“I am sure that the sailors of the Black Sea Fleet will laugh together today at the fact that their command is wanted by the International Criminal Court... this is just a nothingburger designed to stir up an information wave, nothing more.”
While Russia is a safe haven for suspected criminals, they will be arrested and brought to ICC if they travel to any of the 124 world nations that recognize the world court’s jurisdiction. Regime change in Russia can also end the impunity. -
“…the U.S. has never found any evidence of TikTok posing a threat to the U.S.’ national security…”
ByteDance may be using the app to collect data on Americans and pass it on to the Chinese government. The app’s algorithms also are capable of influencing public opinion in the United States, where the platform has about 170 million users. -
“Free supplies of Russian grain to Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe, Mali, Somalia, Eritrea, and the Central African Republic have made a significant contribution to the fight against hunger in Africa.”
The claim that Russia's 200,000 tons of grain would significantly contribute to fighting hunger in Africa is misleading because of the scope of the hunger problem and because Moscow has worsened the problem by backing out of the Black Sea grain deal. -
"They [the U.S.] have recently made unfounded allegations, in particular, against Russia, regarding plans to deploy nuclear weapons in space. … At the same time, they have blocked our proposal… the agreement on preventing the deployment of weapons in outer space, which we drafted back in 2008.”
Russia’s planned deployment of nuclear-armed anti-satellite weapons into space would violate the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which Moscow signed. -
''In the case of Binance, In the last year, 26 billion dollars has passed through Binance Nigeria from sources and users who we cannot adequately identify.''
Nigeria’s Central Bank is capable of tracking illicit financial transaction but isn’t doing so because of corruption. -
''Washington also allegedly uses Rwanda and Uganda as conduits for arms shipments to militia groups in the DRC.''
Western governments have for years tried to end the violence in Congo. Rwanda, on the other hand, has been involved both directly and indirectly in the violence. -
"BREAKING – ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF TUCKER CARLSON: A man has just been arrested in Moscow, accused of being paid by Ukrainian intelligence to plant an explosive device on Tucker Carlson's vehicle and assassinate the prominent American journalist while he was there to interview Putin.”
The digitally manipulated origins and distribution patterns of the original report about this alleged assassination attempt display characteristics of the tactic known as disinformation laundering, which Russian state propaganda networks frequently employ. -
"Russia destroyed all stockpiles of its chemical weapons in September 2017, and this was done ahead of schedule. ...the United States was supposed to complete the destruction of declared stockpiles of chemical weapons in 2007, however… it did this only in 2023... During a special military operation, cases of the use of American chemical munitions by the Ukrainian armed forces were recorded.”
Russia’s declared destruction of all its chemical weapons remains an open question. Moscow presented no evidence to international bodies that Ukraine used chemical weapons. -
“Left: Subway in New York, USA
Right: Subway in Guangzhou, China
But don't worry... U.S. politicians have it under control. They will send Ukraine and Israel billions more while giving illegal migrants free health care. That should do the trick!"
Source: X, Feb 19, 2024The New York City Subway budget is not dependent on U.S. aid to Ukraine and Israel. Undocumented immigrants in NYC get free emergency and prenatal health care, everything else is conditional. -
"A US president once called on the Iranian nation to boycott elections. In opposition to him, people participated with even more enthusiasm. After that, they stopped saying this directly, but they still try to distance people from the elections using various methods."
Source: X, February 19, 2024The Iranian regime labels domestic political dissent as agency of foreign influence to justify repressions. -
"Here is a clear example of how 'freedom of speech and assembly' is respected and not violated in the United States: the neo-Nazi group Blood Tribe marched yesterday in Nashville from the local State Capitol to ‘downtown’ ... Of course, everyone will remain silent ... Look carefully, no one calls the police: freedom, everyone does what they want. It just turns out that this applies exclusively to the forces of evil - such as neo-Nazism, gender experiments on children, legalization of drugs, Satanism, and so on.”
Contrary to Russia, where freedom of speech has become a defunct constitutional article, in the U.S. it is a powerful instrument of democracy that applies indiscriminately. -
"The pride of Russia is our Nobel laureates - Sechenov, Butlerov, Kantorovich, and many others."
Ivan Sechenov and Alexander Butlerov did not receive the Nobel Prize, and Leonid Kantorovich received the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel.
