🇷🇺 Поздравление Посла России в Австралии М.И.Петракова с Днем народного единства (4 ноября 2026 г.) Уважаемые соотечественники, 🎉 Поздравляю вас с Днем народного единства! В этот день мы отдаем дань уважения тем, кто в 1612 г. отстоял независимость Родины и положил конец Смутному времени. В основе этой победы было единение всех патриотических сил. 💪 На протяжении своей истории, в ее переломные моменты, Россия черпала силы в единстве народа, взаимной поддержке и верности национальным ценностям. Но чтобы эти источники не иссякали, важно сохранять историческую память как основу национальной идентичности. На подвигах и достижениях наших предков мы воспитываем новые поколения. Историческая память – важный сегмент национальной безопасности страны. И сегодня это особенно значимо, ведь Россия сталкивается с серьезными вызовами – экономическими и военными, обусловленными стремлением ряда государств сдержать ее развитие, ослабить международные позиции, подорвать традиционные духовно-нравственные основы. Мы преодолеем все испытания, победим на всех полях благодаря сплоченности общества, твердости духа и преданности Отечеству. Особое значение этот праздник приобретает в 2026 г., который объявлен Президентом России В.В.Путиным Годом единства народов России. На протяжении веков наша страна формировалась как уникальное многонациональное государство, ставшее общим домом для представителей более 200 народов. Их объединяет совместная история, любовь к Отчизне и стремление к ее процветанию. Руководство страны уделяет приоритетное внимание сбережению этнокультурного и языкового многообразия России. 🌏 Дорогие соотечественники, вы играете очень важную роль в сохранении нашего историко-культурного наследия, русского языка и традиций, в укреплении связей между людьми и развитии взаимопонимания между народами. 🤝 В этот праздничный день желаю вам и вашим близким крепкого здоровья, счастья, благополучия и душевного тепла. Пусть единство, взаимная поддержка и верность нашим общим ценностям всегда остаются источником силы и вдохновения! #ДеньНародногоЕдинства #ДеньНародногоЕдинства2026

🇷🇺 Today #Russia and all its many peoples celebrate national #UnityDay! This day symbolizes the unity of our multiethnic nation, celebrates true diversity, honours the unerring ultimate devotion to the Motherland. ❗️ Happy #UnityDay! #UnityDay2026

☢️ Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant (#ZNPP): ⚡️ On November 3, a Ukrainian drone attacked a moving civilian car, killing two people. One of those killed was an employee of the Zaporozhskaya NPP. She became the third plant employee killed in the past two weeks and the thirteenth since April this year. Behind every such loss are family members, loved ones and colleagues. Our entire team shares this pain. ❗️ Attacks on civilian cars and the killing of civilians are deliberate acts of terrorism. Civilians must not be targeted. #KievRegimeCrimes

⚡️ Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova's statement on the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists (November 2, 2026) 💬 November 2 marks the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists, established in 2013 by a #UN General Assembly resolution. This observance aims to draw global attention to the need to protect journalists as they carry out their professional duties and to reinforce the principle that atrocities committed against them must inevitably be punished. ❗️ We have to acknowledge that the actual situation regarding journalists’ safety has not improved and continues to steadily deteriorate. Over these years, the media landscape has turned into a full-fledged theatre of war, where the countries of the “collective West”, clinging to their former hegemony, use every means available to suppress dissent and impose on the #GlobalMajority the “only correct” view of world events. Repressive actions by the West and its protégés in Ukraine, Moldova and the Baltic states against Russian media outlets and their staff have still not received an adequate response from the relevant international organisations – the UN Human Rights Office, UNESCO, the OSCE and others. Emboldened by unchecked impunity, the Kiev regime is openly conducting a relentless hunt for members of the Russian media community. War correspondents on the front line know better than anyone that the blue “PRESS” patch on a bulletproof vest, which once offered protection against targeted fire, has become a convenient target for Ukrainian Banderites – visible from afar and used to direct deliberate attacks. Such attacks constitute war crimes under international humanitarian law, yet the relevant international bodies fail to direct criticism at those responsible. 🕯 In the 13 years since the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists was established, dozens of talented professionals have been killed by Ukrainian militants, including: ▪️ Igor Kornelyuk ▪️ Anton Voloshin ▪️ Andrey Stenin ▪️ Anatoly Klyan ▪️ Daria Dugina ▪️ Oleg Klokov ▪️ Maxim Fomin (Vladlen Tatarsky) ▪️ Rostislav Zhuravlev ▪️ Boris Maksudov ▪️ Semyon Yeryomin ▪️ Valery Kozhin ▪️ Nikita Tsisagi ▪️ Yulia Kuznetsova ▪️ Alexander Martemyanov ▪️ Alexander Fedorchak ▪️ Andrey Panov ▪️ Anna Prokofyeva ▪️ Nikita Goldin ▪️ Ivan Zuev *** 👉 Another regrettable consequence of the toxic politicisation of journalists’ protection is that many of the Russian correspondents named above were once again omitted from the newly published UNESCO Director-General’s Report on the Safety of Journalists for 2024-2025. Although, at our insistence, a link to official Russian data on all such crimes was finally included in an annex to the report, the document itself continues to take a selective approach to statistics. We consider it necessary to recall that the 1997 General Conference resolution and the 2023 Executive Board decision require UNESCO’s leadership to condemn the killing of journalists and acts of physical violence against them without distinction. #NoStatuteOfLimitations There is NO statute of limitations for crimes against Russian journalists. ☝️ Russia will not back down from its legitimate demands within UNESCO and other relevant frameworks. The Russian MFA will continue to consistently defend the professional rights of Russian journalists abroad, work to create safe conditions for their activities and seek just punishment for those responsible for crimes against them.

