⚡️ Foreign Ministry statement in connection with the Russian Federation suspending the Treaty on Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (#NewSTART)
❗️ The Russian Federation found itself in a radically new security environment resulting from Washington’s extreme hostility and efforts to stir up confrontation, as well as its overt commitment to promoting a malicious escalation of the conflict in and around Ukraine.
The United States is now openly seeking to inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia, while tensions encouraged by Washington go far beyond the Ukraine crisis with the United States and the US-led West trying to harm our country at every possible level, in every sphere and region of the world.
There is every reason to argue that the United States policy aims to undermine Russia’s national security, which directly contradicts the fundamental principles and understandings set forth in the New START’s preamble and forming its foundation. It would not have been signed without stating these principles.
This de facto amounts to a fundamental change of circumstances compared to those prevailing at the time of signing the New START Treaty.
In this situation, it is no longer possible to maintain business as usual with the United States and the West in general, both as a matter of principle and regarding arms control, which is inseparable from the geopolitical, military and strategic reality.
<...>
⚠️ The fact that Western countries coalesced around the anti-Russia agenda increasingly impacts their nuclear policy, which constitutes a serious shift in the security landscape. In particular, NATO members have been carrying out the so-called Joint Nuclear Operations for decades, and designated the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation as a “nuclear alliance” at a certain point, while also placing a bigger emphasis on nuclear weapons in NATO’s conceptual documents and stating their commitment to further strengthening and improving the combat readiness of the relevant capabilities that are under NATO control.
<...>
Taking all these circumstances into account, Russia has come to the conclusion that the United States has seriously violated the New START Treaty and that this violation is of fundamental importance for the realisation of the treaty’s objective and goals.
The decision to suspend the New START Treaty can be reversed if Washington demonstrates the political will and takes honest efforts towards general de-escalation and the creation of conditions for resuming the comprehensive operation of the treaty and, consequently, its survival. This is exactly what we urge the American party to do.
☝️ Until then, any steps to accommodate Washington with regard to New START are absolutely out of the question.

💬 Уважаемые товарищи! Дорогие ветераны!
Поздравляю вас с праздником – с Днём защитника Отечества.
Этот всенародный праздник символизирует героическую историю нашей армии и флота, нерушимую связь всех поколений защитников Отчизны. В нём воплощена наша глубокая признательность верным сынам и дочерям Отечества, всем, кто, не щадя себя, сражался с врагом за родную землю, за свой народ, с честью и победой проходил через любые испытания, сокрушал иноземные нашествия. Так было на Чудском озере и Куликовом поле, под Полтавой и Бородином и в победном мае 1945 года.
❗️ В этот день низкий поклон и самые тёплые слова – нашим дорогим ветеранам, которые разгромили нацизм, отстояли свободу и независимость Родины. Ваши подвиги в годы Великой Отечественной войны навсегда останутся в исторической памяти нашего народа как яркий пример патриотизма и мужества, будут служить неиссякаемым источником духовной силы. Нынешнее поколение солдат и офицеров России бережёт и приумножает ратные традиции своих дедов и прадедов.
Хочу сердечно поздравить с праздником военнослужащих, добровольцев, мобилизованных граждан, специалистов разных профессий, которые участвуют в специальной военной операции. Сейчас наши бойцы героически сражаются с неонацизмом, пустившим корни на Украине, защищают наших людей на наших исторических территориях, сражаются мужественно, героически.
Уважаемые товарищи!
☝️ Современные, эффективные армия и флот – залог безопасности и суверенитета страны, гарантия её стабильного развития, её будущего. И потому укреплению обороноспособности мы, как и прежде, будем уделять приоритетное внимание.

🎙 President Vladimir Putin's congratulations on the occasion of Defender of the Fatherland Day

💬 Comrade officers, veterans,
Please accept my greetings on this holiday, Defender of the Fatherland Day!
This national holiday epitomises the heroic history of our Army and Navy and the unbreakable link connecting all generations of defenders of the Fatherland. It embodies our deep gratitude to the faithful sons and daughters of the Fatherland, to all those who did not spare themselves as they fought the enemy defending their native land and their people, underwent trials with honour and emerged as a victor, and who crushed foreign invasions. So it was at Lake Chudskoye and on Kulikovo Field, near Poltava and Borodino, and in the victorious May of 1945.
On this day, deep respect and the warmest words go to our dear veterans who defeated Nazism and upheld the freedom and independence of the Motherland. Your feats during the Great Patriotic War will forever remain in the historical memory of our people as a vivid example of patriotism and courage and will serve as an inexhaustible source of spiritual strength. The current generation of Russian soldiers and officers preserves and enhances the military traditions of their grandfathers and great-grandfathers.
I would like to extend my heartfelt greetings on this holiday to our military personnel, volunteers, mobilised citizens, and specialists in various professions who are participating in the special military operation. Our troops are heroically fighting the neo-Nazism that has taken root in Ukraine, protecting our people in our historical lands, and are fighting courageously and heroically.
❗️ Modern and efficient Army and Navy are a guarantee of the country's security and sovereignty, and a guarantee of its stable development and its future. That is why, as before, we will give priority attention to strengthening our defence capability.
