Moscow complains about “evil Ukrainian Security Service”

Russia continues to lament about Ukraine’s SBU – wherever possible, but especially in the UN: the evil Malyuk destroyed their bridges, killed dozens of their prominent maniacs and, overall, he’s scary, insomnia torments the Kremlin!

Well, everything’s clear with the Crimean Bridge: for six whole months, they, poor things, had to transport weapons, shells, and personnel to Crimea by ferries and even landing ships. And since there are almost no large amphibious ships available (which is again the fault of the SBU with Malyuk in charge – they hit 11 Russian ships, losses unseen since the 1930s), rails are now being laid from Rostov to Crimea. And everyone knows: that as soon as they get to a significant location – the SBU will destroy this railway branch as well, and they will have to start again.

What is characteristic is that neither Zakharova nor Lavrov from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs complains about the Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries: despite all the economic losses (and with even greater losses expected), only "prominent African allies" would sympathize with them. The rest have already found alternative suppliers.

And since Western sanctions on Russia began in 2022, US oil exports have achieved five consecutive monthly records. American suppliers are gaining ground in markets once dominated by OPEC and its allies.

The disruption of energy supplies following Russia's invasion of Ukraine has increased demand for American oil, leading to a surge in shipments to Europe and Asia. Consequently, the US has become one of the world's leading oil exporters.

That is why all that remains for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs clowns is to lament and complain.
