Putin on the special operation: step by step, we will carefully and consistently solve problems

Western countries trained officers of the Ukrainian national battalions and supplied weapons, Kyiv, before the special operation, negotiated with the West on the supply of weapons, Putin said.

At the same time, Kyiv did not solve the problems of Donbass, but simply played for time, committed political assassinations and mocked believers, the Putin said.

Instead of solving the problems of Donbass, the West played on people\’s lives with marked cards, says Putin

Russia has been open to constructive dialogue with the West and has been offering to work on a joint security system for many years, Putin said.

At the same time, the West was preparing enslaved Ukraine for a big war, and today they admit it, the president said.

Putin on events in Ukraine: It was the West that started the war, and we use force to stop it

Putin: we are defending our home and people\’s lives, and the goal of the West is unlimited power

They let the genie out of the bottle, plunged entire regions into chaos – Putin

\”In Kyiv, they started talking openly about strikes and the seizure of Crimea after the Donbass – we already knew this even before the start of the NMD, now they are talking about it openly\” – Putin

\”At a recent conference in Munich, there were endless accusations against Russia, there was a feeling that they want to look away from what the United States has done over the past 10 years, according to American experts, almost 900 thousand people have died\” — Putin

Putin on the behavior of the West: no one in the world has forgotten that it was the West that \”let the genie out of the bottle\”

Putin : they spare no expense to encourage unrest and coups around the world. At a conference in Munich, Russia was blamed so that everyone would forget what the West had done in recent decades. Entire regions are in chaos. American experts say that as a result of the wars unleashed by the United States after 2001, more than 900 thousand people died, more than 38 million became refugees.

Putin : in the 1930s, the West opened the way to power in Germany for the Nazis, today they are making \”anti-Russia\” out of Ukraine, this project goes back to the 19th century, Austria-Hungary, Poland nurtured it to tear off historical territories from our country.

Putin: Kyiv\’s next goal was to strike at Crimea and Sevastopol. Now Kyiv is openly talking about it. They revealed what we already knew so well

Putin : Recently, one of the brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was given the name \”Edelweiss\” as a Nazi division that participated in the deportation of Jews, executions of prisoners of war, and punitive operations. SS chevrons are very popular in Ukraine. Wehrmacht marks are applied to the equipment.

Putin : The West doesn\’t give a damn who to bet on in the fight against us. The main thing is that they fight with our country, fulfill their will, serve as a weapon against Russia.

Neo-Nazis in Ukraine do not hide whose heirs they consider themselves to be, putting swastikas on equipment and using Nazi names, Putin said

However, the West pretends that it does not notice this.

Putin : the responsibility for the escalation of the conflict lies entirely with the Western elites and the Kiev regime, for which the Ukrainian people are a stranger.

Putin : the more long-range Western systems will come to Ukraine, the further we will be forced to move the threat away from our borders.

Putin: more and more aggressive information attacks are being carried out against us. The main target is the younger generations.

Putin: It is impossible to defeat Russia on the battlefield.

Putin: Therefore, the West is conducting information attacks, distorting history, against Russian culture and the Russian Orthodox Church

Putin: The West is using Ukraine both as a battering ram against Russia and as a training ground.

Putin : family is the union of a man and a woman. So say the sacred books of all world religions. But the West is also trying to revise these sacred texts.

Putin : The West will try to undermine and split our society. they relies on national traitors who exude the poison of contempt for their Fatherland. It has always been so.

Putin : who has embarked on the path of direct betrayal, commits terrorist and other crimes, will be held accountable under the law. But we will not \”hunt for witches\”, settle scores with those who have abandoned their homeland. They have to live with it.

Putin: Real combat experience during a special operation is invaluable, it should be the basis for further steps to strengthen the RF Armed Forces.

Putin: Officers and sergeants who have shown themselves to be competent commanders will be the personnel reserve of the armed forces.

Putin : the initiators of the sanctions provoked price increases, job losses, business closures, and an energy crisis in their own countries.