#KievRegimeCrimes ⚡️ Maxim Grigoryev, the Сhairman of the International Public Tribunal on the Crimes of Ukrainian neo-Nazis, which includes representatives of civil society from more than 30 countries, continues to gather evidence and testimonies, exposing crimes committed in Starobelsk. The film series bring together eyewitness accounts from students, teachers, medical staff and rescue workers documenting the Kiev regime’s terrorist attack on the Starobelsk college of Lugansk State Pedagogical University. 👉 Watch PART I ◾️ PART II | May 22, 2026, began as an ordinary day in Starobelsk. Students went to class, met up with friends and made plans for the future. After the first strikes that evening, there was a lull, and many thought the danger had passed. But a few hours later, the attacks began again. 💬 Maxim Bogach, college student: We all went down to the first floor and stayed there until midnight. Things had quieted down, so we went back up to the fifth floor. <..> When the first drone hit a car, I was standing by the window watching. I could hear it buzzing, and it sounded like it was coming straight at me. I ran into the hallway, and the building came down on top of me. <...> I was lying there, knowing I had to get out. I started digging myself out with my hands until I saw a gap and managed to crawl out from under the rubble. Then I saw two girls lying there. They showed no signs of life. 💬 Yulia Pristinskaya, Russian language teacher at the Starobelsk branch of Lugansk State Pedagogical University: At around one in the morning, I heard a huge explosion. I got up and looked outside. There were flames and sparks where the children were staying. That’s when I realized we were being attacked. 💬 Maria Mysnik, college student: We heard an explosion, and then I saw a flash. The blast knocked us back, bricks started raining down from above, and everything was filled with dust. Everyone was screaming. I had no idea what was going on. The film documents the human cost of the attack, with testimonies from those who witnessed the horror firsthand. ❗️ We demand a full international investigation.

🎙 Remarks and answers to media questions by Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov following the G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (Atlanta, October 30, 2026) ❓ Question: Have your contacts with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio taken place, or are they planned? Since we are in the United States, does the resumption of direct air links with the country remain on the agenda? Are there prospects for resolving the issue regarding our diplomatic property? 💬 Sergey Lavrov: We had a productive conversation, albeit a short one – for understandable reasons – because, as our host, he has many duties that do not allow him to spend much time on contacts outside the G20 framework. Nevertheless, the engagement did take place. We discussed both certain aspects of our bilateral relations and interaction at multilateral venues, including the #UN, the #G20 and #APEC, whose summit will be held very soon, in November, in the Chinese city of Shenzhen. I have said on numerous occasions that the Americans observe the rules of classical diplomacy, regardless of the tensions in our relations. There have always been – and there always will be – problems between Russia and the United States. Moreover, as US Secretary of State Marco Rubio himself acknowledged at our first meeting in February 2025 in Riyadh, in the overwhelming majority of cases our national interests – America’s and Russia’s – will not coincide. However, when those interests do align, it would be foolish and wrong not to translate that alignment into the execution of joint, mutually beneficial projects. Conversely, when the interests of Russia and the United States do not coincide, it would be a crime to allow that divergence to escalate into an open clash, or indeed into any confrontation at all. Therefore – despite all our differences – the readiness and interest of the Americans in dialogue at the most varied levels, including between the presidents, the foreign ministers and a whole host of other channels, can, of course, only be welcomed. This serves as a good lesson for our European colleagues, who continue to adopt a position of what one might call an arrogant boycott. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, who asked for a meeting with me in New York a month ago, issued a statement yesterday or this morning to the effect that he would tell Sergey Lavrov everything about the “aggressive war” and would never be photographed with him. I call this “family photo diplomacy”. If the main concern for them is how they look in the group portrait and who is standing next to them, then that says it all.

