This is what they say. Mr. Trump today on one of the networks. When was that . 1838 . Somebody said that was great but nothing like what happened here. More importantly right heard might say what happened in indiana we will do that all over the country. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump carrier. Thank you. Now, the real work begins. I am going to discuss our action plan to make America Great again. We are going to discuss. [cheers and applause] although we did have a lot of fun fighting hillary, didnt we . Right . [chanting lock her up] [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and by the way, the people are continuing to pour in. Let them come in. We can wait. We can wait a half hour, one hour, but i dont think were going to do that. Right . Let them pour in. Let us blame them for being late, right . Toas in indianapolis announce that we are saving the fromat the carrier plant going to mexico. 1100 jobs. [cheers and applause] asking alland im companies to keep their jobs in america and we will work to make america a better environment for workers and businesses and we will crack on all Foreign Trade abuses that undermine your ability and your company wash ability compete. Those days are over companys ability to compete. Those days are over. We have so many problems to fix in our country but i know that if we set aside our differences, and we do have differences, we are a very divided nation, but we are not going to be divided for long. I have always brought people together. I know you find that hard to believe. [laughter] this groupalthough probably doesnt find it hard to believe, but we are going to bring our country together, all of our country. We are going to find Common Ground and we will get the job done properly. We will get it done properly. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and so importantly, america will start winning again, bigleague. We are going to win again. We must enlist the effort of all americans. For too long, washington has tried to us in boxes. They separate us by race, by age, by income, by geography, by place of birth. We spend too much time focusing on what divides us. Now is the time to embrace the one thing that truly unites us. You know what that is . America. America. America. [cheers and applause] because when america is unified, nothing is beyond our reach. I mean that. You are going to see. You are going to see. We are going to have a country that was never so great. You watch. In so many different ways. Youve your a lot of talk about how we are becoming a globalized relationships people value in this country are local, family, city, state, country. They are local. We will compete in the world, we want to compete in the world, but we are going to compete in the world where it is a twoway road and not a oneway road. The advantages are going to come back to our country and they have not for many, many years. There is no global answer, no global currency, no certificate of global citizenship. We pledge allegiance to one flag and that flag is the american flag. [cheers and applause] [chanting usa] mr. Trump from now on, it is going to be america first, ok . America first. We are going to put ourselves first. We seek peace and harmony with the nations of the world, but that means recognizing the right of every country, including our own, to look after its citizens. We would put other countries first, we had people running our country that truly did not know what the hellwe would put other, ok . Did not know what they were doing. We are going to defend the American Worker. Look what has happened right here. About the American Worker. They it was the American Worker who truly built our country. We are not going to forget, believe me. About the american one of the reasons we are so divided today is because our government has failed to protect the interests of the American Workers and their families, for us to seeeasy ourselves as distinct groups and not unified as a whole. We are not unified. We are going to be. Washingtons politicians have appealing to competing interests, they have forgotten how to appeal to the combining theest, skills and talents of our people in a common cause. We have unbelievable talent, but that is all about to change. Our goal is to strengthen the bonds of trust between citizens to restore our sense of membership in a shared national community. Global is a wonderful. But right now, we want to focus on our national community. Never again will anyones interests come before the interests of the american people. It is not going to happen again. [cheers and applause] and over the last two weeks, since our victory, i have spoken to many foreign leaders, and i will tell you, they have such respect for us. They all tell me how this was amazing. They all tell me how they sat in their magnificent rooms. Different countries throughout the world, these are the leaders, the prime ministers, them, howent, all of they sat in different rooms, watching in wonderment hearing , how people came to vote that had not voted in 20 years or people came to vote that had not noted before, and they had trump shirts on and make America Great on, and they hats thought it was amazing. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and honestly, one of them told me, i truly respect the United States again because of what happened. [cheering and applause] mr. Trump we are going to seek a truly Inclusive Society where we support each other and love each other and look out for each other and that means people coming into our country have to be people that have the potential to love us. Not hate us. