Россия празднует 75-летие победы над фашизмом

Президент Владимир Путин в среду (24 июня) провел большой военный парад на Красной площади в Москве в честь 75-й годовщины победы над фашизмом во Второй мировой войне.

Подразделения некоторых бывших советских республик, включая Армению и Азербайджан, а также из Китая, Индии, Монголии и Сербии, также приняли участие в параде. В мае президент Владимир Путин неохотно отложил большой ежегодный праздник из-за пандемии коронавируса.

Прошло 75 лет с тех пор, как тогдашний СССР победил гитлеровскую Германию. Вторая мировая война стоила более 20 миллионов советских жизней.

Меры по изоляции в Москве были ослаблены в этом месяце, что позволило провезти парад с участием танков и ракет большой дальности.

Некоторые лидеры бывших советских республик также принимают участие в параде, но президент Азербайджана Ильхам Алиев и премьер-министр Армении Николь Пашинян решили не участвовать в нем из-за текущей ситуации вокруг пандемии.
