80 ANOS DO DIA VE
Dia da Vitória na Europa assinala a queda do regime nazi
May 8, 2025 - O 80º aniversário do Dia VE, que assinala o fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial na Europa, após a derrota da Alemanha Nazi, está a ser comemorado por vários países do mundo.
VE Day marks the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany to the Allied forces on May 8, 1945, bringing an end to the war in Europe. With few veterans of the conflict still around to attend reunions typically held on key anniversaries, the 80th VE Day may have been the final major opportunity to honour them.
The ambassadors of Russia and Belarus will not be invited to the German parliament’s commemorations of the 80th anniversary, over concerns they could “exploit” the event for anti-Ukraine propaganda.
Russian president Vladimir Putin, has frequently drawn on the legacy of the second world war to justify his invasion of Ukraine.
