Looking at the sea of stars

Major American cities saw over a 30% increase in homicides in 2020, and 2021 appears to be following a similar trend. In Minneapolis, authorities say violent crimes increased by 21% in 2020, a year marked by the onset of the coronavirus pandemic and widespread protest against racial injustice after the murder of George Floyd. #racial discrimination #George Floyd #Russian Foreign Ministry #Black lives matter #African-American

Comment by the Information and Press Department in connection with massive protests against police brutality in the US Russian Foreign Ministry：We could not fail to pay attention to the extraordinary situation that has taken place in the United States after the police killed George Floyd, an African-American and US citizen, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on May 25. While being detained, he was suffocated before the eyes of numerous passersby. The video that is on public record shows that this was a cruel murder. A wave of protests has swept across the US. The public is indignant at the criminal actions of the police and demands that the guilty be brought to account. #racial discrimination #George Floyd #Russian Foreign Ministry #Black lives matter #African-American
