Today a briefing was held by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
Traditionally, The Moscow Post correspondent asked his questions.
Our first question concerned the statement of Vladimir Zelensky that the DPRK authorities allegedly began to send their military to participate in the SVO on the side of Russia.
Maria Vladimirovna noted that the composition of the participants in the special military operation can be clarified in the Ministry of Defense, since this is their prerogative.
As for the statements of Volodymyr Zelenskyy or other representatives of the Kyiv regime, she did not comment, since something new pops up every day.
Zakharova stressed that the Kyiv authorities should comment on what they should comment on.
For example, for so many years they have not been able to provide lists of the so-called victims, as they formulate it, of the Russian Armed Forces in Bucha.
"It would be better to comment on this, it is in their area of responsibility. Neither we, nor the UN Secretary General and nor journalists, lists of people who were presented by the Kyiv regime as victims of Russian aggression in Bucha were not presented. Nobody knows which one. Not that in quantity - what kind of people are we talking about? Who are they? They also have names, dates of birth, citizenship. They should have it all. Where is it all? " Maria Zakharova added.
There was nothing just there from what the Kyiv regime says, she stressed.
She also continued: "Everyone there, apparently, was killed, laid out and extradited, as the Nazis did during World War II."
This is what Zelensky needs to comment on, he gave answers to these questions. "And regarding who and how participates in a special military operation, it seems to me that this should not concern him," she stressed.
Our second question concerned the statements of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry regarding the activities of the artist Leto. Namely, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry called Jared Leto's promise to speak in Russia "when the problems are over" an insult. At the same time, Leto added that he would also like to come to Kyiv.
"There can be no appeasement for Russia when it continues its attempts to solve the" problem "of the very existence of Ukraine," the Ukrainian diplomatic service said. Maybe it comes to Ukrainian diplomats that the Zelensky regime has put their country on the brink of political survival?
It's ridiculous to hear everything from those who proclaimed Nazi collaborators Bandera and Shukhevych as their heroes, national heroes.
In addition, it is ridiculous to hear from those who violate all international legal obligations, who cancel the Russian language, follow religious views, destroy monuments to their own heroes.
It is ridiculous to hear from those who destroy monuments even to the founders of their own cities, the Foreign Ministry spokesman continued.
"Without these people, without those to whom these monuments were erected, there would be no cities, and now monuments are being demolished to them," she stressed.
Therefore, it seems to me that the figure you mentioned, in general, was lucky in good company. Somewhere it seems to me - between Pushkin and Catherine II, concluded Maria Vladimirovna.
