённые ими злодеяния. Историческое значение Нюрнбергского процесса непреходяще, а его решения не подлежат пересмотру.

🎙 Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s answer to a media question regarding the possibility of a nuclear strike on NATO countries in case of an attempt to blockade Kaliningrad (September 30, 2026)

❓ Question: Is the statement issued by the Russian Embassy in Ireland, which mentioned the possibility of a nuclear strike on NATO countries if they attempt to blockage Kaliningrad, the official position of the Foreign Ministry of Russia? What exactly has provoked this statement in September 2026?

💬 Maria Zakharova: The Russophobic hysteria in Western revanchist circles has reached fever pitch.

A handful of hotheads are steadily pushing Europe towards a potential conflict and preparing it for further escalation. Ordinary Europeans are being frightened with apocalyptic scenarios and “hybrid threats” allegedly emanating from Russia.

They have embarked on a course of full-scale militarisation, expanding their armed forces and driving defence spending in NATO countries bordering Russia to unprecedented levels. The bloc is expanding its military infrastructure, rapidly building military enterprises and integrating civil innovations and dual technologies into their defences. Europe has quickly launched drone production facilities.

Alliance members hold aggressive military exercises in direct proximity of our borders, training to implement offensive scenarios against our country, including the potential blockade of the Kaliningrad Region and Russian ports on the Baltic Sea, as well as the dispatch of allied troops via the Suwalki corridor.

They have developed close interaction with Ukraine to  learn from its experience in active warfare against the Armed Forces of Russia. Several European leaders have taken the liberty of speaking publicly about their capabilities “to raze Russian air defences and missile bases [in the Kaliningrad Region] to the ground”.  

Some EU countries that border on Russia are flaunting their readiness to allow the deployment of nuclear weapons in their territory, and are making appropriate changes to national legislations.

On the one hand, this irresponsible policy allows some people to accelerate their political careers and gain access to the EU’s budgets. On the other hand, it appears that the blundering European strategists have come to the conclusion that the only way to erase the consequences of their epic failures is 👉 through war.

Poland's FM Radoslaw Sikorski is dreaming of inflicting a military defeat on Russia. The Defence Minister of Estonia is publicly talking about the advantages of a “preemptive” war against our country. These and other politicians believe that such a war would be waged only with the means where NATO holds an advantage. These functionaries should be brought back to reality. We hope that our warnings will be heard by those they are meant for.

❗️ As President Vladimir Putin has said, our country does not threaten and doesn’t intend to threaten European countries.

However, there should be no doubt whatsoever that Russia has the necessary capabilities for preventing any aggression and inflicting defeat on any aggressor. If Europe attacks Russia, it will be a completely different sort of war – a very short one.

⚡️ Statement by the Foreign Ministers of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation on the 80th anniversary of the Verdict of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal (October 1, 2026)

October 1, 2026, marks 80 years since the delivery by the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg of its Verdict.

We view the way the Nuremberg Trials were prepared and held as a unique experience and example of professional and effective cooperation within the international community. Countries with different systems of government, culture, traditions and historical destinies came together to put on trial and convict those who unleashed the most horrendous war in the history of humankind.

☝️ We call on the international community to respect and defend the principles set forth by the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg to prevent wars, genocide, war crimes, torture and other crimes against humanity, and view the Verdict as an unbreakable and non-negotiable foundation of international law and world order. The Verdict has offered a legal framing for definitively defeating Nazism.

The Nuremberg Trials designated Nazi organisations, primarily the senior executives of the Nazi party – the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, as well as Gestapo and SS as criminal structures, and recognised their proactive involvement in developments that paved the way for a war of aggression and countless crimes against civilians.

The Trials laid the foundation for devising the post-war international legal tools for preventing wars, acts of genocide, torture and other crimes against humanity.

The Verdict of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal established that the Nazi war crimes were perpetrated at an unprecedented scale and were accompanied by unthinkable cruelty and terror.

▪️ Citizens of the Soviet Union suffered the most from civilian killings and atrocities. Based on solid evidence, the tribunal concluded that these crimes were perpetrated not only in an effort by occupation authorities to suppress resistance, but were also part of plan to expel and exterminate civilians for colonising the ceased territory.

In this connection, we emphasise that facts pertaining to expelling and exterminating civilians in the USSR by Nazis and their accomplices as established by the Verdict of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal must be viewed as an act of genocide against the Soviet Union.

***

We refuse to accept and firmly condemn any attempts to falsify history, including efforts to distort and revise the outcomes of the Second World War, and, in particular, facts pertaining to the Nazi crimes as set out by the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal.

It is with great resolve that we reject any attempts to distort the historical truth and believe that the policy of denying these crimes, including genocide, welcoming or justifying criminal acts not only offends the memory of those who died in these atrocities or survived them, but also creates an illusion of impunity and fertile ground for these inhumane acts to be reproduced.

❗️ We call on the international community to respect and defend the legacy of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal, as well as step up our efforts to share objective information about Nazi crimes for preventing the spread of neo-Nazi ideology, movements and organizations that could pose a threat to the peaceful coexistence of nations.
