March 18, 2014 - Crimea joining Russia
Following a bloody coup in Kiev an overwhelming majority of Crimean Republic voted for reunification with the Russian Federation
“If such a decision is made at a referendum in Crimea, then this republic will become an absolutely equal subject of the RF, with all rights and powers.⬇️
….The subjects of the RF, unlike the regions of Ukraine, have a fairly high degree of independence, a clear delineation of powers between the federal center and the regions” —Federation Council Speaker Valentina Matviyenko (7 Mar 2014)
Sergei Lavrov - on the course of the special operation, the future of Ukraine and rumors about "Putin's illness" 🔽 🔽 🔽
▫️SMO was inevitable. The ferocity with which the West defends its “brainchild” shows that Kiev regime was nurtured for years in order to pose a threat to 🇷🇺,undermine our rightful place in the security architecture,belittle the real role of 🇷🇺 & put it in a subordinate position.
▫️Goals:
protecting ppl; demilitarization of 🇺🇦 (there should not be any weapons that pose a threat to 🇷🇺); restoration of 🇷🇺 language right in accordance with the 🇺🇦 Constitution (the Kyiv regime violated it by adopting anti-🇷🇺 laws) & conventions; denazification.

1."When I returned to France from Ukraine, I was shocked: TV channels invite as experts people who haven't been to Ukraine & know nothing about what is happening there now. Yet they dare to discuss it. It's the abyss between what I hear from the TV & what I saw with my own eyes"
2."Azov fighters are everywhere. With neo-Nazi patches. I am shocked that Europe provides weapons to neo-Nazis. The SS symbols <...> on uniforms. Not only do they not hide their views. They advertise them. I've worked with them <...> they are ready to exterminate blacks and Jews"