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump [cheers and applause] we condemn bigotry and prejudice in all of its forms. We denounce all of the hatred and we forcefully reject of linkage of exclusion and separation. We are going to come together. We have to. It is better. Where everyture american child is fully included in the American Dream. We are going to have our own American Dream and we are going to bring back the American Dream. The problems that plague our inner cities or that afflict poor, rural communities, and we have those rural communities, some of them are poor. We are going to help those people. We are going to rebuild those communities. They can be fixed and together, we are going to fix them. We are going to fix them. We have spent as of this week, according to the latest count, we have spent 6 trillion in the middle east. And the middle east today is far worse than it has ever been. [booing] mr. Trump you will see changes very quickly. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump you will see it. A shrinking workforce and flat wages are not the new normal. And we are not even talking about flat. We are talking about wages where some of you in this audience hardworking incredible , americans were making more years ago that you are making today, and today, you are older and working harder, and in many cases, you have two jobs, and some of that is because of obamacare, and by the way, we are repealing and replacing obamacare. [cheers and applause] we can reverse the stagnation and usher in a period of two opportunity and growth. Endless gridlock is not a way of life any longer. We dont have to accept that. Government can be responsive and we can become proud again of how washington works. And i have spoken to democrats and i said to them, look, we cant go on with this gridlock. It has gone on for so many years. It has gone on for so many years. They cant get together. We are going to get together and i believe they want to get together. You know why, because its time and the people are angry. They are angry, and they are going to get together. We are going to make joint decisions. M as part and the nice part . Our victory was so great we have the house, we have the senate and we have the presidency. ,[cheers and applause] mr. Trump but we want to get them on board also. People are constantly telling me and telling you to reduce our expectations. Those people are fools. They are fools, but this campaign proved that the old rules no longer apply, that anything we want for our country is now possible, anything. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump right . Now is not the time to downsize our dreams but to set our sights higher than ever before for our country. [cheers and applause] now is the time to push for real profound change that restores the full promise of america for all of its people and those people are great , people. I got to know them, believe me, over the last 18 months. And what we have created is a movement, and its a beautiful thing. If you take a look here, the roads are all gridlocked, all gridlocked, all locked down, all secured up, and people pour in. Its an amazing thing. Now is the time to unlock the potential of millions of americans left on the sidelines. Their talents and use, their dreams unrealized, unused, their dreams unrealized and their aspirations totally forgotten. These are people of great talent. This is the moment. This is our chance. This is our window for action. This is the hour when the great deed can be done and our highest hopes can come true. We are going to do it, folks. We are going to do it. [cheers and applause] we are going to do it. Usa]ng we love you, donald mr. Trump thank you. I love you too. Some guy. Look at this guy. And i do love him. He is a rough looking cookie though, i will tell you. [laughter] mr. Trump we love him. We have a lot of love, believe me. Theres going to be a lot of love in our country. Driven by these goals, i am working to assemble a detailed action plan for america. My plan begins with a bold structural reform to create millions of new jobs and rapidly expand our economic growth. And you see whats happening with taxes. You see whats happening with regulations which are totally , out of control. By now we punish companies for , doing business in america. They are actually punished. Thats why they are leaving and by the way i have to say we are going to reduce taxes for the middle class. In particular, but for our country, we are going to reduce the regulations. But if a Company Wants to still leave the state of ohio or pennsylvania or how about North Carolina . How well did we do in North Carolina . [cheers and applause] mr. Trump right . Remember when they said, he cannot win North Carolina. So we had just won ohio, and we had just won florida. Breaking news, Donald Trumps won florida. They said whoa, and we won it big. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump but then the people back there, the extremely Dishonest Press [booing] mr. Trump right . [booing] mr. Trump very dishonest people. [booing] mr. Trump how about how about when a major anchor who hosted a debate started crying when she realized that we won . [laughter] mr. Trump how about that . [cheers and applause] tears. Mp dont tell me, this is untrue. And do you know what she doesnt understand . Things are going to be much better now. She doesnt understand. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump i mean, think of it. We won in a landslide. That was a landslide, and we did not have the press. The press was brutal. [booing] mr. Trump you know what . [booing] mr. Trump hey, in the great state of ohio, we do not have the Upper Echelon of politician either, did we . But i will say this, i will say this. And it was very nice. Your Governor John Kasich called me after the election and was very nice. [booing] mr. Trump he said congratulations, that was amazing. He couldnt believe how much we we won ohio and the election by. Remember, you cannot get to 270 with the Dishonest Press. There is no road. Folks, how many times did we hear this . There is no path to 270. [laughter] mr. Trump there is no path. [laughter] [cheers and applause] mr. Trump there is no path. [cheers and applause] there are is no path for donald trump. Texas is in play, remember that one . [laughter] now as rep. Pocan , im supposed to win texas now as a republican, im supposed to win texas, when georgia, the great state of utah. I love those states. Remember when they said donald trump is going to lose to some guy i never heard of . Who is that guy . He is going to lose to this guy but the people of utah were amazing and we trounced them. