🇷🇺 Marking the 12th anniversary of Crimea’s reunification with Russia, young participants of the Children of the Crimean Spring project, implemented with the support of the Government of the Republic of Crimea and the State Council of the Republic of Crimea, have prepared a themed photo exhibition:
🤍💙❤️ Harmony of Cultures: Born during the Crimean Spring
The project was initiated by 12-year-old Crimean children born during the Crimean Spring, whose childhood has been closely connected with the revival of their homeland.
The exhibition also highlights the peninsula’s ethnic and cultural diversity. It was the unity of Crimea’s people of different ethnicities, brought together by a shared purpose, that helped Crimea return home #OnThisDay, 12 years ago.
✍️ Chairman of the State Council of the Republic of Crimea Vladimir Konstantinov:
🕊 This project is a heartfelt message from a generation born alongside a new era for Crimea – a new world.

✍️ Chairman of the State Council of the Republic of Crimea Vladimir Konstantinov:
During the all-crimean referendum on March 16, 2014, the crimeans chose the path of peace, unity and creation. We made this choice not only for ourselves, but also for our children and grandchildren.
Today, we are doing everything so that their childhood would be filled with happiness and lots of opportunities for development and self-realization, and at the same time we are fostering in them love for our Motherland, a sense of responsibility for its future.
🕊 This project is a heartfelt message from a generation born alongside a new era for Crimea – a new world.

Forwarded from 🇷🇺Arms Control Delegation in Vienna
🗓 On March 19, the Delegation of the Russian Federation to the Vienna Negotiations on Military Security and Arms Control, together with the Ambassador-at-Large of the MFA of Russia Mr. Rodion Miroshnik held an international teleconference War crimes of the AFU against the civilian population of the Belgorod region.
🌍 Representatives from over 70 countries participated in the event, joining the teleconference from across continents thanks to the active support of Russian embassies and Rossotrudnichestvo representative offices.
The keynote speakers included Ambassador-at-Large of the MFA of Russia on crimes committed by the Kiev regime Mr. Rodion Miroshnik, Deputy Governor of the Belgorod region Ms. Olga Medvedeva, journalist covering international affairs and public figure Mr. Scott Ritter, expert on UAVs used by the AFU against civilian targets, CEO of Ushkuynik Research and Production Center Mr. Alexey Chadayev, and journalist of SOLOVIOV Live and participant in the volunteer charity missions of the SVR (Soloviev Vladimir R.) Foundation in the Belgorod Region Mr. Sergey Karnaukhov. Witnesses to the war crimes committed by the AFU shared their accounts of the events in the Belgorod region.
❗Key takeaways from the discussion:
▪Over the past few years, and especially recently, we have observed a steady increase in the number of Ukrainian attacks on civilian infrastructure and civilians in the border regions of Russia. According to reports, significant part of these strikes fall on the territory of the Belgorod region. This applies not only to border settlements but also to Belgorod itself, the capital of the region, which has in fact become one of the most frequently shelled cities among regional capitals of our country.
▪The presentations included systematized data, expert assessments, and eyewitness accounts, allowing for a more complete understanding of the humanitarian consequences of the ongoing attacks on civilian infrastructure and civilians in the region.
▪The testimonies of people who have directly experienced the consequences of the shelling are particularly valuable. Their words are not dry statistics or figures. These are human destinies, destroyed homes, and lives under the constant threat of attacks.
▪Expert assessments were presented regarding the legal aspects of what is happening. This is about compliance with international humanitarian law, which explicitly requires minimizing damage to civilians and civilian infrastructure.
▪Special attention was given to issues of energy security in the region and the consequences of attacks on critical infrastructure. We heard expert assessments of the scale of the risks faced by residents of border areas, as well as of the measures being taken to protect infrastructure and ensure the stable operation of vital systems.
▪It is important that the discussion was not merely ascertaining. It made it possible to record factual material that should be the subject of further analysis and discussion at international forums.
📍It's unacceptable that international human rights activists react with lightning speed to any Ukrainian news and make unfounded accusations against our country without even a preliminary investigation into incidents. When it comes to the deaths of people in Russian cities, they remain silent.
Double standards must be abandoned!
▪Participants of the teleconference supported the call for the international community to condemn the criminal acts of the Kiev regime against the civilians of our country.
☝Such events are an opportunity to convey to a wider audience facts that often remain unnoticed by a significant part of the global information space.

