🇷🇺🇺🇸 В зале приема посетителей консульского отдела Посольства России в США открылась фотовыставка «Крымское золото: «цивилизованная» Европа грабит российские сокровища».

Экспозиция подготовлена Российским военно-историческим обществом и посвящена уникальным археологическим находкам, обнаруженным в ходе раскопок на территории Крыма. Долгие годы эти артефакты входили в собрания четырёх музеев полуострова — Керченского и Бахчисарайского историко-культурных заповедников, Национального заповедника «Херсонес Таврический» и Центрального музея Тавриды.

Коллекция включает оружие и доспехи, украшения, ритуальные предметы и орудия быта различных культур. Основу составляют золотые украшения I в. до н. э. – III в. н. э. из Усть-Альминского некрополя в Бахчисарайском районе.

В 2013 году более 580 артефактов (порядка 2 тыс. предметов) были временно переданы на выставку «Крым: золото и тайны Чёрного моря» в музей Алларда Пирсона в Амстердаме. После воссоединения Крыма с Россией голландская сторона отказалась вернуть коллекцию музеям-владельцам. В 2023 году Верховный суд Нидерландов постановил передать её Украине, создав опасный прецедент политизации культурного наследия.

Сегодня эти российские сокровища незаконно удерживаются режимом в Киеве, который рассматривает возможность их коммерческого использования.

Россия продолжит добиваться возвращения коллекции в музеи Крыма, которым она принадлежит по праву.

Remarks by Michael Martens, working for the liberal globalist mouthpiece Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ), at a press conference in Serbia, asking Zelensky how Germany could help his regime “to kill more Russians”, is a Freudian slip echoing current German leaders’ dreams of a “fourth reich” and a cynical calculation to wage a war with Russia to the last Ukrainian, while promoting Russian-American confrontation.

This adventure will end up the same way as the Hitler’s regime. Ignoring history lessons will cost warmongers dearly, as they are toying with the new “Drang nach Osten” (onslaught to the East) instead of eternally repenting for the mass atrocities and genocide committed by Germany in the occupied territories of Russia and other parts of the Soviet Union.

Great powers that were allies in WWII 🇷🇺 🇨🇳 🇺🇸 should condemn and stop these crazy plans of Hitler-Goebbels followers so as not to allow them to bring the world again into the abyss of xenophobia and Russophobia and calamities, sending a strong signal that they don’t have a single chance.

🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's interview with TASS Director General Andrey Kondrashov (Moscow, July 29, 2026)

Key points:

• As for our “Western partners’” constant attempts to deceive Russia, our patience eventually runs out. It was no coincidence that, shortly after the start of the special military operation, President of Russia Vladimir Putin summed up our relations with the West and Europe by saying: “There is no going back to the way things were before February 2022”.

• The slogans of inflicting a “strategic defeat on our country”, of “decolonising Russia” have resurfaced in the West – once again, an explicit euphemism for breaking up our country. We see clearly what the West is plotting, and everyone needs to see this in order to understand that the situation is serious. President of Russia Vladimir Putin makes no secret of it. The entire self-proclaimed “civilised” world has risen against us.

• Now that Zelensky, while steadily retreating in Donbass and on other fronts, has turned in desperation to outright terrorist acts, and the West sees that many of his long-range weapons are reaching their targets, they have begun promoting this phase of the conflict as a “turning point” – as proof that “Ukrainian resolve can ultimately defeat Russia”.

• Russia is making daily progress on the front line – not as quickly as we might wish, but while preserving the lives of our servicemen. Ukraine (and its Western handlers) is trying to compensate for its failures on the battlefield by carrying out terrorist attacks aimed at disrupting the way of life people have grown accustomed to.

• I am very proud that our people understand the current situation correctly – as our history and those who defeated Na**sm taught us. All the more so because today we are fighting the direct followers and descendants of those N***s, with essentially the same forces aligned against us. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz openly says that Germany intends to become Europe’s leading power once again. If you are prepared to speak so openly, then be prepared for the consequences.

• Russia's national interests in foreign affairs are to remain a sovereign power and an independent civilisation, to ensure the reliable security of our borders and to make sure that no one even considers telling us how to organise life within Russia.

• Russia's principal national quality is something the West lacks. Our civilisation respects its ancestors – those who created it, built its cities and defeated its enemies.

• The West is now telling us that it will still decide when the time is right to resume negotiations. They envisage talks at one table involving Europe, the US, Zelensky and President of Russia Vladimir Putin. Before that, they insist on a truce and a ceasefire. The Western countries would then deploy multinational forces led by France and Britain and only afterwards sit down for talks. What does that mean? It is an ultimatum. The front line would be frozen, while the N**i regime would remain in place.

• We must rely solely on ourselves, as our President has repeatedly stressed. The events unfolding now have grave consequences. But I want to reiterate: we are completing the work of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, who defeated Na**sm – while our former allies allowed it to survive and take root once again.