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and by the way hillary came in second and that , guy came in third. Im still trying to figure out, im still trying to figure out, i wondered what the hell was he trying to prove . I wondered what the hell he was trying to prove. I guess he wanted us to lose the Supreme Court. Thats the only thing he was going to get. Think of it. They said, two or three weeks before the election. My friends told me just the opposite. They said georgia is in play. Texas is in play. Like, we are even and then we won in a landslide. ,most states. What happened . They go, for weeks, texas is in play. Whatand then you turn on the , Television Two minutes later, donald trump has won texas. These are very, very dishonest people. [booing] mr. Trump i love this stuff. Should i go on with this just a little bit longer . [cheers and applause] mr. Trump i love it. How about, its like 12 00 in the evening and pennsylvania, i am leading by a lot, and we couldnt get off 98 . They didnt want to call it. We are leading by so much that it is impossible. If i lost every other vote, and they refuse to call and then at 3 00, i will never forget. I watched that particular person and we won wisconsin and we won michigan and we won pennsylvania, right . [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and that person is doing the math and that person was saying for months that there is no way that donald trump can break the blue wall, right . [cheers and applause] we didnt break it, we shattered that sucker. Shattered. Shattered it. Man, that poor wall is busted up. So i will never forget it though because it felt so good. You know more so because they , kept saying there is no path. And all this nonsense, so i go out and see the people like this say, how are we going to lose . But what happened, so they say we win wisconsin. Donald trump, 38 years or so, donald trump has won michigan and they are looking at the map and saying, oh wow, there is no way that Hillary Clinton can become president. Donald trump is president of the United States. Oh. Amazing. Its amazing. Its really amazing. And one of the announcers, one of the announcers, i will have to tell you from espn, now they cover football and boxing and everything, right . And he went out and he said, i have got to tell you, that event meaning the election results, was better than any fight, any baseball game, any football game. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump he said that was the most exciting event i have ever seen, and it was politics. Then you look at the nfl. Now its just not recovering but their ratings were so far down and you know what the reason was . Because this business is tougher than the nfl. Its crazy. The people liked it. Their ratings were down 20 to 21 and it was because of us. So, we had a lot of fun. The bottom line is we won. We won. We won. We won big. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump whether its producing steel, building cars or curing disease, we want the , next generation of innovation and production to happen right here in america and right here in ohio. Right . Mr. Trump first on taxes. We are going to massively lower taxes, and make america the best , toe in the world to hire invest, to create, and to expand. Regulations we are going to , eliminate every single regulation that undermines the ability of our workers and our companies to compete with companies from foreign lands. We are going to do it. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump we have the greatest competitors on earth and by the way, i have put on some of the greatest Business People in the world. One of the networks said, he put on a billionaire. At commerce. Thats because this guy knows how to make money, folks. [laughter] he knows how to make money. Id like to put on a guy that has failed all his life but we dont want that, do we . No mr. Trump i have been honest. I said im going to be putting on the greatest killers you have ever seen. We need that. Its time. Its time. Its time. [cheers and applause] we have a great, great cabinet. I will tell you. Wait until you see what we have next week. Are we doing a good job with our cabinet and our people . [cheers and applause] mr. Trump and i dont want to tell you, i dont want to tell you this because i want to save the suspense for next week.

Trump but we are not announcing it until monday so dont tell anybody. [laughter] mr. Trump mad dog. He is great. He is great. I asked one of the generals, i love the generals.

Sir, he is better than i am. [laughter] mr. Trump i loved it, they love him. We will be announcing him on monday of next week. Keep it inside the room, but thats what we have and he is our best. They say he is the closest thing to general George Patton that we have, and its about time, about time. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump ok. I gave up a little secret. [chanting usa] mr.

[cheers and applause] mr. Trump on infrastructure we , will build new roads, tunnels, bridges, railways, airports, schools, and hospitals, including Major Projects in the inner cities.

The Africanamerican Community was so great to me in this election. They were so great to me. [cheers and applause] mr. Trump amazing. I couldnt believe it.

On trade, the history of the nation teaches us that the strength of a country and its data and Manufacturing Sector is trade and Manufacturing Sector is vital to both its Economic Prosperity and national security. Because we dont do that. Our borders are weak, our trade is terrible. You are going to see a turn that is so big, and its going to happen so fast, and we started today in indiana.

