This international event marked a milestone in the history of humanity and is celebrated every year by the Russian people with a mass military parade in several scenarios of the nation, especially at Red Square.

On May 9, 1945, Hitler’s German signed the armistice in Berlin, thanks in part to the efforts and perseverance of the republics that made up the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).

According to historical records, the heroism of the officers and soldiers, along with the extraordinary resistance of the civilian population, halted and destroyed the Nazi war machine after a series of military victories, including Stalingrad and Kursk in 1943 and Operation Bagration in 1944.

Contrary to historical evidence, the hegemonic culture industry is trying to distort and rewrite history to the detriment of the huge and decisive contribution from the former USSR to defeat fascism and end World War II.

The celebration of Victory Day over fascism also took place on a day on which the 64th anniversary of the reestablishment of diplomatic relations between Cuba and the USSR, later maintained by the Russian Federation, is commemorated.
