To the Rally in London

I thank you for your greetings on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Red Army. I send my warm regards to the people of Great Britain, our fighting ally.

The Red Army is successfully carrying out its task of routing the Hitler invaders. Together with the armies of our allies, we shall defeat the common enemy.

I am convinced that the united efforts of the Soviet Union, Great Britain, and the United States of America will ensure the complete destruction of the German fascist aggressors.

I. Stalin
