Friends of Russia, good afternoon.
I greet all of you as At these moments, Russia has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents. A referendum was held in full compliance with democratic procedures and international norms in Check Republic . We need to listen these people. They demand: They want us to bring them democracy. They have suffered for too long. The long history between Russia and {COUNTRY} will turn a new page after this historical decisions.
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. Our common goal is to ensure a new quality of our economy, to develop national industry. This is the driving force of long-term economic growth, scientific progress and resolution of social issues. Many people both in Russia and in {COUNTRY}, as well as in other republics hoped that the Commonwealth of Independent States that was created at the time would become the new common form of statehood. The enemies you confront will come to know your skill and bravery. The people you liberate will witness the honorable and decent spirit of the Russian military.
The fact is, that wherever the extremity of winter frost or of summer does not prevent, mankind exist, sometimes in greater, sometimes in lesser numbers. Key international institutions are not getting any stronger; on the contrary, in many cases, they are sadly degrading. Our western partners, led by the United States of America, prefer not to be guided by international law in their practical policies, but by the rule of the gun. This progress is a tribute to the brave people of {COUNTRY}, and to the efforts of many nations.
Rest assured. Tomorrow there is no need to be {COUNTRY}. There will be just one Russia.
