World War II 65th Anniversary

"In 1945, not only a military but also a great moral victory was achieved, a common victory," President Dmitry Medvedev said in a statement. He said the soldiers of various countries "is evidence of our common readiness to defend peace, not to allow the revision of the outcomes of war and new tragedies." The parade was a tribute to the role the Allies played in what Russia called the Great Patriotic War.

American Soldiers

American military personnel wore dark blue uniforms and carried the flag and past the tomb of Vladimir Lenin. It was an amazing sight as they saluted Russian leaders with the Kremlin towers in the background. However, some Russians believe that the foreigners are not celebrating the end of World War II, but the end of the Cold War.By: Kara Gilmour
