 MOSCOW, May 9 (Itar-Tass) - A military parade in honour of the 63rd
anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War began in Moscow at
ten in the morning with the solemn show of the Banner of Victory. 
A guard of honour carried the banner amid strains of the orchestra. 
Russian President and supreme commander of armed forcers, Dmitry Medvedev,
Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and other leaders of the country were the
central tribune. 
The commander of the parade was commander of Moscow Military District
commander General Vladimir Bakin. 
He reported to Defence Minister Anatoly Serdyukov about readiness for the
parade. 
The two military leaders reviewed parade arrays in a car. 
Medvedev addressed compatriots amid fanfare strains. 
“Our army and fleet are growing stronger, as Russia itself,” he said. 
He called for seriously treating the attempts at a revision of borders and
neglect of the international law. 
“The Victory festivity has become the most sacred, it has become forever a
symbol of our national unity,” Medvedev said. 
“The history of world wars shows that armed conflicts do not originate on
their own. They are instigated by those whose ambitions have an upper hand
of the interests of countries and continents, the interests of millions of
people. 
“Millions of citizens of not only of our country, but also of the CIS and
the far abroad celebrate the Victory Day. You cannot ignore the norms of
the international law, without which a safe life and a just world order
are impossible”. 
Medvedev called for remembrance of the lessons of the Second World War. 
“Esteemed citizens of Russia, dear veterans of the Great Patriotic War,
soldiers and sailors, sergeants and officers, generals and admirals! I
cordially congratulate you on the Day of the Great Victory. 
“I greet all veterans of the Great Patriotic War. You have not allowed
bringing our country to the knees, and you have given your descendants
lessons of genuine patriotism. Thanks to you, May 9 will forever remain a
day of liberation of our people, a day on which a new period of the world
history began. Our fathers and grandfathers suffered untold trials, but
they defended the sovereignty and independence of the Motherland, gave all
of us a charge us great faith in the triumph of truth and the life itself,
our national strength, tenability and freedom. And you opened for new
generations an epoch of peaceful accomplishments and victories. We are
meeting the 63rd victorious May. But the hard years of the Great Patriotic
War will be never forgotten. 
“We increasingly deeper understand their determining, fateful character
for the whole world, what a dramatic fate fell to the lot of the war-time
generation. In those ominous years, people of most different nationalities
fought shoulder to shoulder. And today, millions of citizens of not only
our country, but also of the CIS state and the far abroad are celebrating
the Victory Day. It is celebrated by all who honour the deed of people who
defeated fascism. 
“The farther the events of that horrible war away the higher is our common
responsibility for affairs on the globe. The history of world wars warns:
conflicts do not originate on their own. Those whose irresponsible
ambitions have an upper hand of the interests of countries and whole
continents instigate them. But we should act every day so that such
tragedies do not repeat. We should extremely seriously treat any attempts
to sow racial or religious feud, instigate the ideology of terror and
extremism, intentions to interfere in affairs of other states, and all the
more so attempts to revise borders. Neglect of the norms of the
international law that was pained by the international community must not
be allowed. 
“Esteemed citizens of Russia, dear friends. We are meeting May 9 by a
military parade, in which descendants of the Victory will march in one
array. It is they, sons and grandsons of soldiers of the Great Patriotic
War, who participated in tank battles and air fights, who went over the
top and beat fascists on sea frontiers and who understand well – the real
intent of weapons and military equipment are reliable protection of the
Motherland. Our army and fleet are growing stronger, and the historical
glory of Russian arms is in their present-day strength. However many year
pass, we shall not forget the defence of Moscow and Leningrad, the Battle
at Stalingrad, the Battle at Kursk and the struggle for the liberation of
Europe. We shall remember the contribution of those who unceasingly worked
in hospitals, at factories and plants, we will cherish this memory at the
call of the heart, conscience and duty. 
“Dear veterans, we learn from you to live and win in the name of the
Fatherland, to work so that our country is strong, prosperous and happy.
Long lives the victor! Long live the liberator army! Congratulations on
the Great Victory Day!” Medvedev said.
