🇩🇪🤝🇺🇸 — Germany says that it is lighting up the Brandenburg Gate in honor of 250 years of American independence.

🇷🇺🤝🇺🇸 — The Russian Embassy in USA celebrates the 250th Years of American Independence, noting the historical bonds between America and Russia since its imperial times:

🇷🇺🇺🇸 Happy 250 Anniversary, America!

🔹Since the birth of this nation on the 4th of July, 1776 Russia stood together being not only sympathetic to the Americans fighting for their freedom, but also instrumental in supporting former 13 colonies in the War for Independence against the British Empire, as Empress Catherine the Great categorically refused to observe the naval blockade and provide 20 thousand troops at London’s request.

🔹At another critical crossroads of the US history during the Civil War Russia resisted the British and French attempts to legitimize the Confederacy sending in 1863 two naval squadrons to American waters as a powerful deterrent to foreign meddling.

🔹Expressing support to President Abraham Lincoln, the then Russian Chancellor Alexander Gorchakov stated: “Russia’s policy toward the United States is defined and will not change. Above all, we wish to keep the American Union as an undivided nation”.

🔹There were such best days in our countries’ relations as comradeship-in-arms during World War II, despite prolonged policy of non-recognition (until 1933) of the Soviet Union preceded by the US military intervention in revolutionary Russia. But even in worst years of the Cold War Moscow and Washington, realizing their responsibility for world’s peace and security, did find ways to avoid confrontation.

🔹Nowadays, in the absence of principled ideological divides, while both our countries, led by leaders who have excellent personal chemistry, champion traditional values of family and religion, sovereignty and nation-state, as opposed to liberal-globalist “rules based order” that dominates modern Europe, Russia and the US could and should coexist constructively building on true, economically viable, mutually respectful and equal partnership.

I have congratulated President Trump and all Americans on the Independence Day.

We’ve had a very good phone call.

We are grateful to the United States for all the assistance we have received – from Javelins and Patriots to political support – and we deeply value that America stands by us in defending our independence.

I am grateful to every American heart that cares about the future of Ukraine, Europe, and everyone around the world for whom freedom matters. Of course, President Trump and I discussed the current situation on the frontline as well as our diplomatic efforts.

There is a real prospect to put an end to this war, and America’s resolve is decisive. We have agreed to continue these discussions during the NATO Summit in Ankara.

Thank you, the United States!
Thank you, Mr. President! Happy Fourth of July!
Wishing Americans continued prosperity and every success.

"In Philadelphia, our Founding Fathers summoned the courage of giants and the wisdom of centuries to boldly proclaim these timeless truths.

They declared that 'all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.'

In signing their names to the roster of freedom, those 56 Patriots put everything at risk, stepped onto the stage of destiny, and seized a victory for the ages."
