People have made their choice, unambiguous choice - Putin

There is no Soviet Union, the past cannot be returned, and modern Russia does not need this, we are not striving for this - Putin

People living in the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye become our citizens. Forever and ever! — Putin

We call on Kyiv to negotiate, but we will not discuss the choice of the people, it has been made, Russia will not betray the people - Putin

We call on Kyiv to immediately cease fire and the war it unleashed back in 2014 - Putin

We will protect our land by all means. We will rebuild all the destroyed cities and towns. We will develop enterprises, infrastructure, and healthcare systems - Putin

The West wants to see us as a colony, a crowd of soulless slaves. For them, a direct threat is our philosophy, that's why they encroach on our philosophers - Putin

Putin called the "rules-based order" proposed by the West "nonsense"

Western elites have always been and remain colonizers - Putin

Sanctions are not enough for the Anglo-Saxons, they switched to sabotage, and actually started destroying the pan-European infrastructure - Putin on a state of emergency with Nord Streams

Putin: “I want the Kyiv authorities and their real masters in the West to hear me so that everyone remembers this: people in Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporozhye and Kherson become our citizens. Forever and ever".

Putin: The West denies moral standards, religion, and family. Do we really want Russia to have “parent number one, two, three” instead of “mom and dad” and that perversions that lead to degradation and extinction are imposed on children in schools, supposedly there are some genders, except for women and men. For us, this is unacceptable.

Putin: we have many like-minded people all over the world, and we see their support. A liberation movement against unipolar hegemony is developing all over the world. Today we are fighting to make dictatorship and despotism forever a thing of the past. A policy built on the exclusivity of someone and the suppression of other cultures and peoples is criminal. We must turn this shameful page. The collapse of Western hegemony that has begun is irreversible. It won't be like before.

Putin: The battlefield is for our people, for great historical Russia. We need the consolidation of the whole society. Our values are humanity, mercy and compassion. As Ilyin said, "I believe in the spiritual forces of the Russian people, their spirit is my spirit, their fate is my fate, their suffering is my sorrow, their flourishing is my joy."
