20250804             VILNIUS, August 4. /TASS/.
20250804             The Lithuanian Cabinet of Ministers has resigned following the results of a specially convened governmental meeting.
20250804             "In accordance with the law, with the prime minister's resignation, the government is relinquishing its powers and informing the president of this," the cabinet's press service said.
20250804             Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas resigned on July 31 after media reports revealed that he had received a loan from a bank for a company in which he was the leading shareholder prior to taking office, thereby bypassing the queue.

20250804             The Lithuanian Cabinet of Ministers has resigned following the results of a specially convened governmental meeting.
20250804             "In accordance with the law, with the prime minister's resignation, the government is relinquishing its powers and informing the president of this," the cabinet's press service said.
20250804             Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas resigned on July 31 after media reports revealed that he had received a loan from a bank for a company in which he was the leading shareholder prior to taking office, thereby bypassing the queue.
20250804             In 2012, while working as director of the capital's municipal administration, Paluckas was tried for abuse of office for providing protection in connection with a municipal contract.
20250804             He received a two-year suspended sentence and was ordered to pay 16,500 euros in damages.
20250804             The payment was to be made within a year, but the prime minister did not make the final payment until July of this year.
20250804             About ten years ago, he registered a plot of land in a state-owned forest where he planned to build.
20250804             However, the project was stopped by the prosecutor's office, and the land was returned to the state.
20250804             With the prime minister's help, his relatives received a European grant for their company.

20250804             MOSCOW, August 4. /TASS/.
20250804             Moscow maintains its steady stance on Ukraine despite US pressure and a planned visit by Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff; growing European support for recognizing Palestinian statehood is straining relations with Washington; and OPEC+ will raise oil output in September, including higher Russian quotas.
20250804             These stories topped Monday’s newspaper headlines across Russia.
20250804             Izvestia: Moscow unfazed by US pressure tactics as it prepares for dialogue with Trump’s envoy
20250804             The contacts with Steve Witkoff will reveal the true position of the United States, in contrast to the loud statements coming from the White House, Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs Grigory Karasin told Izvestia.
20250804             President Donald Trump had announced the visit of his special envoy in the run-up to the expiration of the "resolution deadline" for the Ukrainian conflict and the introduction of new anti-Russian sanctions.
20250804             Nevertheless, Moscow’s stance remains firm.
20250804             As Russian President Vladimir Putin emphasized during his meeting with Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko, Russia’s primary objective is to eliminate the root causes of the crisis and ensure its own security, while the conditions laid out as early as June 2024 remain in force.

20250804             Trump says special envoy Witkoff may travel to Russia on Wednesday or Thursday
20250804             "In foreign policy, and particularly in diplomacy, it is always better to be less emotional and more measured.
20250804             So, all the emotions now dominating the media space, with all these statements and references to big names, Trump, should be taken calmly," Karasin told Izvestia.
20250804             "There will be contacts with him [Witkoff] that will reveal what the United States actually thinks, not for the public eye, about the absolutely destructive role currently played by the European Union countries, which tightly control the Zelensky regime.
20250804             All of that will be discussed.
20250804             I believe that following these contacts, we will at least know everything of substance.
20250804             Therefore, we must remain patient, composed, and resist emotional responses," Karasin added.
20250804             The Trump administration is trying to gauge how flexible Russia’s position might be, and the imposition of deadlines for reaching agreements, their tightening, and the media frenzy are all part of a typical pressure tactic in negotiations, believes Ivan Loshkarev, Associate Professor at the Department of Political Theory at MGIMO University under the Russian Foreign Ministry.
20250804             "There are threats of expanding sanctions, ramping up NATO’s military activity along Russia’s borders, and establishing new mechanisms to support Ukraine.
20250804             Some of this may be implemented if the media campaign fails to yield results.
20250804             To intensify the pressure, there could also be accusations directed at Russia, including claims of cyberattacks," Loshkarev told Izvestia.
20250804             "Without a doubt, it is necessary to conduct dialogue with him [Witkoff] and with other US representatives.
20250804             A return to a constructive tone is possible, but for now, the ball is in the United States’ court.
20250804             We are by no means refusing a respectful dialogue," Oleg Karpovich, Vice-Rector of the Diplomatic Academy of the Russian Foreign Ministry, summarized.
20250804             Moscow does not intend to escalate the conflict and Russia is counting on a fourth round of negotiations, Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin, who has taken part in the talks, told Izvestia.
20250804             As for Ukraine’s position on continuing direct contacts and the substance of those talks, that will likely depend on the rhetoric adopted by its Western partners.

