New Year’s speech
“Confident that everything will be fine”: Putin praises Russia and its soldiers
Russian President Vladimir Putin spread optimism in a very short New Year’s speech. He particularly praised the Russian soldiers: as “true heroes.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin called on the population to unite in his New Year’s speech. “And now, on the threshold of the New Year, we are thinking about the future. We are confident that everything will be fine and we will only move forward. We are sure that the fate of Russia, the well-being of its citizens, for us this The most important thing was, is and will be,” Putin said in his New Year’s speech. In the first quarter of the 21st century, Russia strengthened its unity, achieved important goals and overcome difficulties.
Putin paid tribute to the Russian soldiers fighting in the war in Ukraine, calling them “true heroes who made such enormous efforts.” They would protect Russia and ensure security and a stable peace for the Russian people. However, he did not go into detail about the status of the conflict or make any predictions about how the situation on the battlefield will develop in 2025.

Vladimir Putin gives a short New Year’s speech
Putin’s New Year’s speech, which was only three and a half minutes long, was broadcast first in the Russian Far East. The largest country in the world spans eleven time zones. On the Kamchatka Peninsula in the far east, the New Year begins nine hours before the capital Moscow, while Kaliningrad (Königsberg) on the Baltic Sea only celebrates New Year’s Eve an hour after Moscow.
