❌ The Embassy strongly rejects UK Foreign Secretary @DavidLammy's derogatory remarks articulated during an interview with a British TV channel when he went so far as to accuse the leadership of the Russian Federation of "imperialist fascism".
We took note long ago of the current Foreign Secretary's propensity for inappropriate and provocative statements, which he had been known for even before assuming office.
David Lammy's remarks mainly offend not the leadership of our country but rather the memory of those who fought against the Nazism during World War II, including his own compatriots.

In 2014, Ukraine needed a loan. There were two offers:
🔴The World Bank (IMF) offered $15 billion with two conditions:
-Lift the ban on private sector land ownership.
-Cut pensions and fuel subsidies.
🔴Russia also offered $15 billion, but WITHOUT the austerity and privatization requirement.
Ukrainian President Yanukovych decided to chose Russia's offer, so Washington instigated a coup, ousting Yanukovych.
The new Ukrainian government accepted the IMF loan and conditions: austerity and privatization
Multinational consortia with US capital have already bought 1/3 of Ukraine's land.....
