Berlin Marks V-E Day As Russia's War In Ukraine Continues

BERLIN, GERMANY - MAY 08: People hold and wave the Ukranian national flag as they attend a memorial hour at the Soviet war memorial in Tiergarten park to commemorate the 77th anniversary of V-E Day, or Victory in Europe Day, which marks the 1945 end of World War II in Europe, on May 08, 2022 in Berlin, Germany. This year's commemorations are tempered due to Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine, which has revived for many the horrors and imperialist ideologies of World War II that most Europeans thought were a thing of the past. The Tiergarten park memorial is one of several Soviet memorials in Berlin that commemorate the thousands of Red Army soldiers, among them Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians, who died in the final push to crush Nazi Germany and take Berlin.
