Punalippu reports that Victory Day was celebrated on Tuesday, when 78 years have passed since Germany's memorable surrender on May 9, 1945. Four years earlier, German imperialism, in accordance with its fascist program, had attacked the first fatherland of the proletariat, the socialist Soviet Union. That was the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, which turned the Second World War, which began as an imperialist war, into a great anti-fascist war.
Activists put up posters in Tampere commemorating the day.
