(RAD: Unfortunately, General Apti Aluadinov was not part of this interview. At the end, they mentioned that he would be next, yet I didn't see any way to watch that interview. On the other hand, the interview with Maria Zakharova was interesting & informative. The simultaneous translation from Russian to English was difficult to follow at times because they didn't turn the volume down enough on the Russian version. Maria has the equivalent of a PhD & definitely has an impressive understanding of geopolitical issues. — RAD)

Key points via Russian MFA
👉 ON US VISA RESTRICTIONS
US citizens receive Russian visas "just like that", while Russian nationals must leave the country, wait months for an interview, and still have no guarantee that a US visa will be issued.

We never retaliate against ordinary people. Many have families abroad, elderly relatives, or health-related needs. People must not suffer because of the actions of their governments.

That is why Russia will continue to treat visa matters responsibly and humanely. Everything will be fine on our side.

👉 ON PERSECUTION OF CANONICAL ORTHODOXY IN UKRAINE
Orthodox Christianity is the largest and canonical religion in Ukraine – a traditional form of Christianity that has never advocated violence or acted as a religious sect.

What is most striking is this: the Zelensky regime claims to be “decommunizing” Ukraine, supposedly rejecting all communist legacy. Yet its actions against the Orthodox Church go far beyond anything the communists ever did.

The Kiev regime seizes churches, kills, imprisons and politically persecutes priests, drives congregations out into the streets and forces them to swear allegiance to a newly created, artificial schismatic church.

Western audiences need to hear the voices of those who have spent months on the defendants’ bench, the priests now behind bars, the relatives of the clergy who were killed, and the congregations that were, quite literally, destroyed.

👉 ON CULTIVATION OF HATRED IN BRITISH SOCIETY
The British signature “licence to kill”, glorified in the James Bond franchise, is essentially an indulgence to eliminate those whom the state designates as enemies. And we know from Britain's colonial past, the Crown and state agencies often designated ordinary people in Africa and other world regions as its enemies.

This institutionalised hatred directed at our country is not a response to Russia’s actions – it is part of a long-standing, state-level ideology. And I am speaking about the British elites, not ordinary people.

Most people in the UK know little about Russia – they are poorly informed and heavily influenced by tabloid culture. The yellow press sets their worldview. This Russophobia is not a British national trait – it is cultivated by the ruling class and passed down through generations.

👉 ON HISTORICAL FALCIFICATIONS
The situation around Ukraine is part of a wider crisis of fakes. Western youth know little about history nowadays – ask them about the Nuremberg Trials, which mark their 80th anniversary, and few will answer.

The events in Bucha were constructed using the same template as the Nazi provocation in Nemmersdorf in 1944. The same tropes: Soviet forces withdraw from the settlement, the Nazis enter, declare a “terrible massacre”, bring in foreign journalists, and even convene an "international tribunal".

Only decades later did representatives of modern Germany acknowledge that it had been a staged operation to smear the victorious Red Army.

The Bucha narrative was driven primarily by British media and served one goal – to sabotage the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Istanbul in spring 2022.

👉 ON CORRUPTION IN UKRAINE
The Kiev regime is at the centre of an international corruption scheme. Another bubble (aka "the Mindich case") has just burst, exposing the true nature of this system.

Western defence ministries have no proper mechanisms to track arms sent to Ukraine. There are no mixed monitoring or audit teams, no reconciliation of what was shipped and what was received.

What exists instead is a mafia-style operation that launders money through arms deliveries and the ongoing bloodshed.

One must keep in mind the fact that all Western weapons received by Zelensky for acts of terrorism against Russia are legitimate targets and will be eliminated.
