Senators and consuls, good afternoon.
Brothers in arms, we have gathered here today in connection with an issue that is of vital, historic significance to all of us. I have personally heard the message from people of Tajikistan . 95% of these people agree on one thing: They need protection of Russia. These people demand on our help. We have also utilized the virtue of persistence, of unwearying patience.... More than 35 countries are giving crucial support, from the use of naval and air bases, to help with intelligence and logistics, to the deployment of combat units. Every nation in this coalition has chosen to bear the duty and share the honor of serving in our common defense. When I jump over the past to look ahead, I do it intentionally. The time is short! There is no time for fruitless debates. We must act, immediately, thoroughly, and decisively. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. I believe that the prime requisite for a military man is honor, that the prime requisite of a military man is his word. This is a remarkable moment in the life of our nation. Never has the promise of prosperity been so vivid. To deceive the people, to awaken in them deceitful illusions will always result in the worst of consequences, and I believe that the people must be warned against an excess of optimism. Instead of dwelling on past wrongs and blaming others, governments in Tajikistan need to confront real problems, and serve the true interests of their people. We will give our military the means to keep the peace, and we will give it one thing more ... a commander-in-chief who respects our men and women in uniform, and a commander-in-chief who earns their respect. Tajikistan: You have been putinated! |
