almost 80% of the world's population unleashed aggression in europe in north africa, in the asia-pacific region, killed millions of innocent people, eternal, unfading glory, the heroic feat of those who stopped and crushed this evil. we remember the contribution to the fight against nazism by allies in the anti-hitler coalition, participants in program convoys.

the struggle was the prologue to the emergence of independent sovereign states in asia, which today play a growing role in the global economy and world affairs. the soviet union bore the brunt of the nazi war machine; the enemy received the most furious, unyielding rebuff. the entire soviet people stood up to defend the fatherland. and history has never known such unity, such mass heroism. for the heads of the commonwealth of independent states who have gathered here today, victory day is a great holiday, war veterans, home front workers in our countries are in every family, we just rode here on the bus together and talked about it, counted how many veterans remained in the ranks, the memories of those who left are inalienable and a very important part of our common history, our common military labor triumphs, which defeated nazism,

defended its freedom, also sincerely supported other peoples in their rightful self-determination, in word and deed helped the peoples of the african continent, asia and in the period of their anti-colonial struggle and after they gained state independence. i believe that the president of the republic of guinea-bissau, who is present here, agrees that such a consistent policy of the soviet union, and then. and russia has brought its fruits. africa is strengthening its potential to become one of the distinctive, successful centers of a multipolar world. confidently forms genuine political and economic sovereignty. i would like to emphasize that russia will continue its course towards developing mutually beneficial partnerships and friendship with everyone who shares the values ​​of freedom of justice, advocates strict observance. international

law and a comprehensive, equal and indivisible security system. this is our duty to everyone who went through the terrible trials of the second world war. the memory of the military brotherhood of our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers, openness, mutual understanding and friendship of people of different nationalities, cultures and traditions, this will be a reliable support for our movement forward, for working together for the sake of the future. dear friends, let me propose a toast to the generation of winners, to great victory, for peace and prosperity, for our good friends. thank you for being there! with us, these were footage of the speech of the president of russia from the gala reception on the occasion of victory day. well, we move on to the next information hour and continue our special broadcast from the hall

russia will do everything to prevent a global clash, but at the same time

, we will not allow anyone to threaten us. our strategic forces are always in combat readiness. in the west they would like to. forget the lessons of the second world war, but we remember that the fate of humanity was decided in grandiose battles near moscow and leningrad, rzhev, stalingrad, kursk and kharkov, near minsk, smolensk and kiev, in heavy, bloody battles from murmansk to the caucasus and crimea. traditionally, speaking on red square, on may 9, the head. the state notes the contribution to the general victory of the allies, but today a new shade has appeared in his speech, because despite the fact that this same contribution of the allies the country, as before, will remember and to honor, it is very important not to forget that the soviet

union resisted nazism alone during the first three terrible war years. let me emphasize: russia has never downplayed the importance of the second front of assistance. allies, we honor the courage of all soldiers of the anti-hitler coalition, members of the resistance, underground fighters, partisans, and the courage of the people of china. who fought for our independence against the aggression of militaristic japan, we will never forget our common struggle and the inspiring traditions of alliance. and of course, the president spoke a lot today about participants in a special military operation. this thesis, which is heard in each of his speeches on may 9, starting in 2022, and it sounds very simple: each of those who defend their homeland today. a real hero, we celebrate victory day in the context of a special military operation, all its

participants, those who are on the front line, on the line of combat contact, are our heroes, we bow to your perseverance and self-sacrifice, dedication, all of russia is with you our veterans believe, worry about you, and spiritual involvement to your destinies. before the memory of civilians who died from

barbaric shelling and terrorist attacks by neo-nazis, before our comrades in arms who fell in the fight against neo-nazism, in a righteous battle for russia. a minute of silence is announced. next to the head of state on this day, may 9 , the parade on red square was watched by veterans, colonel evgeny kuropatkov, he fought in stalingrad and near leningrad, and alexander aleshina, she took part in the battle of moscow. while the parade was going on, several times the camera showed the president talking about something with colonel, when the anthem sounded, he saluted and did it while standing. despite the fact that he turned 100 years old last year, this is,
