Maria Vladimirovna Zakharova. (№ 368951)

I would like to remind the Ambassador that Russia throughout its long history repeatedly faced with similar threats, which were given for the recommendation. And, indeed, repeatedly proved their ineptitude... But unfortunately, the language of threats has become a hallmark of the American foreign Ministry. I suggest just good to learn the story, to avoid unforgivable for a diplomat of mistakes...
Let's have a little lesson in Russian history for the Ambassador. Here are a few examples. All know the consequences of the Polish - Lithuanian intervention in the early 17th century. For two years the army had managed to occupy Moscow, but the second people's militia in 1612 liberated Moscow from the invaders. To commemorate this event, we happened traditionally celebrate the Day of National Unity on 4 November.
In the early 18th century the Swedish king Charles XII invaded Russia. This company ended, the statements of historians:" the shame and stigma of the Swedes". When more than twenty-two thousand prisoners, there were Swedes, Finns, Germans and others, "the Lord." They were carried through the streets of our capital, during the Victory parade. The Swedish army was defeated in the battle of Poltava to Peter the great's move on.
The Russian army not a little success, managed to cool the Imperial ambitions of Napoleon during the Patriotic war of 1812, the war ended with the complete liquidation of the so-called great army, the liberation of our territory from invaders and Russian forces ' entry into Paris. The victory of the Russian weapons has left a deep mark not only in European history but also in the cultural withdrawal of the French people. Here, for example in their language there is a word Berezina - which is widely used in their everyday speech as a synonym for Complete failure. It appeared not casually, and in connection with the defeat of the Napoleonic forces, forces in November 1812 in the same locality. The river is now known to all.
Well, I think, quite symbolic that the American Ambassador made a statement at the end of April. Because, at the beginning of may we have another good tradition, namely, the ninth number, May 9, we will celebrate the Victory Day in the great Patriotic war in 1941-45 years. Let me remind you, the Soviet Union played a decisive role in the defeat of Nazi-Hitler coalition. It was the anti-fascist war, liberation, already on a global scale.
Maybe the Ambassador wants to we have some other holiday that we want to celebrate... to be honest, we still had no plans...
Quote Explanation: commenting on the words threatened Russia aircraft carriers, the us Ambassador Jon Huntsman, carriers each of which is a "one hundred thousand tons of international diplomacy." Habit to measure diplomacy in tons originates from one of the slogans of the builders of the American Nimitz class aircraft carriers – large even for this class of naval vessels (two representatives of this family just defile in the grouping of NATO in the Mediterranean sea – USS Abraham Lincoln and USS John C. Stennis). All carriers of this type have a displacement of about 100 000 tonnes, for which he received from the developers of the dashing nickname "100,000 tons of diplomacy." With time, this phrase has become a meme, which is used for example for printing on t-shirts.
