🇷🇺 The necessity of improving state policy to protect traditional spiritual and moral values, strengthening societal cohesion, and preserving the historical memory of the Great Patriotic War became the main topics of the meeting of the Russian Security Council, chaired by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Key statements by the President of Russia:

🟢 It is necessary to improve the legislative framework for the protection of traditional values: "It is important for us to cherish and strengthen the cohesion of society, to support initiatives by citizens, public, religious, and volunteer associations aimed at this."

🟢 The topic of protecting traditional spiritual and moral values is "extremely significant." Among Russia's core values are "unity, commitment to truth, mercy, and family."

🟢 It is necessary to combat the imposition on Russians of attitudes that destroy traditional values: "By depriving peoples of their value foundation, by depriving them of their sovereignty, it is easier to subjugate them, to turn them into vassals. Therefore, it is important to counter attempts to impose attitudes on our citizens, especially young people, that destroy our values."

🟢 A generation is growing up in Russia that knows what freedom and responsibility are and does not separate its fate from that of the country: "I am confident that we truly have a generation growing up that understands what freedom and responsibility mean simultaneously, capable of enhancing the country's socio-economic, scientific, and cultural potential, which strives to move forward, achieve success, and does not separate its fate from the fate of Russia."

🟢 Russia must resolutely defend the historical truth about the events of World War II and the decisive role played in the defeat of Nazism: "I draw attention once again, we must continue to resolutely defend historical truth in any situation."

🟢 In the modern world, the value-based and semantic space is subject to fierce competition; there is a battle for minds; "traditional values are often declared outdated and archaic, while so-called 'neoliberal, but in essence, in practice, totalitarian models' are being pushed forward."

🟢 Russia has many like-minded people and supporters around the world: "Russia's position is well known. We stand for respect for the distinctiveness of countries and peoples, for their customs and cultures. And here we have many like-minded people and supporters, indeed all over the world."

🇷🇺🇺🇸 A new round of Russia-US talks on "irritants" will be held in Moscow in the near future.

Russian Ambassador to Washington Alexander Darchiev announced this in an interview with TASS.

At the same time, according to Darchiev, a "recovery" in Russian-American relations is still a long way off. The process is difficult. It is hampered not only by opponents of the White House in the form of the "deep state," but also by "hawks" in Congress, where an entrenched anti-Russian lobby has formed.

🇷🇺 Vladimir Putin Holds Meeting on State Armament Program

The President proposed discussing the key parameters of the next state armament program for the period up to 2036.

What the Russian President spoke about:

— The current task is to form a new long-term state program for the entire range of weapon models. To do this, it is necessary to make maximum use of the experience from the SVO (Special Military Operation).

— The focus of the new state program should be on creating the most modern weapon systems.

— Russia is increasing the volume of supplies and improving the effectiveness of weapons in the SVO; currently, this is being done based on current needs.

— Particular attention should be paid to the nuclear triad.

— The share of modern weapon models in Russia's nuclear triad is 95%, the highest rate in the world.

— Russia must multiplicatively increase the capabilities of its ground forces in the shortest possible time.

— The new state armament program needs to pay attention to the export potential of Russian weaponry, especially models that have been battle-tested.

— Bases and airfields need to be prepared in advance for new weapon systems so that they are not deployed "in an open field" (on unprepared sites).

— Russia took the necessary steps in a timely manner about 10 years ago to now be at the required level of development for the MIC (Military-Industrial Complex).