But if you try sometimes you might find you get what you need former white house staffers and president ial transition teams will discuss how the incoming first family prepares to move into the white house and how incoming president s govern through their first 100 ays. Russian president Vladmir Putin says he wants to work with the Incoming White House administration. He also spoke about key domes stigs issues like the need to strengthen the economy and educational system. His annual state address from russia, came from st. George hall in the kremlin. [applause] thank you. Please be seated. 6 colleagues, today we will talk about our objectives in the economy, social programs, foreign policies. This time we will talk more about the economy and social issues as well as our internal policies. We have to address these matters in a difficult situation but we have been there before and the people of russia demonstrated that they are willing to deal with such challenges to defend our national interests. The sovereignty and independence of our country. And this is what i would like to see. I said this earlier publicly but i would like to reiterate people have rallied. Our people rallied around the patriotic values. And not just because they like verything. There are difficulties. There are problems. But we understand where they come from and we feel confidence that we will be able to overcome them. We are ready to work for the benefit of russia. We genuinely care about russia. This is what we have rallied around and people expect that equal opportunities will be provided for everybody. People will be able to fulfill themselves, implement their entrepreneurial undertakings. They expect us to respect their freedom, their rights, and so on. This is a universal principle, we strongly defended defend it. We have been quite successful at this. Sbrassly. But we should also guarantee the same rights inside our country for every individual and for entire societies in general. Any kind of discrimination is perceived very strongly by our people. This is what makes our culture so special. We reject any kind of selfishness whoever it comes from. Our people are responsible, highly ethical. We care about public interests. We are ready to listen to others and respect their opinions. We have seen this during the Electoral Campaign we had this year. As you know, we have returned to a mixed modal for electing the state duma. This was first proposed in the state of the nation address in 2012 and it was supported by the nation. A direct democracy. Competition. Electoral competition. This is the policy we want to pursue, and we will definitely continue with that. The state duma has increased its role as a representative body and ant whole the reputation of legislative assemblies has been strengthened. We should continue this work and this applies to all the Political Forces represented in the parliament. Of course the united rashe party has special responsibility here. This party has a constitutional majority in the duma. This is the Strong Foundation for the government in the parliament and we should Work Together to make sure that all the commitments, all the promises we have made are fulfilled and implemented. People made their choice during the election. They chose a path for our country to pursue. They demonstrated that we live n a just society immune to populism and demagogue gri. People appreciate mutual support and unity. Of course we are not talking about adopting some kind of false unity imposed on people. Weve seen this before in our history and we are not going to go back to those times. But this does not mean that you can use nice words and talk about freedom and use this as n excuse for offending other oples feelings, elitist sentiments. If you think youre more advanced, smarter than others, well if youre so smart you should respect other people. Of course, i think it is unacceptable to respond to this aggressively as well, especially if it involves. Andalism well talk about the responsibility that different members have before society. But i would like to understand, in culture, in arts, in media, whenever when we argue about economic issues, everybody is entitled to presenting their opinions. When we talk about unity, when we talk about solidarity, we talk about a natural solidarity of people for the benefit of russia and its development. Do you think we can achieve strategic goals if we are divided . If instead of a working parliament we just have a place where people argue forever and ever without end without any rogress . World and the most developed countries have a growing number of internal conflicts in addition to the European Countries we have had a number of those over the decades we will mark the anniversary of the revolution in 2017 everybody should take in honest look at the history espectfully. He said all those ears of suffering. This is what alexander launten wrote about in his words. He said, we know the hard task that our country has taken. We know all those years of suffering. But still, this is part of our history. Im confident that most of our people feel the same way. And we need the lessons of history for reconciliation to strengthen our republic harmony, which we have achieved today. Anger, not keep this this dissatisfaction from the past and bring it in to our life today. We shouldnt take advantage of tragedy to receive some selfish goals today. Lets remember that weare one nation, and we have the ame russia, all of us. Colleagues, the purpose of all of our policies is to preserve people to increase our human wealth so russias ourefforts are focused on supporting the traditional values, family, demographic programs, improving arts and ulture, science. Id like to say a few words about the current situation, what we have achieved. Of course, we have seen an increase in population in 2013. Even demographers how this birth coefficient. It was 1. 7 and russia, higher than in most European Countries. In portugal they had 1. 3. In Czech Republic 1. 5. This is the data from 2013. In 2015 russias coefficient will be even higher, 1. 