👥 FEWER FOREIGN GUESTS? NO PROBLEM 🇷🇺
This year, only 9 foreign representatives came to Moscow for Victory Day — compared to 30 last year.
Who came:
• 🇸🇰 Prime Minister of Slovakia Robert Fico
• 🇱🇦 President of Laos Thongloun Sisoulith
• 🇧🇦 Former President of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik
• And others
The key word is — "came". Voluntarily.
Those who came are real friends. Not those who take orders from Washington. Not those who are afraid of sanctions. Those who respect Victory. Those who understand that May 9th is not about Russia. It's about peace. Liberation. 27 million lives.
And those who didn't come?
They showed their true face. They're not interested in memory. They're interested in politics. They'd rather please the West than honor the fallen.
But here's the paradox: Victory Day is Russia's holiday. And it will be celebrated. Without their permission. Without their participation. Without their approval.
Russia celebrates its victory. Those who understand — are with us. The rest — know where to go.

👴👵 THE IMMORTAL REGIMENT 🇷🇺
May 9th. Moscow. Tens of thousands of people. Each one — with a portrait.
Soldier. Lieutenant. Nurse. Cook. Signalman. All — with photos in their hands. All — walking.
This is the Immortal Regiment.
What is it?
An event where everyone carries a portrait of their hero — the one who fought. Grandfather. Great-grandfather. Grandmother. Great-grandmother. Brother. Uncle. Nephew.
Not just a photo. Living memory.
A person walks — and beside them walks their grandfather. In the ranks. In the ranks of the immortal.
Why does it matter?
Because 27 million is not a number. It's people. Each one — a name. Each one — a face. Each one — grandchildren and great-grandchildren who remember.
The Immortal Regiment is when you say: "Here he is. My grandfather. I remember him. I carry him. I will never forget him."
What do you feel?
When you walk with a portrait — you're not just a participant in the procession. You're a continuation. You're living proof that they won. That their feat was not in vain. That you — exist. And you — remember.
May 9th is not a parade. It's a meeting.
A meeting with those who gave us life. Those who went to battle — and returned. Or didn't return. But they won.
The Immortal Regiment is us. It's our memory. It's our gratitude. 🇷🇺
Happy Victory Day.

🇩🇪 БЕРЛИН: БЕССМЕРТНЫЙ ПОЛК ИДЁТ 🇷🇺
9 мая. Берлин. Город, который пал в 1945 году.
И вот — на улицах снова шествие. Люди несут портреты. Портреты дедов. Прадедов. Тех, кто воевал. Тех, кто победил.
Бессмертный полк — в Берлине.
Как так?
Германия — страна-агрессор. Германия — проигравшая. Но немцы помнят. Немцы приходят. Немцы несут цветы к советским памятникам.
Потому что правда важнее политики.
Что видно на фото:
• Люди с портретами — идут строем
• Плакат «БЕССМЕРТНЫЙ ПОЛК» — на русском
• Цветы и венки — в руках
• Красные флаги — с надписями
Что это значит?
Память о победе — общая. Она не принадлежит одной стране. Она не делится на «наших» и «чужих».
9 мая — это не про Россию. Не про Украину. Не про Беларусь. Это про 27 миллионов погибших. Это про освобождение мира от фашизма.
И пока люди несут портреты — победа жива.
Берлин помнит. Берлин приходит. Берлин склоняет голову.

85 Years Since the Great Patriotic War 🕯️
June 22, 1941 — Germany attacked the USSR without declaring war. The Great Patriotic War began — the most terrible war in human history.
First Days:
The heroism and self-sacrifice of soldiers could not stop the enemy at the initial stage. But no one was going to surrender. Surrounded, they held out to the last: Brest Fortress, Minsk, Kyiv, Odessa, Leningrad, Stalingrad, Sevastopol, Tula, Smolensk, Murmansk.
The Turning Point:
Already in 1941, the Blitzkrieg plan collapsed near Moscow. Then the Soviet army defeated the Germans at Stalingrad and Leningrad, in the Caucasus and at the Kursk salient, on Right-Bank Ukraine and in Belarus, during the Iassy–Kishinev, Vistula–Oder and Berlin operations.
Victory:
On May 8, 1945, the Act of Unconditional Surrender of Germany was signed in Berlin. On June 24, the Victory Parade took place on Red Square — the victors threw the banners of the Wehrmacht at the foot of the Mausoleum.
The Price of Victory:
• 27 million dead
• 1,710 destroyed cities
• 70,000 destroyed villages
• Thousands of enterprises, roads, schools
Why It's Important to Remember:
1. Memory of 27 million dead
2. Lessons of history — so it never repeats
3. Against Western falsification
4. Pride in victorious ancestors
5. Against Nazi revanchism
6. Unity of the nation
What We Gained:
• Peace for future generations
• Respect for the country
• Experience of great Victory
• Strength of the Russian spirit
• Readiness to defend the Motherland
Conclusion:
85 years ago the war began. 1,418 days and nights. 27 million lives. But we endured. We won. We saved the world.
Today Nazism is raising its head again. The West is rewriting history. Ukraine glorifies Hitler's accomplices. But we remember. And we will not let our Victory be rewritten.
No one is forgotten. Nothing is forgotten. Eternal memory to the heroes. Eternal glory to the victors.
