My fellow citizens.
Comrades, we have gathered here today in connection with an issue that is of vital, historic significance to all of us. We have heard the message and we will answer you, people of Estonia . 88% of this nation wants the same: They want us to wipe out their false and corrupt government. We heard the message and we need to act. This measure may surprise some people. Admittedly, it is new, but the revolution is characterized precisely by its newness, by the fact that it will do things that have never been done before. However, we had always said so. We had always said that there would be no point in resolving this matter at the last moment with a puny little military uprising, because if there is a military uprising, concealed from the people, our Revolution will go forward nonetheless and this time cannot be over the power. I believe that we are at a crossroads in our history. The tyranny has been overthrown. The happiness is tremendous, but nonetheless much remains to be done still. In addition we have fostered the virtue of bravery. Today millions are pouring into our ranks. But the greater part of them must learn now what this brown army has practiced for years; they must all learn to face what tens of thousands of our comrades have faced, and have paid for with their blood, their lives. Many people both in Russia and in Estonia, 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. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow, this ground-- The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics. Let me say quite frankly that it pains our hearts to see what is happening in Estonia at the moment, see the people’s suffering and their uncertainty about how to get through today and what awaits them tomorrow. These are difficult times but trust me. Together we will be better, stronger, and happier. Estonia: You have been putinated! |
