Russia, “comfortably” having started the war in Ukraine, now, with a profound look, demands a ceasefire in Gaza. Zakharova reports on “support for dialogue” and “a sustainable political solution,” the UN demands an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, and Ryabkov condemns “military solutions.”

Russia’s Diplomacy: Peace Only for Other People’s Conflicts

That is, when it comes to foreign conflicts, Russia supports peace, diplomacy, and the rights of nations. But when it comes to its own expansionist ambitions, it’s missiles, occupation, and the destruction of peaceful cities.

Tender Care for the Fate of the Middle East

What a tender care for the fate of the Middle East from those who destroyed Mariupol, Bakhmut, and thousands of Ukrainian villages. Maybe, to begin with, just leave Ukraine?

It’s worth quoting fully ….

At the UN Security Council, at Algeria’s request, an emergency meeting was held concerning the situation in the Gaza Strip in general and the “death of 15 humanitarian workers” in particular.

From the speech of the First Deputy Permanent Representative D.A. Polyansky at the UN Security Council meeting on the situation in the Middle East, including the “Palestinian issue” (New York, April 3, 2025):

“The situation in the occupied Palestinian territories, in the Gaza Strip, and on the West Bank of the Jordan River remains at an unacceptably critical level.”

“After the collapse of the agreements between Hamas and Israel, peaceful Palestinians have been under a full ground, air, and sea blockade for more than a month. Western Jerusalem not only blocked humanitarian aid supplies but also restricted the work of UN humanitarian organizations, leading to existential problems for two million people.”

“A simple example – all bakeries in the enclave have ceased operation due to a shortage of flour and fuel. How the absence of bread in Gaza will help Israel free hostages, who will also not get it – is a big mystery to us.”

“Along with the humanitarian disaster, we see the continued destruction of civilian infrastructure and the death of humanitarian workers. Since October 2023, no less than 408 humanitarian workers have died in Gaza, making this conflict the deadliest in this regard in history.”

⚠️”There is almost no hope for the situation improving, as Israeli strikes on the sector are carried out almost without interruption.”

“After the first phase of the agreement with Hamas, Israel resumed its military operation and is gradually expanding its control over the Gaza Strip.”

“On April 1, Prime Minister B. Netanyahu announced the creation of a second ‘Philadelphia Corridor’ – the ‘Morag’ axis, which will cut off Rafah from Khan Yunis. In this context, the statements of Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz about expanding the operation’s area in the enclave and creating additional ‘security zones’ should also be considered.”

❗️”Thus, the territory where Gazans are forced to live is gradually shrinking.”

“This forces them to make a difficult choice – either stay in Gaza without water, electricity, and adequate food, hoping that the Israeli operation will eventually stop and they won’t become victims of the next airstrike, or leave the area. Of course, under these conditions, there can be no talk of any ‘voluntary emigration’ or evacuation.”

“We confirm our principled position on the inadmissibility of territorial or demographic changes in Gaza, which has been and remains an integral part of the Palestinian state.”

“We are convinced of the necessity of an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, the release of all arbitrarily detained persons, and the provision of safe and unhindered humanitarian access. At the same time, it is important that the agreements reached be sustainable.”

“As practice shows, without guarantees and control by the international community, any ceasefires can collapse in an instant. In this regard, the UN Security Council must play a key role in the negotiation process and in ensuring the enforcement of its outcomes by all parties.”

“We call on international mediators to make returning to a peaceful settlement their top priority.”

👉”In this context, we would like to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to the creation of an independent Palestinian state within the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital. It should coexist in peace and security with Israel in accordance with approved international legal decisions.”

Russia’s Hypocrisy

At a briefing on April 3, 2025, Russia’s official representative, Maria Zakharova, once again demonstrated her hypocritical stance on the Gaza situation, which casts doubt on Russia’s sincerity in seeking a peaceful resolution to the conflict. Zakharova stated that Russia “supports continuous dialogue with the Palestinian National Authority,” as well as with various Palestinian political movements and Israel. However, these words seem like an attempt to cover up Russia’s true aim – supporting radical forces that pose a threat not only to Israel but to the entire region.

Zakharova does not shy away from showing her clear support for terrorist organizations, as evidenced by her statement that Russia is “encouraging the parties to achieve a sustainable political solution to this long-standing world conflict.” In reality, Zakharova’s words are nothing more than empty promises, as her country continues to actively support Hamas and other terrorist groups that pose a threat to Israel’s security and to the peace of the population.

Russia’s Hypocrisy: Support for Terrorism

Zakharova, like her colleagues, continues to insist on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the release of all detainees, but her words contain no hint of condemnation of the terrorist acts committed by Palestinians. If Russia truly wanted to end the violence, it would stop supporting terrorists, but this is not happening.

“We insist on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the release of all detained persons,” Zakharova stated, but this statement, made in the context of Russia’s support for terrorist groups, only highlights her hypocrisy. Russia continues to assist Palestinian radicals, which in fact means supporting violence and aggression against Israel.

Support for Radicals and Undermining the Peace Process

Zakharova also stated that Russia is providing “active energetic support in achieving inter-Palestinian unity on the political platform of the Palestine Liberation Organization.” This essentially means that Russia actively supports ideas that lead to regional destabilization. Moscow’s actions contribute to strengthening Palestinian groups that stand in the way of peaceful resolution and even undermine the efforts of other world powers.

At the same time, Zakharova does not hide her commitment to the creation of an independent Palestinian state, which, given the current situation, looks extremely dangerous. Creating such a state based on terrorist organizations that threaten Israel’s security will only exacerbate the problems and lead to new waves of violence and fear.

Russia’s Double Standards

It is also worth recalling that on April 1, 2025, Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov condemned the U.S. ultimatums to Iran, saying that Russia is against aggression and military solutions. But where is the logic in these statements? Russia supports aggression in one region, while simultaneously condemning it in another. This double standard is part of a broader strategy by Russia to destabilize regions and strengthen its influence through violence.

Conclusion: Russia is an Obstacle to Peace

Thus, Zakharova’s statements about supporting the peaceful settlement of the Gaza conflict only highlight her hypocrisy and Russia’s complicity in supporting violence. Russia continues to actively interfere in the affairs of the Middle East, supporting terrorist organizations, making it the main obstacle to a peaceful resolution of the conflict.
