I have lived a long life, there was a lot of good in it, there was also bad. But this is my life. And the goal that I set when I was still "a young man thinking about life", fulfilled it to the best of my strength and abilities. I have always faithfully served my people and will serve them until the last day. In my life, as in any other, of course there were "black" days, but I did not erase any of them from my memory. At the same time, I don’t regret anything, and I don’t hold grudges against anyone.
