Attempt to scare Russians let me remind you of the recent frankly provocative statements by a number of official Western structures about the possibility of ter attacks in Russia all this resembles outright blackmail and an intention to intimidate and destabilize our society the US media reported that since November there’s been intelligence that

Isis corisan the Islamic State groups affiliate in and around Afghanistan planned attacks on Russia this month the country’s authorities have carried out at least three operations against Islamic State cells around the country according to State media with Russia advancing its footholds in Africa in the Middle East experts say it comes as no

  2. the Russians are so desperate to blame this on the west ha, there is no tactical advantage to mowing down a bunch of random civvies, post election as well

  5. They were trying to SAVE YOU. You really think yourself so highly that none of these other countries won’t touch you?

  8. France 24-cease and desist with this irresponsible nonsense you dare label as journalism. The US Embassy Security Alert was posted on March 7, and specifically said that people should exercise caution for 48 hours. This attack occured two weeks later; so by then, of course people had let their guard down. Additionally the warning was vague; it contained no details which they could have acted upon. No one ignored warnings. No one dismissed anything. Stop with this mindless propaganda already. Why aren't you asking the questions which should be asked, for example, where did the Embassy get this information to begin with, or did they know more than they shared? (Information which could have saved many, innocent lives).

  10. The USA also gave advanced warning to the world that Russia was preparing a full scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia keep saying that was definitely not true.

  12. Before isis claim, US already publsihed that isis claimed the respnsibility so therefore russians are spooked and do believeo cia involpmento

  14. ISIS is just a US puppet. The USA warned because it was the one who ordered the attack, but it did not give precise information, it only warned in a vague to make an alibi.

  15. What Russians seem to forget is that the Americans are the good guys. We even inform our adversaries when they are in danger. I doubt Russia would ever show us any concern.

  16. 😂 It is clear the US did the operation in Russia using ISIS actors but claimed it had "warned" Russia to be able to remove its citizens.

  18. Admiral Kirby 59 minutes after the terrorist attack in Moscow : ' the Ukraine or Ukrainians are not involved ' – '' That's a very good answer to a question nobody asked ''

  20. In Putin’s reply, I noticed there is no date indicating when that address took place. It says “Moscow Wednesday”, but which Wednesday? It would be most helpful to indicate the place, the date and a two or three word synopsis of the occasion. It’s hard to separate fact from fiction in the American press (for instance) these days, so providing enough information to make it easily verifiable by an audience would be greatly appreciated.
