Russian Embassy in London

🇷🇺🇬🇧Dear subscribers, we invite you to join the official Telegram channel of the Russian Embassy in the UK.

The #UK government has followed in #Russia's footsteps and, after 20 years, finally listed Hizb ut-Tahrir as a terrorist entity. In the past the #US and the #EU, of which the UK was then part, made critical statements about Russia's sustained efforts since 2003 to investigate and prosecute Hizb ut-Tahrir extremists. We invite the UK to continue to draw on Russia's experience and ban other terrorist groups, including the Ukrainian "Pravy Sector" and the neo-Nazi "Azov" regiment.

💬Andrei Kelin to Andrew Marr on LBC News: The document that signed by the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and President Zelensky is a memorandum of promises. It outlines British policy towards #Ukraine and clearly states that Ukraine will not get negotiated settlement and should fight. Find out more

✈️ On January 18, a special flight of the Russian Ministry of Emergencies delivered another shipment of humanitarian aid to Kabul, comprising 33 tonnes of food products. This humanitarian action confirms that a special positive potential exists for interaction between the states, including via regional organisations that provide assistance to the friendly Afghan people who are suffering from the devastating earthquake in Herat province in October 2023. 🤝 Russia, for its part, will continue to provide free assistance to the people of Afghanistan.

⚡️ Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on tensions between Iran and Pakistan 💬 We are closely monitoring the growing tensions on the Iranian-Pakistani border areas with great concern. We urge both parties to exercise ultimate restraint and resolve the situation through political and diplomatic means. Once again, we emphasise the importance of conducting any counter-terrorist operations outside of sovereign territory only after reaching an agreement and coordinating with the authorities of the states involved. It is discouraging that these events are occurring between friendly states, members of the SCO, with whom we are developing partnership relations. The further escalation will only benefit those who are not interested in peace, stability and security in the region. ☝️ We hope that Iran and Pakistan will soon find a way to settle the conflict in the spirit of traditional neighbourliness, including by addressing the elimination of terrorist threats originating from their respective territories. We underscore Russia’s unwavering readiness to cooperate in the fight against international terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.

🇷🇺🇰🇵 On January 14-18, Foreign Minister of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea Choe Son-hui was in Moscow on an official visit, during which she met with President Vladimir Putin. Talks with Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov presented a meaningful exchange of opinions on topical matters dealing with developing bilateral ties with a focus on implementing the agreements resulting from the September summit between the Leaders of the two countries at the Vostochny Space Launch Centre, including the schedule of future political contacts. 🤝 The two Ministers agreed on the need to keep up the current momentum in terms of cooperation on practical matters, further improve the contractual legal framework and step up humanitarian and cultural exchanges. They discussed the situation on the Korean Peninsula and in Northeast Asia, reaffirming their mutual commitment to political and diplomatic means of settling tensions in the region, which have been escalating due to the irresponsible and provocative actions by the United States and its satellites. #RussiaDPRK

💬 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov: ⚡️ Afghanistan... Libya, Iraq. Look at any country where the US & its satellites carried out their “misadventures”. Did the situation improve anywhere? Ukraine will sadly suffer the same fate [as Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq]. If one relies on its master, unaware that the master always thinks solely of oneself, you cannot count on the interests of your people to be taken into account. #Outcomes2023
