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

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.

#NoStatuteOfLimitations
On October 1, 1946 — 8️⃣0️⃣ years ago — the International Military Tribunal (IMT) in #Nuremberg concluded its proceedings against the senior officials of the Third Reich responsible for unleashing the bloodiest and most horrific conflict in human history, committing genocide and murdering millions of innocent people.
❗️ #NurembergTrials were an unprecedented international tribunal in history, which truly became a "Trial of Nations" against absolute evil — Hitler's Nazism.
The IMT's verdict in Nuremberg made a crucial contribution to the legal consolidation of the outcome of #WW2 and declared the Nazi misanthropic ideology, principal organisational structures and practices of Nazism as a whole to be entirely criminal.
The high-ranking leaders of Hitler's regime, including Göring, Hess, Ribbentrop, Kaltenbrunner, Rosenberg, Keitel, Neurath, Jodl, Dönitz and other senior officials of the Third Reich — were placed on dock. Bormann, who had evaded prosecution, was tried in absentia.
💬 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, in an interview for the documentary 'Nuremberg' (Moscow, 16 November 2025):
Our country's key role in arranging the Nuremberg proceedings is absolutely indisputable.
The Nuremberg Trials involved an enormous amount of paper work. A total of 403 public hearings were held. 116 witnesses were examined, and more than 300'000 testimonies were considered. Approximately 3,000 documents were examined.
❗️The Trials' proceedings elucidated, for the first time, the unprecedented scale of Nazi Germany's war crimes, including the brutal treatment of POWs and the deliberate destruction of entire cities, villages and their inhabitants.
💬 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:
(From the briefing by Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, 1 October 2026)
⚖️ On 1 October 1946, a historic verdict was delivered — 19 defendants were found guilty. Göring, Ribbentrop, Keitel, Kaltenbrunner, Rosenberg, Jodl, Bormann (in absentia) and other representatives of the Nazi leadership were sentenced to death by hanging. A number of institutions of Hitler's Germany, including the SS, SD, Gestapo and the Nazi Party leadership corps, were declared criminal organisations.
✍️ From article by Valery Zorkin, Chairman of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, "The Sacred Beacon of Nuremberg and the Shadow of The Hague" (October 1, 2026):

The question of ensuring that Nazi criminals would inevitably be brought to justice was first officially raised in a Soviet diplomatic note in November 1941.
The Soviet Union <...> was the principal initiator and driving force behind the establishment of the Nuremberg Tribunal.
Our proposals were heard and accepted.
Our country's key role in arranging the Nuremberg proceedings is absolutely indisputable.
The Nuremberg Trials involved an enormous amount of paper work. A total of 403 public hearings were held. 116 witnesses were examined, and more than 300'000 testimonies were considered. Approximately 3,000 documents were examined.
❗️The Trials' proceedings elucidated, for the first time, the unprecedented scale of Nazi Germany's war crimes, including the brutal treatment of POWs and the deliberate destruction of entire cities, villages and their inhabitants.
💬 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:
Although the term 'genocide' does not appear in the text of the Nuremberg Tribunal's Charter or verdict (it became established in international legal practice at a later date), the trial records unequivocally point to numerous acts aimed at the deliberate extermination of the Soviet people, including the years-long siege of Leningrad.
<...>
Unfortunately, we are compelled to acknowledge that, 80 years on, many have forgotten the lessons of the 'Trials of Nations'. This applies not only to the Kiev regime's leadership, which, since 2014, has outlawed and sought to eradicate everything Russian in Russia's historical territories, rehabilitating, glorifying and drawing inspiration from the example of Hitler's collaborators.
The same applies to those who justify, shield and support the terrorist actions of the current neo-fascist regime in Ukraine.
(From the briefing by Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, 1 October 2026)
⚖️ On 1 October 1946, a historic verdict was delivered — 19 defendants were found guilty. Göring, Ribbentrop, Keitel, Kaltenbrunner, Rosenberg, Jodl, Bormann (in absentia) and other representatives of the Nazi leadership were sentenced to death by hanging. A number of institutions of Hitler's Germany, including the SS, SD, Gestapo and the Nazi Party leadership corps, were declared criminal organisations.
✍️ From article by Valery Zorkin, Chairman of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, "The Sacred Beacon of Nuremberg and the Shadow of The Hague" (October 1, 2026):
Nuremberg was an act of retribution against Evil and a defining moment in establishing the legal foundations of the post-war world.
The Tribunal became a hammer brought down upon a criminal state and its legal order.

🎙 Remarks by President of Russia Vladimir Putin at the plenary session of the 23rd annual meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club (Moscow, October 1, 2026)
This year’s theme is “Responsibility for the Future: Limits of the Possible, or Limitless Possibilities?”
Key talking points:
• Responsibility for our shared future is far more than just an abstract slogan. It entails a set of practical measures aimed at preventing humanity from being pushed to the brink of survival and averting irreparable consequences.
• Humanity has not yet fully comprehended the true magnitude of the challenge it faces. We are entering a completely new and unprecedented reality. Threats and dangers are inextricably intertwined with opportunities and prospects; they cannot be separated from one another. Our entire way of living is changing.
• Whatever scenario unfolds in the world in the years ahead, the international conflicts, unfortunately, are likely to continue. This is due in part to the fact that the profound shifts now under way, and the opportunities they create, fuel and encourage ambitions and a willingness to take risks for what may appear to be a major payoff.
• In the long term, as the world moves away from Western hegemony, the international situation will gradually improve leading to a more stable, democratic, and free multipolar international order. It is equally clear, however, that on the path towards such a world order, states, communities and every individual will face various risks.
• The UN, even if it is the most representative international organisation, falls short of the collective and democratic principles in the way it is being managed compared to its original design. A narrow grouping of Western countries wields an unproportionally large influence. It constitutes a global minority by all accounts while seeking to appropriate administrative functions.
• The principle of "might makes right" sometimes seems to guide certain international players who are convinced of their own military-political, economic, and, as they believe, moral exceptionalism. We know well from history that this never leads to anything good.
• The truth is that it was not we who wanted or started the war — it was started against us. There was no need to encourage aggressive nationalism and Russophobia in Ukraine for years in order to turn it into a tool for fighting Russia.
• Russia was deliberately placed in a situation where it was simply forced — in response to this obvious aggression — to defend itself with arms in hand. We were deliberately brought to this line. And in general, there is no need to turn Russophobia, the oppression and killing of Russian people, and the destruction of Russia into a state ideology and to set the goal of Russia's strategic defeat.
• If we want to live — everyone wants to live — then, as I once said in a public speech, let us live in friendship and together seek ways to make that happen.
