Initially, many doubted it, not because they didn&#8217;t believe it could happen a year and a half ago, but because the Western world was hesitant to accept it. Those who had predicted it faced silencing, accusations of collusion with the Kremlin, and some even ended up in legal trouble. Even now, they have tried to convince their Western audience that such a development was impossible. However, this breakthrough has unequivocally shown that a return to the old ways is out of the question.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maria Zakharova, Chief State Propagandists<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>BRICS: Because Who Wants G7 When You Can Have Russia&#8217;s Masterclass in Alternative Diplomacy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>BRICS is evolving into an exclusive alliance of nations, not only in opposition to the West but as a showcase to the world that there exists an alternative path. It seeks to challenge the Western hegemony, both in political and economic spheres. The key lies in our collective determination to detach ourselves from Western influence. Russia, as a pivotal military and political force within BRICS, possesses the capability to assert that no one should underestimate this coalition. It will transform into a completely distinct organization, providing a credible alternative not only to the G7 but, I dare say, even the G20. This reimagined entity will make it abundantly clear that it stands apart from the Western paradigm.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Guest and Propagandist on Roman Golovanov Show, Solovievlive<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Anti-LGBTQIA+ Rhetoric<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2>Parades Near Churches and LGBTQ+ Military Units Sparked a &#8216;Saintly&#8217; Reaction in Russia!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>They [Ukrainians] have organized gay pride parades near significant religious sites in Kyiv.\u00a0 CN<em>N has reported on gay marriage within the Ukrainian armed forces, portraying it as a symbol of freedom. It&#8217;s come to light that there are units in the Ukrainian armed forces with a focus on the LGBTQ+ community, while in Russia, we have battalions named after saints.

It&#8217;s clear that they are grappling with a crisis, and it&#8217;s crucial for us to face this reality. Regrettably, they tend to shield people from seeing the truth. Their approach seems to involve suppressing dissent and projecting themselves as leaders, compared to [Russia&#8217;s] a different approach centered on genuine equality, not as a mere concept but as an actual practice.

When faced with extensive artillery bombardment using cluster munitions, it&#8217;s strategically wiser to relocate our personnel. Looking ahead, we recognize the need to go on the offensive.