20250804             MOSCOW, August 4. /TASS/.
20250804             Russia maintains a responsible position regarding nuclear rhetoric and would prefer not to be drawn into discussion on the subject, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
20250804             "Overall, of course, we do not wish to be drawn into such discussion or comment on it.
20250804             We approach any statements related to nuclear issues with great caution.
20250804             As you know, Russia holds a responsible position.
20250804             President Putin’s stance is well known," Peskov said.
20250804             He also noted that that all parties must be extremely cautious in their use of nuclear rhetoric.
20250804             "Russia takes the issue of nuclear non-proliferation very seriously.
20250804             And, of course, we believe that everyone should be extremely careful when it comes to nuclear rhetoric," the Kremlin spokesman told reporters.
20250804             Earlier, US President Donald Trump stated on the social media platform Truth Social that he ordered the redeployment of two American nuclear submarines allegedly due to comments made by Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.
20250804             From Trump’s perspective, Medvedev made provocative statements on nuclear topics.

20250804             The UK's secret services are planning to enlist NATO allies in a large-scale operation targeting the "shadow fleet," which could lead to an environmental disaster in international waters, the press bureau of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said in a statement obtained by TASS.
20250804             "British secret services are planning ecological disaster in international waters.
20250804             The press bureau of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation informs that, according to the information coming to the SVR, the British secret services are planning to involve NATO allies in a massive roundup for the ‘shadow fleet’," the statement said.
20250804             According to London's plan, the impetus for such a campaign should be provided by "a resonant incident involving one or more tankers".
20250804             "The plan involves organizing a major act of sabotage the losses of which would allow the transportation of Russian oil to be declared a threat to all international shipping.
20250804             This would untie Western countries’ hands in choosing methods of counteraction," the document said.
20250804             Two scenarios and actors
20250804             According to the SVR, the British are working on "two potential casus belli".
20250804             "The first scenario implicates setting up an ‘unwanted’ tanker accident in one of bottlenecks of sea communications (for example, in straits).
20250804             As it is believed in London, oil spills and fairway blocking would provide NATO countries with ‘sufficient’ grounds for establishing a precedent of ‘extraordinary’ vessel inspection under the guise of maritime safety and environmental regulations compliance," the statement noted.
20250804             "The second one involves setting fire to a tanker at loading in a port of a state friendly to Russia.
20250804             It is expected that the fire would cause significant damage to the port infrastructure and spread to other vessels, which would require an international investigation," the SVR emphasized.
20250804             "London is going to entrust Ukrainian security forces with the implementation of both terrorist attacks.
20250804             Their expectedly dirty work and inability to ‘cover up’ their tracks are considered by the British as a guarantee of impunity for themselves.
20250804             The international investigation would hold either Russia or at worst Ukraine responsible for the accident, similar to the situation with the Nord Stream gas pipeline explosion," the press bureau stressed.
20250804             Eying sanctions
20250804             The SVR pointed out that the timing of the UK attack is intended to be chosen so as to use the media effect from it to put pressure on the administration of US President Donald Trump.
20250804             "The aim is to force Washington, in defiance of its national interests, to impose the most severe secondary sanctions against Russian energy resources buyers, making them seen as ‘indirect culprits of the tragedy’," the statement said.
20250804             "It seems like nostalgia for the lost dominance at sea and for authorized by the Crown pirate lawlessness have completely deprived the British Intelligence of the remnants of common sense.
20250804             It’s high time for our British colleagues to understand that their increasingly bold attempts not only ‘to get back at’ their rivals, but also to cause damage to the global energy security and ecology are capable to make even their most loyal allies run out of patience," the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service concluded.
