Russian President Vladimir Putin appeared at a huge flag-waving rally at a Moscow stadium Friday and praised his country’s troops in biblical terms as they rained lethal fire on Ukraine’s cities.

“Shoulder to shoulder, they help and support each other,” Putin said of the Kremlin’s forces in a rare public appearance since the invasion three weeks ago that made Russia an outcast among nations and triggered antiwar protests at home. “We have not had unity like this for a long time,” he added to cheers from the crowd.

Moscow police said more than 200,000 people were in and around the Luzhniki stadium for the celebration marking the eighth anniversary of Russia’s annexation of the Crimean peninsula, seized from Ukraine.

The event included patriotic songs, including a performance of “Made in the U.S.S.R.,” with the opening lines “Ukraine and Crimea, Belarus and Moldova, it’s all my country.”

Nothing says nationalism like invading a sovereign country

Я русская и горжусь этим. Нашей стране давно пора подняться с колен и не давать себя унижать. Сколько лет мы терпим санкции. Русские спортсмены не выступают под своим флагом. Ни к одной стране мира не относятся так, как к нам. Все санкции, которые к нам применяют, наш народ только сплочают. Оглянитесь. Полмира с нами. Все кого опускали, угнетали, деморализовать - встают за нашу спину. Потому Россия - сила!

Its literally impossible to find the entire speech translated anywere on youtube. Even if your not a Putin-supporter, it would be interesting to be able to access the information.

Reminds me of the Nazi Party and the support they had from their citizens! We know happened there and I think we’re in for another rude awakening!

He talks about Ukraine the way Hitler talked about Czechoslovakia.

This is huge rally, big rally like Trump, but I hope soon I will hold rally in my North Korea, and we will play my favorite song, Rocket Man by Elton John, and everyone will sing along

He might one day hold what seems like a supportive rally until he experiences what I call that Ceausescu moment

He knows he's losing, he knows Russia's economy is being crushed, he knows he's lost the information war. This is desperation pure and simple.

Dictatorship 101: When things are bad in your country, go start a war to galvanize and unite your people so that they can forget in what miserable conditions they live in.

Nice turtleneck. You can take the boy out of the Stasi, but you can't take the Stasi out of the boy.

This shows the true Russia, the media had us believing these people were home crying. They had to show it because Putin was there speaking.