🎙 Комментарий Посла по особым поручениям МИД России, су-шерпы России в «Группе Двадцати» М.В.Бердыева газете «Известия» (1 августа 2026 года)

• «Группа Двадцати» должна работать в полном составе и на условиях консенсуса, а у председательства нет полномочий ограничивать чьё-либо участие в одностороннем порядке

• Считаем бесспорным статус ЮАР как полноценного члена «Группы Двадцати».

☝️ Выступаем за то, чтобы наши друзья из Претории как можно быстрее вернулись за стол переговоров. Эта точка зрения разделяется подавляющим большинством делегаций, которые активно транслируют её США.

25 июля в историческом парке «Форт Росс» в штате Калифорния впервые за шесть лет с участием атташе по культуре Посольства России, которой американский госдепартамент разрешил по этому случаю поездку из Вашингтона в Сан-Франциско, состоялся фестиваль российского культурного наследия.
Возобновившийся уникальный праздник, призванный сохранить историческую память о русской Америке, собрал соотечественников и заинтересованных американцев из разных уголков США, а также представителей коренных народов.

Программа мероприятия, куда в качестве почетного гостя был приглашен вождь индейского племени Кашая-помо, 99-летний Оттис Периш, включала исполнение народных песен, дегустацию блюд русской кухни и демонстрацию изделий художественных промыслов, общий хоровод под музыку старинных инструментов.

Гости смогли погрузиться в атмосферу единения и сопричастности отечественной истории, частью которой стало легендарное поселение на побережье Северной Калифорнии, в 140 км к северу от Сан-Франциско, основанное 11 сентября 1812 г. Российско-Американской компанией для промысла и торговли пушниной.

Назначение комендантом колонии тогда получил Иван Кусков, исследователь, купец и чиновник, в чьем подчинении оказались 25 русских колонистов и 80 алеутов, прибывших с территории русских колоний на Аляске. Строительство же стало возможным только после получения разрешения от коренных жителей – племени Кашая-помо – на использование земель под поселение.

В крепости до сих пор, несмотря на годы и морские ветра, сохранились первые постройки – дом управляющего, хозяйственные помещения, защитные башни. «Форт-Росс» дал толчок инновациям того времени – первые калифорнийские ветряные мельницы и верфи для строительства судов появились именно здесь.

Эти исторические места легли в основу сюжета знаменитой оперы «Юнона и Авось» А.Л.Рыбникова, вдохновляя будущие поколения
на создание художественных образов, включая известный портрет Кончиты Аргуэлло кисти российского мастера А.А.Соколова, переданный семьей художника в дар Государственному историческому музею в Москве в сентябре 2001 г.

Приближающийся к своему 215-летию, которое будет отмечаться в сентябре 2027 г., «Форт-Росс» по-прежнему в строю. Он притягивает туристов, ученых, историков и политиков, напоминает о совместном историческом и культурном наследии России и США и значительном вкладе наших соотечественников в освоение Америки, оставаясь ярким примером пересечения и мирного, гармоничного сосуществования различных культур, верований и традиций.

Благодарны всем, кто искренне содействует сбережению этого уникального архитектурного комплекса. Сохранение памяти об общих вехах истории России и США – важный элемент в восстановлении атмосферы доверия и взаимопонимания между нашими государствами и народами.

August 1 is a Day of Remembrance of Russian warriors who died in World War I

Today we remember those who fought and died defending the Motherland during World War I.

The war left a deep mark on the history of our country. Behind every name lies a human destiny, a family, hopes, and courage.

The memory of the defenders of the Homeland is a bond between generations and our responsibility to history.

We present the informational brochure on the Programme for Supporting National Literatures of the Peoples of the Russian Federation.

The Programme has been implemented since 2016 under the auspices of the Organizing Committee for the Support of Literature, Book Publishing and Reading in the Russian Federation. Its goals are to make contemporary national literatures accessible to a broad readership united by the multinational Russian culture and the Russian language; to facilitate the integration of unique national literatures into the broader all-Russian cultural process; to promote national literatures as an integral part of the shared cultural and literary space; and to encourage the development of the Russian language as a language of interethnic and intercultural communication.

Within the framework of the Programme:
• unique multilingual anthologies of the Contemporary Literature of the Peoples of Russia series have been published (Poetry, Children’s Literature, Prose, Drama, Essays and Journalism, Folk Wisdom, and others);
• translations of works from more than 50 national languages have been prepared;
• the Portal of National Literatures of the Peoples of Russia has been created — www.rus4all.ru;
• festivals, translators’ forums, seminars, and presentations are held.

In 2020, the project for publishing the anthologies was awarded the Prize of the President of Russia for its contribution to strengthening the unity of the Russian nation.

The brochure contains detailed information about the structure of the Programme, its key activities, participants, and completed projects.