78. We will continue our social transformation and. We want our social program to be closer for people to be more modern and just. We should use skilled personnel and social programs. Thats why we are using conditions to specialist and we see growing number of applications for medical schools, teaching academies in 2015. Applications for teachers was seven points eight times the number of positions vailable. Just recently, the number of applications for uition free spots in medical colleges. I wish them the best of luck. I remember how wediscussed hightech medical aid projects develop a network of Perinatal Centers around the country. We had none just recently. Now we have 94, and now our doctors are able to ave newborns in the most complicated basis. Justrecently mortality indicators were 6. 5, whereas the european region of the w. H. O. Had 6. 6 so we were better. After 10 months n 2016 we achieved 5. 9. In the last 10 years, we increased the amount of hightech medical help provided 15 times over. Not just in bigger cities. Also in some remote areas people can get help. When we launched this program we had only 60,000 people in russia received this kind of help. In 2016, the number has grown 60,000 to y from 900,000 next year. Wewill provide a substantial higher number. This will make even more available. On the whole we should see, frankly. We still have problems in our health care sector. We have a lot of problems come especially at the initial phase. And we should focus on this developing area. Quite often people have to wait list. Time on waiting our doctors areoverburdened and its hard to get in a plan with the proper doctor. Quite often clinics have modern equipment but medical staff does not have the skills to use them. Since we organized retraining for doctors, where doctors will be ble to use their education certificates to choose where they want to get the skills and knowledge. We will provide additional computers for doctors. We will schedule doctors from filling out paperwork giving them more time to work with patients directly. Weve increased efficiency. We will have the internet and all the hospitals, so doctors even in remote towns and villages will be able to use Remote Health care, technology. I would like to ask the minister of communications to takenote. The minister has told us that this is realistic. So the entire country will now know about this and they will make sure that this really does happen. Since russia is such a large country. We also need an and or ambulance service. Next year the program will cover 34 provinces and will be funded from the federal budget. We are talking specifically siberia, the arctic and the far east. And as our deputies now, this as actually your initiative in 2017. We will allocate will be uprooted from the second reading, 3. 3 billion rubles which will be part of the throughout our vast country, colleagues,children should be able to live in modern, comfortable schools so we will continue our program for renovation of schools. Our schools should not be without proper facilities. We should offer retraining programs for our teachers. You know that we launched a Program Opening new spaces in schools. It was for he period 20162025, as we all know this is something that Regional Governments are primarily responsible for, but we made a decision to support the regions with this plan and we plan to create 187,000 new openings in schools. And what arents and teachers care about the most is a content, the curriculum. Because School Education has two primary objectives. This is what the outcome addition talked about, to provide knowledge and to bring up foster, encouragement. When he spoke about ethics he said this is extremely important for society, and, of ourse, its important to preserve the quality of our ducation, and we already see communication of this happening in schools. But its not just enough to increase the number f classes with special projects. The cinema industry, television, the problem must be interesting to young people that will get them interested in history, culture. We should do our part to have children think freely and independently and work on the on so that in the future this will be Strong Foundation for their future life. And schools have many nteresting experiments, both in our country and abroad. Of course, you have to be careful with experimenting. It is important to raise our children to be researchers. The number of Technology Groups for children will increase within the next few years dramatically. This is something that companies, Research Centers should participate in. Our children should have the kind of clear understanding that they all have equal opportunities that russia needs their knowledge, their skills, and there will be interesting jobs for them in russian companies. We know about the serious center for talented children. And i think we need more centers like this for Regional Government to consider using such centers for supporting the talented, gifted young people. Translator at the same time, id like to mention something. At the same time out the foundation of the entire foundation, we should have this principle that every child is talented. Every child is gifted. They are all capable of succeeding in education, sports. Its up to us to help them fulfill their talents. This is the key to russia translator colleagues, i give young generation as a Strong Foundation for the future of russia in 21st century, which is going to be difficult. Our young generation will be competitive and will be important in forming the agenda. Many participate in programs today, help take care of the sick, help older people, participate in educational programs, arts programs, environmental programs. In particular, we see people joining all sorts of charitable activities. We see this in social media, people raising money to help sick children, and people re spond genuinely to such requests. From the bottom of their hearts. Sometimes i am impressed, surprised how people who are not very wealthy respond so quickly to such requests. They listen to their heart and respond. Should etive Center Support these volunteer centers and not governmental organizations. People who participate in projects like this for this kind of atmosphere, this kind of envirmente that russia needs very much. This is the kind of potential we need today. We need to develop movements. We need to provide aid to ngos. Weve made all the decisions necessarily. Ngos that have proper experience will have access to providing social services funded from the budget
