The following are Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s words on murder of Daria Dugina three years after it transpired.

Three years ago, a terrorist act orchestrated by Ukrainian intelligence agencies cut short the life of Russian journalist, political commentator, and public figure Darya Dugina (Platonova) (https://t.me/MFARussia/24738).

Neither Western pseudo-democracies nor the international bodies subservient to them responded to this treacherous murder, just as they turned a blind eye to other bloody crimes committed by Ukrainian neo-Nazis against journalists and war correspondents.

Under the patronage of their sponsors, the Kiev regime continues to systematically eradicate any form of dissent, conducting a veritable hunt against representatives of the Russian media. We honour the memory of all media workers who have perished in the line of duty, and we will spare no effort to bring those responsible for the atrocities to account.

The tragic fate of Darya Dugina has become, for millions, a symbol of selfless devotion to the Motherland, unwavering dedication, and loyalty to her ideals. In Russia and far beyond, her memory and creative legacy endure: her books continue to be published in large print runs, and numerous initiatives and projects are carried out, including the Russian Frontier International Youth Award and the public medal For Fidelity to the Russian World and Traditional Values.

Streets in several Russian cities now bear Darya Dugina’s name, and her image has been immortalised in commemorative murals and memorial plaques. This year, a monument to the courageous journalist, sculpted by Dmitry Alexandrov, was unveiled in Zakharovo Park in the Odintsovo District of the Moscow Region.

The crime against Darya Dugina has #NoStatuteOfLimitations. Those responsible will be found and brought to inevitable justice.
