Россия и другие бывшие советские республики отмечают День Победы

Россия и другие бывшие советские республики в субботу (9 мая) отмечают День Победы.

Президент России Владимир Путин возложил красные розы к Вечному огню у могилы Неизвестного солдата в Александровском саду Кремля, отдав дань уважения погибшим во время Великой Отечественной войны Советского Союза 1941-1945 годов против нацистской Германии, известной как Вторая мировая война.

Позже российский президент провел смотр марша президентского полка кремлевской комендатуры.

Выступая перед полком, Путин подчеркнул, что "75 лет назад, в мае 1945 года, Красная Армия положила конец трагедии XX века, с триумфом завершила самую жестокую в истории битву. Она была справедливой, героической и жертвенной для всего советского народа - именно он сокрушил нацизм, разгромил эту чудовищную силу, которая принесла миллионам людей смерть, горе и страдания".

"Уверен, благодарный мир через десятилетия и века будет помнить об этом подвиге, а для народа России стойкость, воля и сплочённость поколения победителей навсегда останутся высшим примером священного отношения к родной земле, к родной стране."

В этом году массовые мероприятия по случаю Дня Победы были отложены из-за пандемии коронавируса.

Однако президент России Владимир Путин пообещал, что 75-летие Победы Советского Союза над фашистской Германией в Великой Отечественной войне 1941-1945 годов будет отмечаться широко и достойно в конце года военным парадом на Красной площади и маршем Бессмертного полка.

Небольшие торжества были проведены и в других бывших советских республиках. В Беларуси же прошел как обычно полный военный парад.

Borrell tells the European Parliament that the situation in Afghanistan was critical, but the EU will remain engaged

Borrell underlined that the European Union will make every effort to support the peace process and to remain a committed partner to the Afghan people. "Of course, we will have to take into account the evolving situation, but disengagement is not an option.  We are clear on that: there is no alternative to a negotiated political settlement, through inclusive peace talks.

Turkiye to host COP31 in 2026

A consensus has emerged during COP 30, currently being held in Belan, Brazil, that COP 31 will be held in the Turkish city of Antalya, in 2026. In 2026 Turkiye will host another global event, the NATO leaders summit. Turkiye is set to host COP31 after reaching compromise with Australia.  The COP31 climate meeting is now expected to be held in Turkey after Australia dropped its bid to host the annual event. Under the UN rules, the right to host the COP in 2026 falls to a group of countries made up of Western Europe, Australia and others. A consensus must be reached but neither country had been willing to concede. Australia has now agreed to support the Turkish bid in return for their minister chairing the talks following negotiations at COP30, currently being held in Brazil. This unusual arrangement has taken observers by surprise. It is normal for a COP president to be from the host country and how this new partnership will work in practice remains to be seen. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has called the compromise with Turkey an "outstanding result" in an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), noting Pacific issues would be "front and centre". He added that he had spoken to Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape and Prime Minister Rabuka of Fiji. There will be relief among countries currently meeting at COP30 in the Brazilian city of Belém that a compromise has been reached as the lack of agreement on the venue was becoming an embarrassment for the UN.
