Dear compatriots!

I address you to express gratitude for the patience and wisdom that you have demonstrated.

Yesterday, a referendum on the early elections of the President of Abkhazia took place. Despite all political difficulties, we succeeded in being tolerant of each other.

Step by step we are overcoming this crisis. The government is making every effort for this, but I should say that first of all – this is the merit of all the people of Abkhazia!

Yesterday, at 7 o’clock in the morning, stations were opened for voting throughout the entire republic. I want to say with full responsibility that on the part of governmental institutions, all conditions were provided and all constitutional norms were fulfilled to ensure a free expression of will by every citizen of Abkhazia.

The people have made a decision. I urge all political forces of Abkhazia to respect this decision and not to create new conditions for the destabilisation of our society. 

Yesterday, international mass media were focused on Abkhazia, we were closely observed by the world. We have demonstrated to the international society and, most importantly, to ourselves that we can solve difficult state issues in accordance with the law.

It is important to remember that this crisis has made us stronger.

These were difficult months for our state and our people, but we have passed this stage and it is important to think about tomorrow.

There is a lot of work before us. We do not divide our people into us and them. Instead, we support interaction on all levels of state policy. We are ready to accept constructive criticism.

A single person cannot build a prosperous state. Each one of us has to take part in this, honestly doing their duties before the state and society. The government works for the people and for the sake of their well-being.

Let us stop dividing our society and undermining the foundations of the state. Let us become a single power, working to build a bright future for our state.
