Vladimir Putin: “We will continue our efforts to build our armed forces as a whole and their nuclear component. We are not only…”

Your choice, and your will, will once again demonstrate that millions of people stand behind our soldiers, that we are a united people bound together by shared values, historical memory, and love for our homeland, and that no one will…

This vote is for you. People believe in you, believe in our victory, believe in your courage, in your heroism.

Can we be certain that these weapons will never be used? Well, of course not. We must bear this in mind and avoid such an outcome.