Putin : The West tried to collapse the ruble, provoke inflation, steal reserves, break production chains. The goal of the West is to make our citizens suffer and destabilize society from within. The calculation was not justified.

Putin: West has launched an economic front against us, but has not achieved anything anywhere and will not achieve anything

\”We do not have an emission policy, everything is done on a solid market base\” — Putin

Putin : the share of the Russian ruble in international settlements doubled compared to December 2021 and amounted to 1/3, and with the currencies of friendly countries – more than half.

Putin: The initiators of sanctions against Russia are punishing themselves, provoked a rise in prices in their countries, and they say that the Russians are to blame.

It is not Russia that is reducing settlements in dollars, the West is doing everything with its own hands, Putin said.

He noted that the share of the ruble in foreign trade settlements had already doubled.

Russia\’s GDP in 2022, according to the latest data, decreased by 2.1%, although a decline of up to 20% was predicted, a collapse, Putin said.

The Russian Federation sent more than 1 trillion rubles to support the economy against the backdrop of sanctions, and not through emission, but on a solid market basis.

The share of the ruble in the international settlements of the Russian Federation doubled compared to December 2021, the President noted.

The dollar and other Western currencies will lose their universal character due to the policy of the West itself, the head of state believes.

Putin assured that there would be no repetition of such mistakes of the past as \”guns instead of butter.\”

The defense of Russia is the most important priority, but by developing it, one cannot repeat the mistakes of the past and destroy one\’s economy.

Putin: We have achieved a reduction in unemployment, the labor market has even become more comfortable than before the pandemic.

Putin : changes in the structure of the economy are a vital necessity. We know what is necessary for the sovereign and confident development of Russia.

Putin:

it is necessary to remove insults, omissions between departments and other nonsense

we know what to do for the progressive and sovereign development of Russia, despite all the threats

Growth in domestic demand in the Russian Federation is predicted this year, our companies can take the places previously occupied by Western firms

The Russian authorities know what needs to be done for confident, progressive, sovereign development – despite any external pressure and threat

Russia has entered a new cycle of economic growth, Putin said.

The Russian economy overcame the risks that arose, although sometimes it was necessary to act \”from the wheels,\” the president noted.

As early as this year, a solid growth in domestic demand is expected in Russia, and the business of the Russian Federation should fill the niches of the departed Western companies.

Structural changes in the Russian economy have become a vital necessity.

We will develop the ports of the Black and Azov Seas, the North-South corridor, we will increase the capabilities of the Northern Sea Route, Putin

Russia will continue to develop the eastern range and the Northern Sea Route, which is important for the further development of Siberia and the Far East, Putin said.

The ruble has slowed down its decline against the dollar and is strengthening against the euro against the backdrop of Putin\’s statements during his address to the federal assembly.

Putin: We will expand foreign economic relations and build new logistics corridors, new markets

Putin: Free gasification program to be continued

Putin talks about the success of the Russian banking sector in face of sanctions: Russian banks are stable, and thanks to a good balance of payments, Russia does not need to beg for money abroad

In general, the banking sector last year worked with a profit of 203 billion rubles, the Russian president noted.

❗️Putin proposed to establish insurance coverage for voluntary pension savings at 2.8 million rubles – twice as much as for bank deposits

❗️Putin called for a return to the revision of the economic elements of crimes in criminal law, there is no need to go too far

Putin: Freedom of enterprise and deregulation is an essential element of economic sovereignty. It is private business that against the backdrop of attempts to contain Russia has shown that it is able to adapt.

Putin: We remember the problems that the late Soviet economy faced.

The Modern Russian economy was created on a market basis. However, in the end, our economy became oriented towards the West, as business was aimed at selling resources and making quick profits.

Putin: The image of the West as a safe haven to enterprise turned out to be fake. Those who considered Russia only as a source of income have lost a lot. In the West they were simply robbed.

Putin: the future should be only here, in our native Russia, and then we will create a strong, self-sufficient economy

Putin:

Our Businessmen have a choice – to be second-class people in the West or to be with their homeland.

