RT media coverage on the meeting between the Russian Ambassador Alexander Yakovenko and the victim of the Amesbury poisoning Charlie Rowley.
On 6 April 2019 Ambassador Alexander Yakovenko met at his Residence with the victim of the Amesbury poisoning Charles Rowley and his brother Matthew upon their request. The focus of the discussion was on incidents in Salisbury in March 2018 and Amesbury in June 2018.
Vladimir Putin took part in the opening ceremony of the Memory Watch 2019 national event at the Victory Museum on Moscow’s Poklonnaya Gora.
The UK Government and media have been providing their assessments of the role of NATO in the European affairs. They regard the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation as “the most successful alliance in history”. But let us have a closer look at the facts.
After the Cold War (and 30 years have passed since) the Alliance was looking for its “raison d’etre”. NATO operations in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Libya have destabilised those countries for a long time, causing numerous civilian casualties and dealing a severe blow to the basic norms of the international law.
The North Atlantic Treaty, which led to the establishment of NATO, was signed on April 4 seventy years ago. On this occasion, the North Atlantic Council held a meeting of the member states’ foreign ministers in Washington on April 3−4.
The agenda of the meeting and the decisions taken at it by the North Atlantic Council show that the alliance is not going to stop building up its military and political confrontation with Russia. The bloc’s key goal – to rally its allies for containing “the threat from the East” – has not changed since its establishment in 1949.
Question: It is widely believed that creating the best environment for domestic development is one of the main goals of foreign policy. How well is Russian foreign policy coping with this task?
Sergey Lavrov: It is not just “widely believed.” It is a postulate incorporated in foreign policy documents, such as the Foreign Policy Concept and other fundamental strategic papers which form the basis of our work and our country’s foreign policy activities.
Against the backdrop of the habitual – even ritual – anti-Russia propaganda, some voices of reason have been heard lately among American experts. Of particular interest in this regard is the recent article by the Daily Beast titled "This Hotline Could Keep the U.S. and Russia from Cyberwar". No doubt, for the professionals who have closely followed the development of the situation this publication will hardly be an eye-opener. What is important is that the article openly admits that the absence of a depoliticized expert dialogue between Russia and the U.S. on international information security is not only a road to nowhere but also a dangerous course fraught with further misunderstanding and a risk of a large-scale conflict.
Dear guests!
Today we are celebrating the most exciting date in the ballet lovers’ calendar.
Established in 2006, Russian Ballet Icons Gala has become the great London tradition and one of the most expected highlights.
Ladies and Gentlemen!
It is my honor and pleasure to welcome the participants of today's Airline Total Networking.
Let me express my deep gratitude to all present companies and organizations for their efforts in ensuring interconnectivity within national boarders, between countries and continents and, ultimately, among all the nations and people.
Mr. President,
We thank Under-Secretary-General Rosemary DiCarlo and Director of the OCHA Coordination Division Ramesh Rajasingham for the briefing.
The development of the military and political situation in the Syrian Arab Republic has recently gone through drastic changes. The terrorist threat was suppressed at the major part of the country’s territory. As a result, the authority of the legal government was reinstalled. The violence level dropped significantly. Great efforts are taken in order to restore the devastated infrastructure and get the liberated areas back to normal life. Of course, it would be premature to say that it is the end of the Syrian conflict. There are many serious tasks to accomplish first.
Above all, it is vital to set forth the intense activities in support of the efforts of Special Envoy G.Pedersen that would build up the momentum of the political settlement in Syria. The Astana ‘troika’ also facilitates the work of the Special Envoy and contributes to the developments on the political track.
