Happy New Year, 2017!
It was not a simple year, was not a year of "easy walk". An important component of 2016 can be called the fact that Russia, and it was worth a lot of hard work, consolidated its position in the arena of the emerging multipolar world, declared itself as a power capable of solving the most complex tasks of a military and geopolitical nature. We (Russia) once again faced the monstrous scale of anti-Russian propaganda, went through numerous provocations. Has this made us stronger? Yes. Of course.
Russia is improving methods of protecting its interests, is establishing contacts with those with whom they can and should be established for the planned development and positive dynamics in various fields, including information.
"Military Review" tried all year to keep abreast of important events. Special thanks to all those readers who continue to be our loyal friends and help our online magazine keep up the pace.
During the year, the Military Review made a number of changes on the site, to which our readers reacted differently. A really heated discussion turned around the abolition of the so-called "minuses." The phrase “return the minuses” became, if not the phrase of the year on “VO”, then both the editorial staff and the readers certainly remembered. The position of "VO" on this issue remains the same: if the comments do not contain what the site rules can and should remove, then an adequate response from other readers is not a faceless minus, but a reasoned answer in which you can express everything that a person thinks about this - within the rules of communication on the site, of course. In this connection, I would like to say thanks to our readers for the fact that you are not indifferent not only to the topics that are published on the site, but also to the changes that occur directly on the Military Review. We can agree with each other, we can disagree and have a heated discussion, but what is important is that it is in a civilized dispute that truth can be born.
In 2016, “Military Review” with your, dear friends, set a record for attendance. On some days, the indicator stepped over 420 thousands of unique visitors per day. We are pleased that the activities of the “Military Review” team in terms of information and analysis and the direction of the published materials are of such high interest among our readers from all over the world. And in addition to Russia, “Military Review”, as is known, is read in Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Germany, Israel, the USA, Canada, Turkey and other countries.
New Year is usually associated with hope for the best and faith in the future. We wish all our readers to remain our good friends in the future, let all the good things that have pleased you and me in the outgoing year receive our continuation in the new year. Let the new 2017 year give us all only joyful moments, well-being, good luck, the fulfillment of the cherished dream. Let good health does not bypass us with you. May all important undertakings be realized and become a reality of hope. We wish you in the New Year only positive and happiness.