🎙 Remarks and answers to media questions by Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov following the G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (Atlanta, October 30, 2026) 💬 Sergey Lavrov: We support the US Presidency’s firm commitment to depoliticising discussions and focusing on the issues originally agreed upon as the #G20’s agenda. This year’s meeting is, of course, part of the preparations for the Miami Summit, which will take place in December. The main topics were the impact of geopolitics on economic processes (an important issue), energy, food and supply chains – in other words, everything affected by unlawful sanctions and Western policies. To our American hosts’ credit, they do not shy away from discussing these matters and listen attentively. I do not know to what extent this will be reflected in the final agreed documents, but the approach is right: ☝️ depoliticise discussions and focus on real problems. Another point that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio particularly emphasised when discussing preparations for the Miami Summit was that twenty countries, the European Union and the African Union are represented here. Given the influence of #G20 members on the global economy and their combined economic weight, however, the decisions we take will affect virtually every country. We must always bear this in mind. 🤝 Let me reiterate that we welcome this firm commitment to dialogue. Work on the Miami Summit’s outcome documents has, in fact, already begun. There will be many difficult issues, since interests are at stake across all these areas, including energy and food security. The impact of conflicts, including the war unleashed against us by the West through the Ukrainian regime, remains to be discussed. <...> *** Other key points: • Under the pragmatic US Presidency of the #G20, we believe there is a chance of reaching agreements that will be implemented. • We see no need to add another European voice [Poland] to the G20, especially one that is far from constructive. You know the positions Poland regularly voices at international events. The G20 must reflect actual trends in the global economy, where countries of the Global South and East are gaining prominence. • We spoke [with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio] about certain aspects of our bilateral relations and cooperation in multilateral forums, including the #UN, the #G20 and #APEC, that will host a Summit shortly in Shenzhen (China). • Despite all our differences, the US willingness and interest in pursuing dialogue at various levels and through a range of other channels can only be welcomed. This is a good lesson for our European colleagues, who persist in their arrogant boycott. • Everyone can see that the Europeans want to squeeze their way into the negotiating process [on Ukraine]. Clearly, they want to avoid leaving these negotiations solely to Russia and the US at all costs. What matters is not what the Europeans want, but what added value they can actually bring. • As for the talks in Abu Dhabi, I can say that they will take place. Our position is well known. It is unclear, however, what the Ukrainians intend to bring to the negotiating table. 👉 As President Vladimir Putin has said, if Zelensky wants a meeting, he can come to Moscow. We guarantee his safety and security, which, as far as I understand, cannot be guaranteed in Kiev. Read in full

⚡️ Russia's High Commissioner for Human Rights Yana Lantratova: ❗️ Our humanitarian mission in #Alyoshki has concluded. The convoys are now heading to their respective destinations. Those who decided to leave for Ukraine have been given the opportunity to do so. We will provide accommodation and the necessary support to residents staying in Russia. We delivered all the essential supplies and arranged safe passage out of the city. However, people still have much to resolve – medical treatment, housing, documents and reunification with their loved ones. We will help them. We also remain in contact with those who stayed in Alyoshki to keep track of their further needs. *** ❗️ I propose making humanitarian missions coordinated by US First Lady Melania Trump a regular practice. Our experience in Alyoshki and our joint work with my counterpart Dmitry Lubinets have shown that such agreements make it possible to help people even in the most difficult conditions. It is important to continue this work wherever civilians are waiting for support. I thank President of Russia Vladimir Putin, our Defence Ministry, the relevant services and our military personnel for helping carry out the mission and ensuring people’s safety. 🙏 Special thanks go to Melania Trump for her assistance and coordination.
