Victory Day preparations are in full swing in Vologda Oblast.

A meeting of the state officials led by First Deputy Governor Alexei Sherlygin was held in the local government. It was devoted to celebration of the 70th anniversary since victory in World War II, which is due in 2015. It should be held at the highest possible level and a profound content should be attached to it, Alexei Sherlygin said. He proposed to set up a steering committee that will supervise preparations for all the events related to the 70th anniversary of the Victory Day.

May 9th is the main holiday of Russia as a victorious power. On this day Russian people will always honour the feat of heroism of war veterans and grieve for those who fell in action or were tortured to death.
