President Vladimir Putin, concluding his address to the Federal Assembly, said that he believes in “our victories, successes, in the future of Russia.” He also addressed the SVO soldiers with the words “bow to you, guys.” This presidential message was the longest in history. It rained for 2 hours and 6 minutes. Vladimir Putin’s speech was interrupted by applause more than 80 times.

“The implementation of all planned plans today directly depends on our soldiers, officers, volunteers, all military personnel who are now fighting at the front. From the courage and determination of our comrades in arms who defend the Motherland, rise to attack, go forward under fire, sacrifice themselves for us, for the sake of the Fatherland. It is they – our soldiers – who are creating today the absolutely necessary conditions for the future of the country and its development. Low bow to you guys. I thank all of you, dear colleagues, I thank all citizens of Russia for your solidarity and reliability. We are one big family. We are together, and therefore we will do everything as we plan and want to do. How we dream. I believe in our victories, in our successes, in the future of Russia,” the president said in conclusion.
