I just watched this video cause I like hearing the Russian language. I don't know what he's saying, maybe I should learn Russian one day. Their national anthem is nice too.

CUTEST PRIME MINISTER EVER <.< I'm serious.

Being an American learning Russian, I find it very interesting how clearly he speaks and how strongly he pronounces each word. It makes for very good listening. Thanks for posting.

Learning how? Like, by what method?

[envyEye]

I'm taking classes at a state University.

[arbuckle1029]

Ah, where I go, they don't offer Russian :{

this is great. i picked up about 80% of it (not quite all the way there in my russian language abilities), but i find it particularly hilarious that he's saying all of these nice things, but he doesn't smile. at all.

. I ask you not to forget those that made our future possible. Our mothers and fathers. Our grandfathers and grandmothers. Right now, behind your holiday table are friends, the dearest and closest people. I congratulate you with the upcoming New Year. May all your wishes come true. May there be health and happiness in every family of our large country. Happiness and luck to you. Happy, 2007th, New Year."

Very nice. Thanks for the translation, I pick up about every 5 or 6th word at this point in my learning of the Russian language, which doesn't help much with speeches.

We are creating circumstances for the development of spirituality and culture, education and science, those values that will continue to determine Russia's development in the future. Respect for the elders is a sign of maturity in any society, and its stability. The government is obligated to, and will, support and help seniors. But this will not replace the warmness of close ones for them.

That there will be less poverty. That life would not simply be the solution of everyday problems, but would be filled with love and care for one another. That there would be more children, and that they would be happy. Our job is to ensure that young people get a modern education, and find a good use for their talents and skills, and that they are healthy.

[CommyPenguin]

We are already determinedly looking towards the future. We are greatly expanding the horizons of our plans. This was made possible by a group effort towards rebuilding and strengthening the country during the past year. I would like, and we will do everything possible, so that the results we have reached in the economy will bring serious, positive changes in the lives of every person.

[CommyPenguin]

Ok, rough translation... "Respected citizens of Russia, dear friends, in a couple of minutes it will be our favorite, warmest, traditional family holiday; the New Year. For each of us this is a special celebration: it is a holiday of hope. And even though we are all different, right now we are united in a hope for change. We are united by the feeling of being in one big family, the name of which is Russia. Today we are greeting the new, 2007th, year.
