‼️Foreign Ministry statement on extending the Russian list of German citizens banned from entering the Russian Federation
🔸For a long period of time, the story about a “Russian trace” in the hacking incident concerning the computer networks of the German Bundestag in 2015 has been consistently promoted by official Berlin as part of its media and political campaign. The purpose of the campaign was to create a pretext for introducing a new package of unilateral sanctions against Russia by the European Union (EU). The Council of the European Union issued the respective decision on October 22, 2020, with regard to two Russian individuals and one Russian legal entity.
🔸Russia’s representatives have repeatedly proposed to their German counterparts that bilateral expert consultations be conducted, based on the data which Germany allegedly has and which indicates the possibility of Russian citizens being involved in the 2015 incident, in order to identify the source of the malicious cyber activity; however, the German officials have been persistently ignoring these proposals. This approach demonstrates that Berlin was never actually interested in a genuine investigation into the so-called Russian hackers’ case and the entire situation was originally designed as yet another provocation against our country.
🔸In response to the above mentioned destructive action on behalf of the EU, Moscow has made a decision to extend its retaliatory list of German citizens banned from entering the Russian Federation. According to the diplomatic principle of reciprocity, the new persons on the Russian restricted list include senior officials of German security and intelligence agencies which are part of Germany’s Federal Ministry of Defence. The restrictions have been imposed under Federal Law No. 114-FZ On the Procedures for Entry to and Exit from the Russian Federation dated August 15, 1996.
🔸Should the German officials continue the confrontational course of action, we reserve the right to take further response measures.

❗Foreign Ministry statement regarding OPCW response to Russia’s request for technical assistance to clarify the situation around Alexey Navalny
On October 1, we sent a request to Fernando Arias, Director-General of the #OPCW and head of its Technical Secretariat, for technical assistance under Clause 38 (е) of Article VIII of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). Two and a half months later, we are still waiting for a meaningful response. Their explanation is the absence of the German authorities’ permission for full-scale cooperation between the agency’s experts and competent Russian organisations to clarify the circumstances of what Berlin describes as the poisoning of the blogger. Russia’s suggestions regarding the main modalities of a planned visit of OPCW Technical Secretariat’s representatives to Russia have been rejected as well.
We planned to make use of the OPCW expertise in the pre-investigation probe conducted by #Russian law enforcement agencies to clarify the main questions, namely, the place, mode and circumstances under which chemical substances appeared in the blogger’s biomaterials outside Russia, which the authorities of Germany, France and Sweden, as well as the OPCW Technical Secretariat “unmistakably” established to be from the group of chemical compounds denoted as Novichok in the West for political reasons. It is notable that these compounds are not on the list of chemical weapons controlled by the CWC. Nevertheless, experts from the above countries managed to reach firm conclusions even though prior to that, their countries’ officials denied the very fact of conducting their own research into the infamous Novichok class agents.
Russia requested OPCW’s technical assistance after its numerous calls for due cooperation had been rejected by Germany as well as France and Sweden, which Berlin involved in analysing Navalny’s samples. Therefore, these three countries actually failed to implement their obligation to provide legal assistance to Russia’s law enforcement and other specialised agencies, as set out in Article VII of the CWC and the European Convention on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters. The Prosecutor General’s Office and the Foreign Ministry of Russia have sent about a dozen such requests, and received several negative replies that are inarticulate when it comes to the essence of the matter. In essence they said that Alexey Navalny himself and the German Government did not allow disclosing to Russia the formulas of the chemical substances found in the blogger’s samples.
We hoped for a different kind of response when we requested OPCW assistance (we will make public the related correspondence between #Russia’s Permanent Representative and the OPCW). We have not received it. The OPCW has again been made hostage to those who are stubbornly trying to use it in their geopolitical interests. As a result, our trust in the OPCW is rapidly declining.

2020-12-22 10:13:44+00:00
‼️ We consider the adoption by the European Union at the behest of its leading Member States of illegitimate restrictive measures against some of our fellow citizens under the pretext of their alleged involvement in the incident with Russian citizen Alexei Navalny to be absolutely unacceptable. Moreover, the countries that initiated this step have failed to provide any evidence on the case, both to the Russian authorities, despite the latters' repeated requests, and to their own EU partners. Acting in a hasty and secretive manner, the EU Council took a confrontational political decision that runs counter to the UN Security Council's international legal prerogatives, as well as the Helsinki principles of non-intervention in the internal affairs, cooperation among States and good-faith fulfilment of obligations under international law. Specific names were selected at random to fit this EU Council decision.
🇷🇺In view of the above, the Russian side, acting on the basis of reciprocity, has decided to expand the list of representatives of EU Member States and institutions who will be denied entry to the Russian Federation. Among them are those who are responsible for promoting anti-Russian sanctions initiatives within the framework of the European Union.
🔹Relevant restrictions are being introduced under Federal Law No.ll4-FZ on the Procedure of Exit from and Entry into the Russian Federation of 15 August 1996.
📄Respective notes by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation have been transmitted to the heads of diplomatic missions of Germany, France and Sweden to Russia, as well as to the Delegation of the European Union in Moscow in due order, notifying them of the measure undertaken.
❗We reaffirm that any unfriendly action by Western countries will inevitably be met with an adequate response.

