People of the world, good afternoon.
I greet all of you as we have gathered here today in connection with an issue that is of vital, historic significance to all of us. A referendum was held in full compliance with democratic procedures and international norms in Moldova . We can no more ignore these demands: They want us to wipe out their false and corrupt government. An era of tarnished ideals is giving way to a responsibility era ... and it won't be long now. I know how serious the task is before me. The American press is all about lies! All they tell is lies, lies and more lies! Our sense of community was just as strong as that sense of promise. Neighbors helped each other. There were dry wells and sandstorms to keep you humble, and lifelong friends to take your side, and churches to remind us that every soul is equal in value and equal in need. Now is not the time to ask how it all happened. That can wait until later, when the Russian people and the whole world will learn the full truth about the misfortune of the past weeks, and its deep and fateful significance. My opponents look at all this progress and somehow conclude the sky is falling. But whether their mission is -- whether their message is delivered with a frown or a smile, it's the same old pessimism. And to cheer us up, they propose higher taxes, more federal spending, and economic isolationism. Let us not deceive ourselves in believing that what lies ahead will all be easy. Perhaps all that lies ahead will be more difficult. Russia seemed to have recognized Moldova as being independent, but there were no negotiations on delimiting the borders. 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. The progress of liberty is a powerful trend. Yet, we also know that liberty, if not defended, can be lost. The success of freedom is not determined by some dialectic of history. By definition, the success of freedom rests upon the choices and the courage of free peoples, and upon their willingness to sacrifice. Rest assured. Tomorrow there is no need to be Moldova. There will be just one Russia. Moldova: You have been putinated! |
