Antisemitism in Russia

Moscow has issued a stern warning, stating that it will target British sites if British weapons are used by Ukraine to strike Russian territory. This statement was made by Maria Zakharova, the spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, and reported by Reuters.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has referred to the Bulgarian government as a "ruling regime," criticizing its handling of Victory Day commemorations and Europe Day events.

Russia's Foreign Ministry is actively engaged in negotiations to establish visa-free travel agreements with several nations across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, as reported by TASS.

Moscow has officially voiced its dissatisfaction with European Union (EU) ambassadors who refused to meet with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, citing concerns over interference in Russia's upcoming presidential elections.

Russia called that move a "reckless" violation of the treaty, RIA reported.
Ecuador's government said last month it would accept an offer from Washington to exchange what it called "Ukrainian and Russian scrap metal" for advanced US equipment worth $200 million.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov arrived last night in the capital of North Macedonia, Skopje, for the meeting of his colleagues from the countries of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), as his plane bypassed Bulgaria.

Russia has denied stealing Carlsberg's business, saying its seizure was legal, in reaction to remarks made almost two weeks ago by the head of the Danish brewery company.

Carlsberg had announced in June that a buyer had been found for Baltika, which it has owned since 2000, and its 8,400 employees.

In a move that could further strain diplomatic ties, Russia has accused Bulgaria of demonstrating "open hostility" in the ongoing dispute over the Church of Saint Nicholas the Miracle-Maker in Sofia.

The only representative of Bulgarian public media in Moscow - BNR correspondent Angel Grigorov, was summoned to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

This happens hours after the information that the correspondent of the "Rossiyskaya Gazeta" newspaper Alexander Gatsak has left Bulgaria following the order of the head of the National Security Agency (SANS).

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will hold talks with his Turkish counterpart in Russia on August 31 and September 1, spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday. [Reuters]
