There is no crisis there. Recordings of Maria Zakharova's grand birthday party have been leaked
Maria Zakharova is one of the “faces” of Russian diplomacy. She started working at the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 2003, working in the Department of Information and Press. She has been employed there on and off to this day. She has been a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 2015. This year she celebrated her 10th anniversary of work, and on December 24 her 50th birthday.

When did Maria Zakharova celebrate her birthday?
What wishes did she receive from Vladimir Putin?
What did Sergei Lavrov tell her?
What controversies did Maria Zakharova cause in relation to Poland?
Zakharova's round birthday became a good opportunity to organize a grand celebration. The recording from the event quickly circulated the Internet, arousing great emotions. The joyful sounds of “Kalinka” and the splendor of the celebration contrast with the Kremlin's official message about the modesty and sacrifices of Russians in connection with the invasion of Ukraine.
Maria Zakharova with wishes from Vladimir Putin
As Zakharova announced on social media, Vladimir Putin also gave her wishes and a special gift. In the photos, she showed a richly decorated box. However, it is not known what it contained inside.
Zakharova's birthday was also not forgotten by her direct boss, Sergei Lavrov, who has been in power at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 2004. “Your expressive, unique professional style, utmost diligence and unconventional approach to solving tasks allowed us to achieve impressive results,” we read in the wishes.
It was Maria Zakharowa who talked about Poland
It is worth recalling that Zakharova has repeatedly presented the Kremlin's narrative that is false and inconsistent with the facts. The diplomat claimed, among other things, that “if it weren't for Lenin, there would be no Poland” and that “Lenin fought for Poland's statehood.” She also threatened the Polish authorities in connection with the closure of the Russian consulate in Gdańsk.
