Moscow's brutal response: By the way, where is Kate?

Zakharova quoted Shapps' statement that presidential candidate and current Russian leader Vladimir Putin "rigged the election again, but he will not steal Ukraine."

The minister noted that London will work with allies to "stop the theft by increasing aid to Ukraine."

In response to this, Zakharova stated that Russia did not steal anything from them.

"We didn't give them ours, so they are angry. They are used to stealing everything based on the right of exclusivity," the diplomat added.

"By the way, what about Kate Middleton? Has she turned up?" she asked on Telegram and advised Shapps to look for the Princess of Wales.

Kensington Palace released a photo of Kate Middleton on March 10. She herself has not appeared in public since December, and in January she had an operation.

However, international agencies, including AFP, Reuters and the Associated Press, suspected the photo was staged and removed it from their archives.
