The revolution has been carried out by the Petrograd workers.
The revolution has not stopped, it is just starting.
Petrograd has awakened Russia. Petrograd has liberated her. The great cause of the Petrograd workers.
The Soviet of Soldiers’ and Workers’ Deputies will subsequently take power and do away with war and the rule of capital!
What the Petrograd workers have started, the soldiers’ fraternisation at the front will continue.
Fraternal alliance of workers of all countries.
Long live the Russian revolution!
Long live the world socialist revolution!
N. Lenin
April 25, 1917{1}
