The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, ironically compared the US statement on the reduction of military aid to Ukraine with the children’s game “Magpie-White-Sided”. The diplomat wrote this in his book telegram channel.
He recalled remarks by White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre that Ukraine would begin receiving smaller packages of military equipment from the Pentagon’s inventory to extend support “for as long as possible.”
“This is reminiscent of the children’s game ‘The white-sided magpie cooks porridge and feeds the children: he gave to this, he gave to this, but he did not give to that,’” Zakharova said.
A representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry at the end of October requested From UN objectivity. This is how Zakharova commented on the statement of the representative of the world organization Stephane Dujarric condemning the actions of those who rioted at Makhachkala airport. The diplomat noted his “incredible selectivity” and “fantastic hypocrisy”.
Previously Zakharova appreciated US comparison of Makhachkala riots with Jewish pogroms.