2020-12-19 08:11:30+00:00
❗❗Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Russian and Syrian efforts to eradicate terrorism in Syria
🔹#Moscow has taken note of a statement made by #US Secretary of State’s Special Envoy for #Syria Joel Rayburn to the effect that Russia and the Assad regime are aggravating the problem of terrorism in Syria. He has accused Moscow and #Damascus, without any substantiation, of involvement in the bombing and artillery raids on Idlib, which allegedly do not target terrorists but innocent civilians, infrastructure and armed opposition groups. He has also said that he believes that #Russia and the Damascus regime are not doing enough to combat terrorism.
🔹We are not going to let such statements go unanswered. It is obvious that the increasingly positive dynamics on the ground in Syria remains a concern for the legitimate Damascus government’s ill-wishers. This is not the first time that such accusations have been made against the Russian and Syrian military within the framework of a large-scale campaign waged by the United States and its allies to promote fake news and allegations. Meanwhile, it was as a result of Russia’s decisive contribution that a deadly blow has been delivered to international terrorism in Syria.
🔹At present, a sustainable ceasefire is maintained in Syria. The Syrian Army, supported by Russia’s Aerospace Forces, reciprocates the armed provocations launched by the radical illegal armed groups on the border of the Idlib de-escalation zone, and continues to conduct local counterterrorism operations in the desert regions of east Syria. The ISIS groups entrenched there regularly make daring attacks on the positions of the Syrian Army and Russian military personnel. The fight against terrorists in Syria will continue until their complete elimination.
🔹We reaffirm our readiness to cooperate on Syria with all interested countries, including the United States, in particular when it comes to combating terrorism. We are open to any initiative for developing direct interaction channels between the concerned agencies. This could really help the cause. We urge our international and regional partners to redouble constructive collective efforts on Syria in accordance with #UN Security Council Resolution 2254, instead of sabotaging them by making unsubstantiated accusations and chanting vacuous political mantras.

❗ Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria #Zakharova on a new set of US sanctions
☝️ Regrettably, the #US authorities have decided to celebrate Human Rights Day, which is marked on December 10, by adopting new sanctions against Russian individuals and entities.
As usual, the reasons for the latest set of restrictions are far-fetched and unsubstantiated. We regard this as nothing more than a clumsy publicity stunt designed to sell the image of Russians as “human rights violators” to the international community.
Those who compiled the new sanctions list do have plenty of imagination. They have added to the sanctions list an entire football club that is well known in #Russia and beyond. This reminded me of a time when sanctions were adopted against the Chaika swimming pool, possibly because it is located near the Krymsky (Crimean) Bridge in #Moscow. We will ask our American colleagues which place in Russia’s geography prompted them to turn their wrath on a football club, when we can.

❗ Comment by the Foreign Ministry’s Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding with the UN’s World Food Programme school nutrition programmes in Cuba and Nicaragua
💬 On December 8, Viktor Vasiliev, Russia’s Permanent Representative to the #FAO and Other #UN Agencies in Rome, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the UN World Food Programme on the procedure for transferring and spending the Russian Federation’s $10 million donation on the development of sustainable school nutrition systems in Cuba and Nicaragua in 2020-2023.
The parties are implementing this project under the April 2019 Strategic Partnership Agreement between the Government of the Russian Federation and the World Food Programme. The project will make it possible to provide children from the neediest families in #Cuba and #Nicaragua with healthy and free lunches at schools. This is particularly important during the ongoing #COVID-19 pandemic and will help reduce child disease and mortality rates, as well as the scale of child labour.
The Russian Federation will continue to actively cooperate with the World Food Programme in providing emergency food assistance to the population of the neediest countries. These priorities include Central Asian countries, #Syria, #Yemen and African states.
Considering UN forecasts, as regards an aggravated humanitarian situation in 2021, #Russia, as a responsible member of the international community, will continue to strengthen cooperation with the World Food Programme, which was awarded the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize for its outstanding contribution to the fight against famine during crises.

❗Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on the Russian citizen detained in Denmark
💬The Russian Foreign Ministry is monitoring the situation concerning the Russian citizen who was detained in Denmark in July of this year and charged with working for the Russian security services. He has been provided with a lawyer. He pleads not guilty.
We consider the arrest and the beginning of the trial to be the next stage of anti-Russian hysteria on the part of Copenhagen. Such unsubstantiated accusations resemble a witch-hunt, thereby jeopardising the activities of Russian specialists in Denmark.
Since the Russian citizen was detained, the consular department of the Russian Embassy in Denmark has been providing him with the necessary assistance, repeatedly visiting him in a temporary detention facility and helping to get in touch with his family and friends.
We hope that justice – despite the biased nature of the charges against our compatriot – will prevail.
