The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia published a tweet supporting Marine Le Pen, which she did not appreciate, calling it interference in the French elections.
The tweet on the ministry’s English-language page on the X social network stated:
“The people of France seek a sovereign foreign policy that serves their national interests and a departure from the dictates of Washington and Brussels. French officials will not be able to ignore these profound changes in the attitudes of the vast majority of citizens.”
It was accompanied by a photo of Le Pen from the first round of the parliamentary elections in France, which took place at the end of June.
Le Pen responded on TF1 channel:
“I have nothing to do with Russian provocations against France and against Emmanuel Macron. I can say that if they really had an interest (in cooperation), they would not write on Twitter. Therefore, I think that this is a provocation and, by the way, maybe an intervention. Because when you make such an ostentatious and provocative tweet, it can be seen as a form of election interference.”
Vladimir Putin stated that Russia will not cease fire in Ukraine, expressing that peace through mediators and the Council does not suit him. He claimed that Russia cannot agree to a ceasefire as it is not confident in Kyiv's actions.
Putin alleged that there were supposed agreements for the withdrawal of Russian troops from Kyiv in 2022, but claimed there were no reciprocal steps from Ukraine. He accused Ukraine of discarding the agreements reached in Istanbul, though he did not specify the steps he expected from Kyiv.

Ukrainian defenders have shared footage of a failed assault on their positions by Putin's Orcs. As a result of this attack, 30 enemies were eliminated. But the most interesting thing is that one of the destroyed stormtroopers had a Mosin rifle, which had been in service since 1891!! "Mosinka" was in service with the Russian army in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905, the First and Second World Wars.

❗️ In the temporarily occupied Crimea, russia has stolen artefacts and completely destroyed an authentic monument of world significance — ancient Chersonesos.
Among the objects taken to russian museums are frescoes, dishes, household items and icons. It also became known about illegal construction on the site of the destroyed world heritage site.
According to Yevheniia Kravchuk, the Deputy Head of the Committee on Humanitarian and Information Policy, the site of the historical monument is now an imperial "theatre".
The MP recalled the adopted PACE Resolution on russia's genocidal intent to destroy Ukrainian cultural heritage and identity.
Just as our Scythian gold was returned to Ukraine, so will the other treasures of the peninsula be at home. And justice will be restored. This is already happening within the ECHR, where the Ukrainian team continues to defend our case,
says Yevheniia Kravchuk.
