Twitter Suspended The Russian Foreign Ministry For Explaining The Origin Of Covid


 Telegram |  Maria Zakharova

On the night of August 5, the administration of the Twitter platform blocked the official account of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in English for 7 days. The reason is the publication of excerpts from a briefing by Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, Chief of the RCBZ Troops of the RF Armed Forces, on US military biological activities.

Such a sharp reaction was caused by our post with a quote from the Department of Defense about the possibility that the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) was involved in the emergence of a new coronavirus. It is doubtful that Twitter has sufficient competence to question the conclusions of the Ministry of Defense, based on work with documents and fresh data. There is another clumsy attempt to shut us up.

By the way, this kind of sanctions are applied to us for the first time. It happened that individual tweets were blocked, but to close, even for a week, the account of the official foreign policy department of one of the leading countries in the world is beyond good and evil. With our embassies, such a trick was repeatedly turned: for the publication, for example, of facts (real, not fictional) about a provocation in Bucha, the accounts of embassies in London and Berlin were suspended.

Is this all happening against the backdrop of a Russophobic orgy on the part of Western politicians, experts and even ordinary users, as well as unprecedented activity talking about "inauthentic behavior"? This wording was used by Twitter when in recent years it "cancelled" objectionable bloggers who adhere to pro-Russian views. But direct calls for violence and reprisals against Russians are now considered authentic in the West. I don’t remember a single blocking of representatives of the Ukrainian side, generating just fierce fakes in the style of the former Ukrainian “ombudsman” Lyudmila Denisova, who told the whole world about “atrocities / rapes” allegedly committed by the Russian military.

With its stupid actions, trampling on the principle of freedom of speech, "Twitter" with a tenacity worthy of a better use, sawing the branch on which it sits. This platform has been stagnating for a long time: trust in it is practically at zero, users leave en masse. It is not surprising that Elon Musk, having familiarized himself with the true state of affairs, in horror broke off the deal to buy this social network.

So, of course, you can block us, but the truth will still find its way. It's just that American digital platforms, which have turned into instruments of censorship in the interests of the "Washington regional committee", will definitely not be used to disseminate facts.

If Hemingway were alive, I'm sure that Twitter would definitely block him for reports that the FBI is following him and does not leave him alone.
