The deputy chairman of the Council of People’s Commissars of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev recorded the New Year appeal to the Russians, in which he stated that the outgoing year became dramatic and turning point, and noted that the coming year would not be easy.
“Russia’s enemies will continue to try to break it, subordinate it to their will. But they will not succeed. We became stronger, because we are together, it’s true, but the truth is victory,” said the deputy chairman of the Security Council, emphasizing, that “victory will be behind us.”
