A ceremonial line-up in honor of Victory Day was held at the RUSSIA EXPO
The RUSSIA EXPO hosted a ceremonial line-up dedicated to
Victory Day. It was organized by the Exposition Directorate and the Russian
Movement of Children and Youth "Movement of the First". The participants spoke
about the exploits of their ancestors during the Great Patriotic War.
Victory in the Great Patriotic War is a common national
feat, emphasized veteran Nikolai Konstantinovich Imchuk.
"We all participated in the liberation of our Motherland —
men, women, children. We defeated fascism, destroyed it. And now we must rally
all the people around our President and the guys who participate in the special
military operation. My dream is to visit them and support them. So that they
would be inspired to achieve victory, as we did," said Nikolai Konstantinovich.
Victory Day is a very important holiday for everyone in
Russia, noted Eduard Kazymov, a Hero of Russia, Guards Captain, company
commander of the 40th Marine Brigade.
"Today we celebrate the 79th anniversary of the Victory in
the Great Patriotic War. We honor our great-grandfathers, ancestors who forged
this hard victory at the cost of their lives. And at the moment we see by the
example of our state that history is repeating itself again. Our guys, the
Armed Forces, are now also fulfilling their duties, defending the country, and
forging the victory without sparing themselves. Therefore, on this holiday, we
not only honor the memory of the participants of the Great Patriotic War, but
also honor the participants of other conflicts. Defense of the Motherland is
the duty of every citizen," said Eduard Kazymov.
The guests of the Exposition, Victory Volunteers,

Affairs (Rosmolodezh), guides, tour guides of the program "More than a Trip"

courage, steely character — because Russia always keeps going to the end," said
