Russia condemns all nationalism… Sure they do 🤔🙄
WhoKraine?
Ceylon
Amusing comments from the Kremlin, seeing as Russia is famously rather racist and very nationalist; currently engaged on nationalist motivated imperialist war.
If I were Russian or Ukrainian this is where I'd be right now. Screw dying over this nonsense.
Fake new
The Russian embassy just flat out lied about Russia not discriminating against people.
Russia condemns all forms of nationalism & discrimination unless it is carried out by Russians
Cowards
The key to their racism is the inferiority complex of Slavs when they compare themselves to other white European cultures.
Russians and Ukrainians are conspiring to steal the world with fake war. US and Eu are struggling with inflation while Russians and Ukrainians enjoy the sun and Sri Lanka. Leave them; we need to live; we need to stop inflation and high prices.
Wait, why would the Russian embassy be supporting the draft dodgers? The Russian embassy represents the Russian government so shouldn't they be against draft dodgers? 😅
Russians seem to have forgotten about 1939.
They have a short memory too about Crimea and what they did to the original occupants in 2014.
Every word that comes out of Putlers mouth or out of the Russian foreign ministers is pure dog shite… The country has been attacking neighbouring countries systematically for decades.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Sad that a few spoil it for the rest.
The Russian they slowly travel 🧳 in the Philippines 🇵🇭🤣🤣
I'd believe that to be true. Many Ukrainians the fled to England said they wanted to be put in "white only" communities. They tried it in Canada too. Lots of racism. Saying they "feared for their lives" when seeing someone that wasn't white working at a store or just walking around.
Channel 4 covered this, for those asking for source.
Don't bring racism to our Spiritual Culture, i think it's now time to leave!!! Adios 👐🏽