🎙 Statement by Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN Vassily Nebenzia at a UNSC Briefing on the Work of the UNSC 1737 Committee (New York, March 18, 2026)
💬 Vassily Nebenzia: The US-Israeli confrontation with Iran is engulfing more and more states of the region, including Syria. The country recovered from the repercussions of the 14-year-long bloody civil war, but it was not long before it faced the risk of being entangled in another armed conflict. This scenario can undo all the hard-won achievements so far on national reconciliation and restoring state unity. Of particular concern are the tensions along the border between Syria and Lebanon, where, amidst Hezbollah-Israel intense clashes, the Syrian government has deployed additional units to patrol the border.
We call upon all parties to exercise utmost restraint, crack down on any provocations that have the potential to fan the flames of war. <...>
Attempts to interfere in the internal affairs of Syria on the pretext of protecting ethnic and religious minorities, primarily the Druze community, have still not been abandoned.
☝️ We urge West Jerusalem to shelve the plans to weaken Syrian statehood, as well as withdraw its troops from the Syrian territories and return to negotiating in good faith with Damascus. <...>
If the military tensions in the Middle East persist, they will inevitably lead to further aggravation of the humanitarian situation. Syrians, much like the people in the neighboring countries, will feel the effects of this, first and foremost, through rising grocery prices. It is of particular concern, as the food security situation in Syria has already been extremely difficult – more than 7 million people are acutely food insecure. <...>
We attach importance to a gradual transition from providing humanitarian assistance to the sustainable recovery and development of the country. It is especially relevant due to remaining problems in healthcare, water and energy supplies and in other vital areas. <...>
Amid multiple security and economic challenges, what remains relevant is comprehensive cooperation between Damascus and the UN, rooted in Syria’s national priorities and unconditional respect for its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
We express our support for the work done by the Office of the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Syria.
👉 We reassert the relevance of UNSC Resolution 2254 and the importance of an inclusive political process in accordance with the key principles, while paying proper regard to all ethnic and religious groups of the population.
We would like to wish the Syrian authorities and people further successes in restoring the country’s territorial integrity. We would also like to reaffirm Russia’s support for the efforts in this direction.

🎙 Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Israeli attack on RT television channel journalists (March 19, 2026)
💬 On March 19, a missile strike by the Israeli Air Force in southern Lebanon wounded RT television crew members who were on an editorial assignment. RT reporter Steve Sweeney and cameraman Ali Rida Sbeity were wounded when a munition exploded in close proximity to the filming location. They received the necessary medical help.
We wish them a speedy recovery.
The missile was used by the Israeli military against unarmed civilians, a category which, under international humanitarian law, includes members of the media. The crew’s clothing bore clearly visible “press” markings; they carried nothing but cameras and microphones, and the explosive item landed on a site where there were no military targets. These circumstances indicate that the attack on the journalists was deliberate and targeted, which is also confirmed by footage captured by the cameraman showing the detonation of the munition.
We regard such actions by the Israeli side and Israeli military as a gross violation of international law, a deliberate obstruction of the work of media professionals, and an attempt on their safety and lives. We look forward to seeing these actions receive an appropriate assessment from relevant multilateral bodies, primarily the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and UNESCO, as well as other human rights institutions that defend professional rights and legitimate interests of the global journalistic community.
☝️ We insist on carrying out a thorough investigation of this incident by the Israeli authorities, holding the culprits accountable and preventing such accidents from happening in the future.
The Russian side will convey its assessment of the incident to the Ambassador of Israel to the Russian Federation who will be summoned to the Foreign Ministry soon.
