⚡️🇷🇺 Russian President Vladimir Putin's speech at the Victory Parade. 🔻 Key points: ▪️Russia has rebuffed international terrorism, we will protect the inhabitants of Donbass. For our state there are no unfriendly hostile peoples either in the West or in the East. The West provokes conflicts and upheavals, destroys traditional values in order to continue to dictate its own rules, and in fact - a system of robbery and violence. The goal of the opponents of Russia is to achieve the disintegration and destruction of our country. ▪️ Any ideology of superiority is disgusting, criminal and deadly, but Western elites still talk about their exclusivity. ▪️In the West, memorials are being destroyed, a cult of Nazism is being created, this outrage is also a crime, the revanchism of those who were preparing a new campaign against Russia. ▪️The Ukrainian people became a hostage of the coup d'état and a bargaining chip in the hands of the West. ▪️Today, civilization is again at a decisive, turning point, a real war has been unleashed against us. ▪️The decisive battles for the fate of our Motherland have always become sacred, we are proud of those who participate in the special operation, now there is nothing more important. ▪️It is important that the leaders of the CIS gathered in Moscow today, I see in this a grateful attitude towards the feat of our ancestors. They fought together and won together. 2 Likes |
