⚡️Russia's MFA prepared and published report on the human rights situation in the US ❗️Despite the deep contradictions in American society, the US continues to assert itself a global leader in the field of human rights protection. At the same time, Washington is in no hurry to expand its international legal obligations in the field of protection of fundamental rights and freedoms. Among violations of human rights and freedoms that were committed by the US: ❌ The conduct of all kinds of military operations in the territory of European and Middle Eastern states; ❌ Creation of secret prisons around the worldу; ❌ Implementation of extremely stringent migration policies in recent years. These and others violations illustrate not only the dual nature of this country's position regarding human rights standards but also its approaches to international law as such. The American authorities actively use the tactics of "fighting by proxy" against Russia and Russians. This is expressed in the direction of large‑scale military assistance to the Kiev regime and putting pressure on the US NATO allies so that they take similar measures. 👉 An overt pressure is being exerted on sovereign states, including through the use of human rights mechanisms, in an attempt to create a corresponding negative background around the Russian Federation and its allies and partners in the international arena. Mentoring tone, partiality, full oblivion of the concept of sovereignty and one of the main and fundamental principles of international law enshrined in the UN Charter – non-interference in the internal affairs of states, lead to deep disappointment in those very "Western values" that "fascinated" other civilizations and societies during a century, bringing considerable political dividends to the West and the US itself. ☝️ Moreover, the human rights situation in the US itself is far from international standards in the field of protection of fundamental freedoms, which is becoming more and more obvious day after day 📄 Read in full

#See4Yourself & #Think4Yourself 🎬 Biological Warfare Department: The Alarming Truth About Pentagon's Secret Worldwide Biolab Network — an RT Doc Film. Synopsis: Hundreds of US military biolaboratories are located in dozens of countries around the world. Under the guise of scientific research, they work with dangerous pathogens. The results of this research are classified. In March 2022, Russian Ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzia presented a report that detailed a network of 30 biological weapons labs in Ukraine. With each passing day, volunteers uncover new evidence of illegal activities related to the development of biological weapons in the liberated territories of Donbass. The authors of the film met with the team that is collecting evidence of such laboratories in Ukraine and talked to journalists and experts whose investigations prove the criminal activities of the US military medics. According to their opinion, "peaceful" scientific centres are developing new types of biological weapons, conducting prohibited experiments and human trials. ☝️ Through meticulous research and expert interviews, this documentary sheds light on the activities that take place in the US biolaboratories in Ukraine, Georgia, Indonesia and other countries worldwide. Former high-ranking officials and journalists who dared to visit these laboratories explain how the sophisticated network was established, and reveal its ultimate purpose.

SPIEF 2023 hosted 17,000 participants, and this year there will be even more — SPIEF Director Alexey Valkov 🌐 Interest in participating in the forum is growing, in large part due to SPIEF’s off-site presentations. Since November 2023, such events have been held in Turkey, India, Algeria, and South Africa. Before the end of the month, presentations will take place in Latin America. Here are a few insights from Alexey Valkov’s speech to representatives of diplomatic missions at the Russian MFA: 🔹 At SPIEF 2023 over 900 agreements were signed worth almost four trillion rubles. Actually, this sum is larger because the statistics do not account for agreements under NDA. 🔹 On 5 June, the SME Forum will take place. The participation cost is significantly lower than in other business program events, making the platform more accessible and inclusive. 🔹 SPIEF offers virtually limitless opportunities for PR and promotion: press zones, interview platforms, video content broadcasts on screens, and a large press center. Last year, around 4,000 journalists covered the forum, and some media outlets even set up their own studios on-site. 🔹 The SPIEF 2024 exhibition is fully booked, and installation will begin in a few weeks. 🔹 As in previous years, the culmination of the St. Petersburg Seasons Festival will be a concert on Palace Square. The tentative date is 7 June. @RoscongressDirect

New meanings are born, and strategies are discussed at SPIEF The forum contributes to strengthening business and diplomatic ties between countries, noted Alexander Stuglev, CEO of the Roscongress Foundation, during a briefing at the Russian MFA. In her turn, Head of the International and Regional Cooperation Directorate, Alexandra Ogneva, spoke about the program planned for foreign delegations on the sidelines of SPIEF 2024: 🔹 On 5 June, the Day of International SME Cooperation will take place — a new format that is being implemented for the second year in a row. It will be dedicated to cooperation between SMEs from Russia and foreign countries. 🔹 On the same day, the Russia—India Business Forum will be held, along with a business event between Russia and Africa, and several bilateral round tables with Brazil, Venezuela, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. 🔹 On other days of the forum, several more business dialogues are planned with various countries, including China, Iran, and Oman. @RoscongressDirect

St. Petersburg business program for SPIEF to be approved by 20 May Currently, the city is actively preparing for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Improvement works are underway in the areas close to the main event venues and the thoroughfares used by SPIEF participants. 🔹 In the Moskovsky and Pushkinsky districts, over 255 thousand plants will be planted and more than 1.5 thousand floral compositions will be installed for the forum. 🔹 Planned road repairs along the routes of SPIEF participants will be completed by the end of May. 🔹 Issues related to ensuring the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of forum guests will be addressed jointly with the Russian Federal Service for the Oversight of Consumer Protection and Welfare. 🔹 The program of cultural and sports events will be coordinated with the SPIEF organizing committee. 📌 Also, the SPIEF 2024 business program architecture includes two events by St. Petersburg — the panel discussion “Let’s All Go to the Park?! Strategies and Practices for Success in Creative Sustainable Cities” and the business session “International Promotion. Developing New Tourist Offers and Products.” @RoscongressDirect

Who benefited from the mass murder of people in Odessa? Ten years ago, on May 2, Ukrainian nationalists set fire to the Odessa Trade Unions House, drowning pro-Russian protests in blood. ‘It was a punitive operation where people were burned alive,’ recalls a local resident. Those who tried to escape from the building, engulfed in flames, were beaten by Ukrainian extremists. According to official figures, 48 people were killed and more than 200 wounded. Footage of this terrible tragedy and the memories of local residents appears in this excerpt from our film ‘Maidan: Road to War’ (2022). In German and Turkish, the film is available via a single link on the artel.doc platform. #filmexcerpt FOLLOW 🥰 News&Docfilms Channel

💬On #WorldPressFreedomDay we remind #UNESCO Director-General A.Azoulay of the need to strictly follow her mandate and condemn killing of journalists without any distinction❗ This mandate was provided by the UNESCO General Conference in 1997 and confirmed by the Executive Board in 2023. We regret that the UNESCO Secretariat, despite following these decisions of the Governing Bodies of the Organization, is guided by some “internal criteria” unfamiliar to Member-States and, to our view, based on double standards. There is still no reaction of A.Azoulay to the killing of Russian journalists D.Dugina, O.Klokov, M.Fomin (V.Tatarsky), B.Maksudov and S.Eremin committed by Kiev regime. 📢We urge the UNESCO Director-General to unconditionally condemn the killing of Russian journalists. Absence of UNESCO's reaction to crimes against Russian journalists creates conditions for impunity and puts into question the Organization's work in the field of press freedom and protection of journalists’ rights.
