A spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zaharova.

In a post on Tuesday on Telegram the Russian official criticizes Finnish Foreign Minister’s statements Elina Valtonen, That Moscow violated the principles of the Helsinki Agreement on International Relations, describing them as ‘Overwhelmed lie’, And he replies that, on the other hand, there are 10 examples that the OSCE Member States violate the treaty itself.

In this context, it takes the part of Ankara and Skopje, both in the Cyprus issue (not even referring to the words “Turkey” and “Attilas”) and the name issue.

The post of Maria Sakharova’s

“Finland Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen: “Russia’s actions violate each of the ten authorities of Helsinki. The same principles that helped develop fifty years ago.”

An overt lie, a lie in which everyone is used to. However, Valtonen is right: the Helsinki authorities half a century ago are actually violated. And they are violated by those who signed them – the Member States of the OSCE.

Here are just a few of the many examples.

Principle I. Sovereign equality, respect for the rights that are inherent in sovereignty: 1974. The intervention of the junta of black colonels in Greece in the transnational conflict in Cyprus, an attempt to attach the island to Greece.

Authority II. Non -use of violence or threat of violence: 1999. NATO bombing without UN command.

Principle III. Border Interior: 2008. Recognition of Kosovo’s independence from Western countries without Serbia’s consent.

Principle IV. Territorial integrity of states: 1991-1992. The recognition of Slovenia and Croatia’s independence from Germany at the height of the ethnic conflict in Yugoslavia, accelerating the dissolution of the South Slavic state.

Authority V. Peaceful Dispute Resolution: 1995. Business Storm: Despite OSCE mediation efforts in the ethnic conflict between Croatia and the Republic of Serbian Kranina, Zagreb rejected a peaceful resolution and fled to ethnic cleansing.

Principle VI. Non -intervention in internal affairs: 2014. Maidan protests with western guidance and support for the coup in Ukraine.

Principle VII. Respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, including freedom of thought, consciousness, religion and beliefs: 2000s. The operation of CIA secret prisons in Lithuania, Poland and Romania.

Principle VIII. Equal rights and self -determination of the peoples: 1991. The French Constitutional Council denied the Corsicans the right to a separate national identity and banned the phrase “people of Corsica”.

Principle IX. Cooperation between States: By 2018, Greece blocked international initiatives aimed at working with the Republic of Macedonia (due to a unresolved difference for the name).

Authority X. Fulfillment of obligations under international law in good faith: from 1965 to 2024. The contempt for its international legal obligations by Britain and the occupation of the island of Tsagos (Mauritius) in the Indian Ocean.

PS As you may be guessing, Elina is never, and she was never a diplomat, neither from a diplomacy degree nor from her work experience. He is a technologist, city manager, financier – but he is not an international relations specialist. Western Europe does not need professionals in leadership positions. Everyone understands the EU’s position in the global system, controlled by gynecologist Ursula. “