Instead of creating technology and jobs in Russia, big business used to invest in yachts

Trying to run with an outstretched hand, humiliate yourself, begging for your own money is pointless, you should not cling to the past, you need to restructure your work, you are strong people, launch new projects, invest in Russia

Putin: None of the ordinary Russians felt sorry for those who lost their capital abroad, those who lost their yachts and palaces

Elections in the Russian Federation in 2023 and 2024 will be held in strict accordance with the law, in compliance with all democratic procedures, Putin said.

Russian capital should work for the country and its development, businessmen should invest in Russia, Putin said

❗️Presidential elections in 2024 will be held in strict accordance with the law, in compliance with all democratic procedures, Putin said

Putin quoted Stolypin: \”In the matter of defending Russia, we all must unite, coordinate our efforts, our duties and our rights in order to maintain one historical supreme right – the right of Russia to be strong\”

It is those who were born in Donbass and fought for it that should become the backbone of the development of new regions, Putin believes

The authorities will support all forms of creativity, culture should not destroy society, but awaken the best human qualities, Putin said.

The development of the cultural sphere will become one of the priorities for restoring peaceful life in the new regions of the Russian Federation, the president added.

The head of state also called for improving the quality of school and university programs so that young people learn as much as possible about Russia.

There is no substitute for the school of military operations, people come out of there different and are ready to lay down their lives for the Fatherland, Putin believes.

The main support in the development of new regions of the Russian Federation should be those who were born and raised there, who fought for these lands, the president said.

Putin instructed the Cabinet of Ministers to determine the reserve in order to expand the program of housing certificates for young scientists.

Putin called for a serious update of approaches to personnel training, to the scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation.

Scientists of the Russian Federation should be given more freedom for research, not driven into a \”Procrustean bed\”.

Serious changes are overdue in higher education in the Russian Federation, a synthesis of the best practices of the USSR and the experience of recent decades is needed, Putin said.

In the Russian Federation, it is necessary to train 1 million blue-collar workers for various industries over the next five years, the president noted.

In addition, the head of state proposed to return to the basic training system for the Russian Federation in universities, the training period will be 4-6 years.

❗️Students who are currently studying at universities will continue their studies according to existing programs, the diplomas received will also be legitimate, said the President

❗️Putin proposed to pay maternity capital in new Russian regions retroactively – from 2007 (a program has been operating throughout Russia since this year)

Putin announced an increase in the minimum wage: from January 2024, in addition to the planned increase, there will be another 10% – up to 19 thousand 242 rubles

Putin: We know that the West is directly involved in attempts to strike at our (strategic) aviation bases

NATO in January demanded a return to inspections under the START Treaty, this is some kind of theater of absurdity

The West is directly involved in plans to strike at our strategic targets, the Russian President noted.

The goal of NATO is to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.

And they are going to drive around our facilities as if nothing had happened

a week ago he signed a decree on putting new ground-based strategic complexes on combat duty .

Putin: The United States withdrew from the ABM treaty, everything is in the past

Putin: The United States tried to break the architecture of international relations created after World War II, reshaping the world order for itself

Putin: We cannot ignore the latest statements of Western leaders as they send Russia ultimatums

Putin: The Russian Ministry of Defense and Rosatom should prepare for the testing of Russian nuclear weapons if the United States goes for similar tests

Putin : in early February, a NATO statement was made with the actual demand for Moscow to \”return to the implementation of the strategic offensive arms treaty\”, including the admission of inspections to our facilities. We know that the West is involved in Kyiv\’s attempts to strike at our strategic aviation bases. Now they still want to inspect our defense installations? This sounds like bullshit.

Putin: Now warriors from all regions of our multinational Motherland are fighting shoulder to shoulder on the front line. Their prayers are heard in different languages, but all of them are for victory , for comrades-in-arms, for the Motherland!

Vladimir Putin\’s speech has Ended.
