Today, in the course of the special military operation, the defenders of the Fatherland, following the tradition of a generation of winners, honourably perform their military duty: they selflessly fight against neo-Nazis, accomplish their assigned tasks, and ensure the sovereignty and security of the Russian Federation.
Comrades!
I congratulate you, your families on the national holiday - the Victory Day! I wish you good health, happiness, and further success for the benefit of the Fatherland!
To mark the 80th Anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet People in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945, I HEREBY ORDER:
